More Monday Mojo




This card uses the JUGS challenge layout and the colors for the Inkspirations Challenge - So Saffron, Wild Wasabi, Rose Red, White. This image is an old retired one from SU, but every spring I enjoy getting it out and coloring it again. That also qualifies this for Jessie Rone's Forgotten Stamp Friday challenge. This was a different sketch and one I hope to use again. Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

PAPER: DP from 6x6 SU paper pads, Rose Red, So Saffron, X-Press It Blending Card

Lovely Lotus



It's a Saturday and I'm off work...that's a big YAY! The biggest down side of my job as a nurse is having to work every other weekend. I really treasure those when I'm off! This card had a rough beginning! I had to give the first go around the ax, but after a redo of the flower and the butterfly, it was acceptable - lol! This is for 2 different challenges:
Our Creative Corner - cut it out.
Inkspirations - sketch.
The stamp set was a bargain find at TJ Maxx as I was in the checkout line...an acrylic stamp set by K&Co for only $2.00! I colored the lotus with Copics (RV00, RV02, YG03, YG06, YG93), cut it out and popped it with dimensionals. Diamond Stickles were added to the center. The butterfly is a sticker by K&Co. I'm going to check out what's happening in Daytona next...should be interesting to see the new changes in Nascar this year.

PAPER: Gossamer DP by Memory Box, Neenah Solar White

Vintage Valentine




I combined 3 different challenges for this card:
Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge
Crazy 4 Challenges - Valentine card
Inkspirations Color Challenge - Cherry Cobbler, Baha Breeze, Black, White
I thought this DP fit perfectly for the colors, then added a paper doily layer. I crinkled the seam binding and added a stick pin created from SU's Pretties Kit. No coloring involved, so this went together quickly. It's been a busy w/e with having to work...going to bed is next on my agenda!
STAMPS: Love Notes (Verve)
PAPER: Tim Coffey designer mat pad (K&Co), Cherry Cobbler, Neenah Solar White, Black
INK: Versafine Onyx Black, Cherry Cobbler
ACCESSORIES: Modern Garland border punch (MS), Cherry Cobbler seam binding (SU), Pretties Kit, Bauble by Making Memories, Paper doily, Verve heart die
