Wedding Card MOJO82

Wedding season is just around the corner and I have a few cards I needed to get started on for upcoming weddings. When I saw the MOJO Monday sketch I decided I would try this for one of them. I had to really "play" with my shapes since they are not really squares. The aqua square is really a bit odd but I think it worked ok. I just didn't want to make the cake image a square so I had to get creative with my cutting!!! The cake is embossed in gold and colored with Copics, The papers are by SU. The Gold paper is by Recollections. I believe the cake is an old $1 Michael's stamp. The sentiment is a part of a SU stamp. The flower is a Prima - of course! They have the most gorgeous flowers in all shapes, sizes and colors.

Easter Decor

It's been a busy week but I managed to slip into my craft room and have a little fun while hubby and dog have hit the sack. I imagine it will be pretty noisy when I go to bed with a snoring competition going on between the two of them! Anyways, I saw this chick on SCS and had to case it from Laurie here. I added a little fibers to the wild hairs although you can't really tell from the photo. Then I decided to make a bunny to go along with the cute chick so this is what I came up with. Pretty cute, huh? Just a bunch of punches put together!

Mojo Monday is here!

I love Mondays because there are some great challenges to do and Mojo Monday is a favorite of mine! I love their sketches! Todays can be found here. I bought this Raggedy Anne stamp at a stamping show a few weeks ago and couldn't wait to use it for this sketch. The stamps are by Judith. The DP is by SU and Frances Meyer and the flower is a Prisma. There is a touch of glitter on the hearts and the bow in her hair but probably not visible in the photo. I used dimensionals to prop her up a bit. Have a wonderful day!

Happy Anniversary!

This is a special request I had from a friend wanting an Anniversary card. The sentiment was done on the computer and then the edges were done with a stipple brush. The DP is by K & Company and is very glittery so I decided to use pearls on the card to go with the elegant look of the paper. The leaves of the flowers are done with a punch. The charm is from my beading stash. Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

Flowerpot Card

What a fun card to make for todays challenge on SCS and the directions can be found here. The DP is by K & Company. The flowers are a Sizzix die cut made from my file of scraps. It's always good to use those up! The buttons were sewn on with silk ribbon from my sewing days. The flowers pull out of the pot with the sentiment on the inside card.

Easter Basket

It's so good to be back in my craft room! We took a few days off to go visit the Grand Canyon. We have lived here 11 years and had not been up there yet so I thought it was about time to do that! It was well worth the trip and so awesome! I have lived in so many states and I must say that Arizona is probably the most beautiful state. There are so many different terrains and they are all gorgeous. We went to a Dbacks baseball game last night and that was fun even though they didn't play the greatest. Anyways...this is what I made today. I saw it on SCS and here is the tutorial on it here. It is made from one sheet of 12 x 12 cardstock! Pretty amazing! It is a bit time consuming and really tests your patience! I don't think it is something I would want to mass produce!!! But, I am happy with how it turned out and I think this will be a "keeper" for ME!!! Have a great weekend!

SC222 Challenge Happy Easter!

I keep thinking I am done with my Easter cards and then one more challenge comes along that seems to work well with one of my Easter stamps...so another card is created! The sketch for this challenge can be found here. This was a super simple card to make and it turned out just as cute as the more time consuming cards! The stamp is by Penny Black and the sentiment is by Paper Salon. The DP is by Best Creation (egg print) and Colorbok (basket weave). The rick rack trim is some that has been in my stash for years and I finally found a use for it! I colored the bunny with Copics. Have a great day!
