Mojo Monday 209

Good Morning!  I hope your Sunday is off to a good start!  We are hanging out at home this morning...shhhh...we skipped church...don't tell anyone!  :)  We had a bunch of friends over last night for dinner and we stayed up way too late!  It was a lot of fun!  So I didn't have time to get this post ready until now!  This weeks Mojo sketch is a fun one!  Here is my card...

IMG_3393_edited-1

And here is the sketch or at least how I see it...

I used Verve's Bloom and Grow for my homemade background paper.  I stamped several of the blooms with different colors of my most favorite ink right now...Amuse!  Then I took PTI's Text Style and stamped over the top in True Black.  The sentiment comes from Verve's Kind Words.  I added a bow and some flowers to go along with the sketch details and that's it!  

Anything fun going on today?  It's a rainy day here in Kansas and oh so well needed!  I am thinking its gonna be a lazy day for sure!  Again...well needed!  Hope you have a great Sunday too!  So glad you stopped by!

    So do you miss Denver? We live in Breckenridge and had our first snow this week. We moved from KS 30 years ago.

    Laurie, I love the color combo - so beautiful! Sorry to hear about the rain! :( It has actually been quite nice here that last couple of days. Today I took my mom for lunch after taking her to the candle store - it was a lovely day! Hope you had fun too, friend. :)
