Cardabilites #95 is up today...

It's time for another new reveal from the fabulous

Karan Gerbers Cardabilites sketches.  I really had fun

with this one,  I am teaching a class next week so i thought

i would get in a little more practice with the flowers.

For my card i used some beautiful peacock inspired

papers from Authentique called "Dream a Beautiful 

tomorrow". It's a small 6x6 pad and it seems i am going to

these alot more lately.  I love the tiny prints and i really

like the way it looks for cards.  I kept true to the sketch
and just changed up the basic backround a little.
 I stamped and made my own flowers and curled them
ever so slightly and added some greenery underneath it.  

There is lots of wood patterns out there and I  think this teal one
 looks really nice paired with all the flowers. My saying is
"Good Things are worth the wait" from Verve stamps.
 I really like that too. 

Thanks so much for stopping and don't forget to
leave a comment to say hi and let me know where
you are stopping in from.  Our sponsor for
this month is Inspired by Stamping and Wow do
they have lots and lots of beautiful things on their site!!

of your beautiful creations using the sketch :)

Have a wonderful day...

Verve Stamp Challenge to share

I have recently ordered a few stamps from Verve stamps and now

i can finally join in with some of the challenges to win some more

hopefully.  I really love what they have and all the sentiments are

super nice and they have so many to chose from... Yep I could go

on and on talking about them... they are really great stamps :)

So here is my card for the challenge using dots and

here is the link for you to see what it's all about....

Verve Challenge

I used the mojo sketch from last week to create the pieces of my

card and then created my own flowers using 2 of my favorite

Spellbinders dies, Rose Creations and Blooms One and did

a little mixing and matching.  The flowers are also yellow

and white dots.  This was a really fun challenge to do.

Oh-- and the papers i used are from Authentiques' Gathering

6x6 pad.  I went back through alot of my old papers and pulled

out some oldies but goldies to use and found lots of good things. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day as always :)

Cardabilites sketch #89

Hi Everyone out there in craftyland :)  I hope that you all had

 a wonderful Christmas and are ready to relax and enjoy 

the last days of 2013.  I started to get all my pictures ready 

to be printed today so that I could get caught up with 

some pages and all that and realized I am just a little behind.  

But you have to start somewhere so I am getting it all out

to the printer and then getting busy this month and

next to catch up.  I had a great year and can't wait

to see what 2014 holds for me :)

So today I had a bit of time so I am joining in for the 

Cardabilites sketch for this month although I am a tad late.

   I did my card with a 6x6 paper pad by MME called

"In bloom" with pretty shades of pink, peach, yellow and grey.

I also used a new stamp from Verve stamps.  I have never

used them but boy are they great.  I ordered a whole bunch

with the sale going on now and they have really, really 

cute sentiments and other goodies!!  Can't wait to do more!

For the doily I made my own using one of the Die-D-lites

called Medallion Four.  I love these little beauties and think

I am going to have to get the whole set of them here....

 They are so cute and have the lots of styles and they

are small and fit cards perfectly....I really love using them!

and of course here is the sketch for this month--

I love the tab at the top and I think it would be super

cute to adapt for Valentines and put a pocket for sweets.

Hope all of you have a great day and thanks for

taking the time to stop and i would love to hear from you

if you would like to leave a comment :)
