thinking of you card



I made this card using the Mojo 124 sketch.



I intended to use this sketch when it was originally posted on the Mojo Monday blog but I didn't get around to it. Actually I have a tendency to print out sketches and not use them right away. Oh well I still liked how this one turned out. I am also entering it to the Moxie Fab challenge.

The stamps are by Unity. The butterfly punch is Martha Stewart. Pearls are by Reflections (I believe they are the Michael's brand). Papers are by Making Memories.

Wonderful You



I created this card for the Tuesday Trigger on the Moxie Fab Blog. The card used for the trigger had a lot of yellow. I tend to shy away from yellow but I am happy with the result. The stamped sentiment is from the October Store Kit of the Month by Unity. I used a Martha Stewart border punch along the bottom of the kraft cardstock. The pearls are by Prima.

Oh Alice Challenge




I found a new challenge blog called Oh Alice. The challenges are based around Alice in Wonderland. How fun is that? The first challenge was to get inspiration from this awesome make up kit:



I broke out my Shroomies stamp by Queen Kat. The sentiment stamp is by Unity from the November 2009 Kit of the Month.

Here is my take:



I really enjoyed this challenge and I can't wait to see what's in store for the second challenge! Thanks for stopping by!

Another challenge card

I used this weeks sketch at Get Sketchy for my challenge card. The stamp is by Unity Stamp Co but I can't link to the set. I received the stamp set free with one of my KOM sets. The sentiment says Your dreams are just beyond the Horizon.



Here is this week's sketch:

Hello!

It's been sooooo long since I blogged. No good excuse just life getting in the way I guess. Sometimes things just get a little crazy. Hopefully things are settling down. Anyway this week I will be sharing a project I worked on recently. I made a special book for my Mom for her 50th birthday. I will post a few pictures each day. I am hoping this will keep me blogging on a regular basis.

Mojo 111 - Owlways in my heart

How about a little Mojo Monday on Sunday. LOL! It feels like I have been unable to create for so long. I was sick with the flu for the last week. I finally felt good enough to venture in my scrap room yesterday and I came up with a card for this week's Mojo Monday challenge.

Here was this week's sketch:



And my take on the sketch:



Isn't that owl just adorable! The owl and sentiment are from the October 2009 Kit of the Month by Unity.

enjoy IHPBB2

Here is the Day 2 card I made for the challenge for the birthday celebration over at I {heart} papers! The challenge for Day 2 was to use a non traditional fold. When I checked out Design Team member Deb's blog: With a Stamp and a Song she had a link to this tutorial: Spring card tutorials I love the look of this type of card so I decided to try it:



I used some American Crafts paper I had in my stash for the card base. I used Nestabilities Classic Squares for the image square and the pink square. These Nestabilities can be found in the I {heart} paper store here: Nestabilites Classic Squares The cupcake is from the Mix Up of Cuteness set by Unity also found in the I {heart} papers store. I used grape stickles on the frosting and Glossy Accents on the cherry (both also found in the I {heart} papers store).

Birthday Wishes IHPBB1

Here is my first entry for this week's birthday batch over at I {Heart} Papers! The Day 1 challenge was to use the colors from their logo: celery, light blue, rose and black.



I embossed part of the background with a cuttlebug folder. I punched the scallop square and added baby blue stickles to the scallops.(available in the I {heart} papers store here: baby blue stickles ) I added a party hat by American Crafts and bling on the hat. Some ribbon, a flower, another bling gem and the sentiment and done! The sentiment is part of the Love in the Air kit by Unity.
