Card Patterns sketch 67

Hi dearies! Made another easel card over the weekend for cardpatterns sketch 67. Making cards has definitely become more easy and interesting after shopping at Itsy Bitsy. Earlier I would have to think over a card for hours on end because getting a chic/pretty look with limited choice of papers and embellies was tough ,given that we have so little options of craft papers and embellishments here in India. Making a good card with little is also a challenge in itself!!
Well enough of whining , here's the recipe: the design papers are from Itsy bitsy and so are the die cut alphabets.The flowers are stamps from hobby Ideas.Hope you like the card!

Itsy Bitsy rocks!

 I finally got a chance to go to Bangalore..and how could I not  make it to Itsybitsy! I had reserved one day for the trip to the place given I was staying almost at the other end of the city...but it was truly worth the time and effort.The place is absolutely fabulous!I shopped around for almost an hour and found sooo much fun stuff!

I made this card for the following
