Mojo Monday - Sketch 218

Hi Lovelies,

Yet again this is a second post in the one day.  Please feel free to scroll down or go here.  I am hoping not to make a habit of this. 

This card I made using the latest Mojo Monday Sketch.  I made a fairly simple card today.  I used my oval nesties & added a sticker then found some small scraps to add to the card base & a stamp (no idea who made it) for the sentiment.  I went around the edges of the sentiment & sticker with distress inks to help them pop.  At first I found the sketch a little challenging but got there  in the end.

Have a great week ahead & happy crafting xoxoxoxo

Mojo Christmas :D

Hi everyone,

I know it's been a while since my last post :(.  I don't know what I've been doing (well ok I do), but the time seems to be flying by so fast I can't seem to catch up.  Plus the days have been so beautiful here lately, that it's hard to be inside.  Today in amongst all the domestic duties I managed to make this card.  I used the latest Mojo Monday sketch. 

 

I have combined two challenges this week the sketch & Jingle Belles theme of Santa.  The other week Jingle Belles had a vintage challenge & I printed up a heap of Christmas images & this is one of them.  I put this together around the image & the scrap of BG paper behind Santa.  I also used some Rangers Perfect Pearls Mist (Forever Red) on the sentiment, just to tie it all together. 

Well everyone, I'm off to see what else I can do whilst everyone is out/asleep.  (I so treasure these quiet times lol).  Happy crafting xoxoxoxoxoxo

Supplies:

Distress Inks: Tumbled Glass, Broken China

Pearfect Pearls Mist - Forever Red (Ranger)

Basic Grey pp (scrap)

Silver corrigated paper

Red Brads (unknown brand)

Nestibilities - Labels One

Cuttlebug

Digi image

Mojo Monday sketch plus a show & tell

Hi all,

I've had a very productive day today (see below for my first post). I decided to make a card for the Mojo Monday sketch challenge here & this is what I came up with. I'm not worried I didn't make the deadline, as I had fun making this card.


I thought I would do a show & tell so you can see one of my scrappy cards being made. I know every one probably does this but thought what the heck, lets give this a go ;). I cut out a dark scrap of c/s slightly larger than the light c/s. I wasn't worried that there would be a chunk missing from one side. As you can see I had used this piece for other projects. Unfortunately the second pic is on it's side the computer is having a hissy fit - must be the heat. But you get the idea of what the scraps look like attached to a card base.


I then repeated the above step for the smaller pieces again not worrying about a chunk missing from the side.

As you can see below the "missing bits" are completely covered by the ovals. I then added all the extra little bits & bobs at the end.


Thank you so much for sticking through this post till the end. Have a wonderful week full of crafty fun - TTFN

Mojo Monday Challenge

 

Hi all,

I am so happy :D!!! I made another card that I can honestly say I love. This card was made for the Mojo Monday challenge here. I decided to use the same stamp set from yesterday. I stamped the image three times & coloured in certain areas so I could raise parts up simular to Paper toll. The hand with the spanner is actually raised up three times. I also added Glossy Accents to the spanner just to give it that bit extra shine. If I been thinking I could have used my Twinkling H2Os to give the spanner a metalic look. Maybe next time.

This card is also made from scraps. So far I've been been very good & not cut up any new papers. My filing box is slowly emptying out - I think I've broken the "breeding cycle" of my scraps ;D.
