Monday Mojo 172

I am back today with another FAB sketch from Julee over at Monday Mojo! I do love this sketch as it has so many possibilities! Today I picked the CAS approach!

Here is the sketch....

Here is my card....(But keep scrolling because I changed this card and added more pictures!)

So I am running with the whole polka dot background thing! Cristina sooo inspires me with her use of polka dots so that is where I am getting some PD mojo!! I actually used my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig here with the PD's to get them just perfectly lined up!

So that is it for today! Hope it is a fantastic Friday!!

EDIT to original post:

Ok so I am back after staring at the first card over and over thinking I missed something!  What do you think about this version?

I added antenna and a little piece of bling! OH and I put a wider ribbon loop on!

I am thinking I like version 2 better!  What do you think?

Colour Q Challenge #66

I am playing along with the Colour Q Challenge today! When I saw Arielle's colors I was super excited! This is a fantastic color combo but just a little out of my comfort zone! (I know I say that alot but I always reach for red...and black...and kraft!) :)

Here are the colors...

And here is my card...

That fantastic little flower is from the MFT die! I got that from my super sweet friend Amy! I love that thing! I just use a quilling tool to twist them up so tight! So fun!

Check out the Colour Q blog to play along!

Have a great day!

So I was doing a little blog hopping for the first time in forever!  It was nice to have time to actually go through my reader!  So I found this blog along the way and a really super cute sketch!  You can go check out Jen's blog HERE!  And here is her sketch for January....

I had a customer call and request a special Valentines card. She wanted it mostly black, kind of "old world antiquey"...I am thinking to myselt...Can I pull that off? LOL!...so I found Jen's sketch, turned it on it's side and this is what I came up with! Not your typical cupid and heart Valentines Day card!

I used that Sheet Music IP again!  Love that thing!  I again smeared it with black ink and ran it through with Kraft cardstock!  To get the antiqued look I used Tim Holtz Fired Brick and Frayed Burlap!  Then I layered that with an embossed piece of black!  I thought the addition of the rose trim was fun!  I do love that stuff!

You will have to let me know what you think!  Hope you are having a great Tuesday so far!

Have a great day!

Happy Valentines Day

I am here with a quick post this morning! One more DeNami release card! I just love these images to make a quick, CAS card!

I used the new Small Heart Outline, Small Valentines Script and the Scalloped Square!  After adhereing the heart with a dimensional, I added some 2-way glue and red glitter!  Super simple!

Have you had a chance to check out the DeNami release?  Better stop over!  There are some super cute new images! 

Thanks for coming by today!  Have a great day!
