Mojo has returned

I was motivated to make up an Easter card for BIL & SIL - We will be spending Easter Monday with them.

I just love the LOTV images.

naked images (without kindyglitz)

flowers from Bizzy Becs.

copics used.

Circles were cut out with the CraftROBO, and sentiment printed using computer (Scriptina font) and cut out using spellbinders die on the cuttlebug.

I would like to submit these cards for the following challenges:

LOTV - Easter

All sorts - sketch

Creatalicious - pink, green, yellow, blue

Mad for Markers - BG, YR, RV copics

A little something .............. in pink

I was in a pink mood ;-)

Bizzzy Becs' current challenge is 'to make a little something' so I made this little thank you card.  It is small, 7.5 cm x 10.5 cm

It also fits in with the onestopcraftchallenge - optimistically pink
and flourishes - flowers

Now I really must get back to my tidying up.

Stamping Vacation Card Maze - Just Magnolia - OneStop

Hubby has been doing some work at home, so I have been left to my own devices ;-)
Ofcourse, I have been spending some time in my craft room.   I was originally doing a 'tidy up', but you know what that leads to .............. ;-)

I decided to give stampingvacation Card Maze a try and this is what I finished up with:

Tilda was recycled from an older card that I was never happy with my choice of card that I had placed her on.  ;-(  I think I like this layout much better for this particular image.

Had to get a close-up of these lovely flowers from bizzybecs

I even gave the inside some special treatment.

I am submitting this card for the following challenges:

stampingvacation - Card Maze #2

justmagnolia - birthdays

onestopcraftchallenge - optimistically pink

flourishes-timeless-tuesday-challenge-fttc55 - flowers

allsortschallenge - for mum

Bizzy Becs Creatalicious Challenge #5 and Allsorts Challenge #34 and ABC and CCT

I have finally been able to do some crafting in my new room - it is such a pleasure having everything in the one spot!

The following card is for:
abc-challenge  L is for layers
creataliciouschallenges - something old, new, torn & blue.
cutecardthursday - new stamp

The new is my newest Sarah Kay stamp and the old, well it is also Sarah Kay ;-) 

Sarah Kay has been in my life for more years than I care to remember!   The following picture is the invitation I used for my 16th Birthday way back in 1976. 

The eagle eyed of you may have noticed the mirror on the wall in the pics of my new room that have been posted previously - it was a present from my sister for my 16th birthday.

The following card is submitted for three challenges:

allsortschallenge #34 with a digistamp from http://www.digistampboutique.co.uk/catalog/

abc-challenge L is for layers
cutecardthursday - New digital image

This digistamp was a freebie and was a pleasure to use.  I will definitely be going back to have a proper look at their other stamps.

The Red on the ladybugs has been heat embossed using red ink & clear embossing, but it does not show up very well ;-(

More Mojo!

With my CraftROBO up and running, I took the opportunity to make up a batch of Christmas Cards using the mojomonday #117 sketch - I just love the way it comes together.

The white circle and red cardstock have been cut using the CraftROBO and the green strip was cut using Spellbinder Fleur de Lis die in the cuttlebug.  The felt hat has been in my stash for many years and cards finished off with gold peel off stickers.

Background pattern was purchased from bizzybecscardmakingscrapbooking and printed on gloss cardstock.  When printing, I used the 'plain paper' setting on my Epson Stylus R210 and it dried in no time!

Bling added to strip!

Another card using different background paper.

 
I am quite pleased with the way these cards have turned out - now to work on my last 10 cards!

Creative juices are flowing!

I have completed a few more tasks on my Christmas To Do List, so as a reward, I have been able to spend some time crafting ;-)

I have taken the opportunity to do some more Christmas cards, as well as fitting in a few challenges!

Red Square Card, patterned paper, spellbinders die Fleur De Lis, magnolia coloured by hand using water colour pencils, kindy glitz & bling added

I love the crispness of the Fleur De Lis die - it does take a bit of coaxing to get it back out though ;-)

This card fits these challenges:

BizzyBecs creatalicious challenges #4 - Christmas, snowflakes & sparkle

justmagnolia - Christmas

MagnoliaDownUnder - Bedazzled

Sarah Kay

Here is a card I made with the third stamp I purchased from BizzyBecs store

I just fell in love with this Sarah Kay image - it reminds me of the images I used for party invitations during the late 70's early 80's - I guess that officially makes me old!

I used several techniques to colour in. Some of the shading has been achieved by touching the brush to the actual pencil. Thanks Cheryl, that was a great tip!

I am really pleased with the way this image came together, so decided on a very simple layout for the card - I did not want to detract from the image.

This is a rare one for me! only a little bit of bling, and no Kindy Glitz! LOL
