Cardabilities Sketch Challenge with Lilybee Designs Patterned Paper

It is reveal day at the Cardabilities blog and we have a wonderful sketch to get you crafting for this week's challenge too, I hope you join us!

The Sketch

The Card

 

I love the patterns and purple colors included in Lilybee Design's Picket Fence collection, so for this card I paired a few different patterns for the background and flower with clean white and light purple cardstock to create this card.  I created the flower using a Sizzix Die and stamped the leaves using Papertrey Ink's Turning a New Leaf stamp and die cut set.  The sentiment was stamped from the Mega Mixed Messages set (also Papertrey Ink) and the Spellbinders die cut stamped with a coordinating Waltzing Mouse stamp in Certainly Celery by Stampin' Up.  Purple and white ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbons contrasted nicely with the patterned papers for this any occasion card. 

 

I'm looking foward to seeing what you create with this fabulous sketch and can't wait to see you over at the Cardabilities blog!

The Card

The "window" on this week's sketch inspired me to get out this darling "Learn" Bingo Card that I've had in my stash for well over a year now.  I paired the card with coordinating patterned papers from October Afternoon's Report Card Collection and completed the card with a flower creating using a Sizzix die that I also bought some time ago but had yet to try.  True Black cardstock and Ribbon and Stampers Select White cardstock from Papertrey Ink were also used on this fun card that reminds us that is almost "Back to School" time!  I just know this sketch will inspire you to create something wonderful and look forward to seeing what you submit for this week's Cardabilities Sketch Challenge!
