Cardabilites sketch #75 is up...

Today there is another beautiful sketch to get inspired by

up on the Cardabilites Blog

and I did a really cute card today to put up.  But first let

me share the sketch with all of you....

 I stayed pretty true to the sketch this time

and used a new paper pad I got from LOTV.

I love vintage papers and this one had alot

of patterns and they all went perfect together.

For the backround of my card I used

Spellbinders Labels 29 and for the red

and the dotted pieces I cut and embossed them 

using Labels 30.

 I decided to make my own flower 

to match and layered lots of inked petals from the

Blossom Two die.  And of course I added some

foliage and the flags and a really simple adhesive

 sentiment from Mrs. Grossmans.  

And for the envelope I even went ahead and embossed the flap

with an embossing folder.  I like it and know

exactly who I am going to send it to next month.

Thank you so much for stopping over and 

be sure and join us and make your own version

of the sketch and post it up on the blog :)

 For my second card I used a 6x6 pad with a travel theme.
It has lots of pretty red, whites and blues and some really
cute tags to use.

Have a great day,  Teresa
