I absolutely love curves on a card. They are elegant and modern looking. You can also use the curves as inspiration for waves or sun rays. Enjoy this sketch, create, and have fun with it!
Take a moment and get some more inspiration from this sketch from the team below. Remember to leave them some love!
The attachment will print out to actual size of an 4.25 x 5.5" sized card for most computers. Printing directions are in the Master Thread linked above.

I'm afraid this goes beyond my abilities - I tried to run it off to size and then cut it out as a pattern and piece it together -- Did not work. I see a lot of other beautiful creations today! But I will have to pass.

Don't give up @Precious Kitty - use the sketch as an inspiration, it doesn't need to be exact. The curves can be a landscape, waves, clouds, sun rays, or even layered circles. Hope this helps!
Granted this is the toughest sketch I have ever done! And I know I said I couldn't do it - but then I pulled my big girl panties up and dealt with it! And a lot asking for help from God - but am pretty pleased with the way it turned out. Whew!

I am totally loving this sketch!! I experimented with the template and have come up with a nice and easy way to cut the papers. Here, with my first card, that I had to share now, I did each individually, or the left 3. The image is embossed onto the card base. Merry & Bright

Had fun creating this card- using Hampton Art's Berry Blast for my curved floral dp segements- and adding this image of Fluffles the cat, along with a handwritten sentiment on a dc hexagon. Finished with heart shaped cutouts. Here's Fluffle's Birthday Cupcake. TFL!

I just wanted to share my method because it seemed pretty easy to me. I cut 3 different dsp pieces 4" x 5.25" (Should have been 4 if I had looked at the sketch again). Then I found a spool of ribbon ( you could use anything circular that you can trace around) and layed it across my dsp ( the three of them stacked together). I traced my curves where I wanted them and then used my exacto knife to cut through all three thicknesses at once. You might want to hold the dsp together with removable adhesive while you cut. Also a rotary wheel cutter would be great for this.
Then just arrange your papers in the order where the pieces fit and you get three (or four) cards out of the work for one. Haven't put anything on my other card fronts yet. I'll have to see what I want to do with them.

Here's mine. When I laid those pieces down I thought they looked just like a hot air balloon up close, so I added another one so you all could see it my way.
