Almost the same card as yesterday - same sketch - almost the same papers and the same stamp again paper pieced rather than coloured.
This time however I used a large 7" x 7" gatefold base card and instead of embossed panels I've used some of the stunning striped vellum from the paper pad I used yesterday.
The vellum is attached to the plain blue card panels using tiny bits of super strong red tape hidden under the diamond trims at each corner. The 'With Love' sentiment is one from the paper pack as is the paper used inside the card. As I said yesterday, I think that although I got the pad on the market it is originally Kanban and I must admit it's so useful as it has plain card, loads of matching paper designs some with silver trim, vellums and even matching sentiment tags. Definitely one to buy if ever you see it around.

Looks like you'll have to go the market again and see if you can get some more of the paper pads. Looks lovely and really useful. Not seen anything like that when I've been crafty shopping. Another lovely card with that very sweet image. Bet she wants them both.

Another winner in this one. I don't use vellum enough and not sure why as your card is gorgeous with it. Thanks for inspiring me.
Love your color palette, don't you love it when you find papers that you just fall head over hills for.
Thanks again for sharing at Sweet Sketch Wednesday.
