Mojo Monday 81

Mojo Monday time again! What a cool sketch challenge for this week! I love these two dp's, and it was really fun to be able to combine them into a single card. The dp is by Dena Designs that I've had a long time. I don't know who the cardstock is by. The base of the card is GA Pacific cardstock. I used the darkest purple for the first layer, then layered the next two layers... the yellow is on a soft pink and the stripe is on a softer shade of purple. Then I used the same cardstock on the top layers, alternating the soft purple onto the yellow dp and the soft pink onto the stripe dp. I used the dark purple as the scallped mat for the image. Mat and image cut with Nestabilities Circles and Scallops. I used Inkssentials Opaque White Pen to put dots around the scalloped edge. I used a pink Kaiser rhinestone on the left panel and Latte pearls onthe right. O used a dark purple Offray ribbon on the left panel and put flowers cut with Cuttlebug dies on the top. I couldn't resist that red button :) ! The right flower has a soft yellow button. The image is by Great Impressions colored with Copics.

And there you have it! Thanks a bunch for lookin'!

I {Heart} Sketches SFYTT

I think this little kitty from Great Impressions is adorable! I made this card for I {Heart} Sketches challenge. I colored it with Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol: crimson lake, jasmine, and peacock green. The phrase is from Stampin' Up. The flowers are Prima. I put a little red button in the center. The heart paper is from Creative Memories. The dark pink cardstock is DCWV and the base of the card is GA Pacific. I doodled around the edge of the image to add some interest, and there is velum heart paper over the phrase. Simple card but fun.

Thanks a bunch for lookin'!

Sunday Color Create #9, The Willow Garden sketch challenge

Well, girls, it's Monday! It's a tad cooler today here in Jacksonville, but nothing we can't handle. Still have on my shorts! Boy, the north has really been getting blasted this past weekend. Poor ND! Wow. Wish we could send them a bit of our sunshine!


I love this cute little dog house image by Great Impressions. I used it for The Willow Garden's Sunday Simple Stampin' sketch challenge for a CAS. I coupled it with the Sunday Colors Create #9 to use lilac and blue with ribbons and swirls. I used blue ribbonand some ribbon flowers that match from my statch. I used three Cuttlebug folders: The big flowers, the swiss dots, and one of my new border embossing folders. I colored the image with Copics and mounted it on Nestabilities square scallops after cutting the image with the matching square. I raised the image on foam dots.

Thanks a bunch for lookin'! Let's pray for those being affected by the winter storms in the north/northwest. What a mess!
