1st Cardabilites post up for today

It's time again for another new amazing sketch up on the Cardabilites blog

today.  Our new sketch is a fun one and i used lots of my favorite dies

and some fun Bo Bunny papers that i had in my stash.  We have a 

wonderful sponsor for our prize this month from The Stamping Boutique

so be sure and share your card with us on the Cardabilites blog and that

way you have chance to win and get lots of inspiration too!

For my card i used one of the gorgeous fairy stamps that they had and 

copied it a few times on my paper that i printed out so that i could layer 

it to give it more depth.  I colored it with copic markers and used 

diamond stickles to make it sparkle on the wings and on the flower.

Here is a photo of the sketch.  I changed it just a little bit so
that i could make the most of the digital design that i had.

And here is a closeup of the dies that i used for it.  I used different
Spellbinders dies and layered each of them so that i would get pretty
layered patterns with each of the colors.  I love this because it's bright
and filled with lots of pretty springtime colors.  One of my favorite
new dies is called Diamondessence and another one called Interlocking love
that i used for the border in green-- is so versatile and pretty.

And here is another card that i did with the same sketch and lots of
pretty flowers in my stash.  The papers for this are from Pion in Sweden
and i just love them.  I wish they made fabric just like it so that i could
decorate my scrapbook room with it.  I just love the Shabby Chic
look of things.  One of my favorite is called Royal Circle and it's
layered with a Scalloped circle and the Pierced Circles dies.  I really
love this one.  So that's all for today but don't forget to join us and
link up with your favorite design using the sketch to play along.

Have a really wonderful day.... Teresa
