This is my fav card that I've done in awhile.


All the pp is Basic Grey 'Curio', the stamp is from Unity, and the seam binding & vintage button are from my stash.


The sketch is from Mojo - thanks Julie!

DH 's Valentine

Mojo - Snowmen Gang


Another stamp set inked - this is #20! This set is from SU.
The sketch is mojo, and I coloured the image with my copics.
The snowflake embellies are all from the dollar store, as is the feather. The pearls are a wedding pearl spray. The sparkle on the snowmen is Ranger stickles.

An Orchid Greeting


Another stamp set used - this is a Stampendous set called Orchid Greeting. The sketch is *kinda* the latest mojo.

An Ugly Card

This is for a birthday challenge over at ISC - use up some UGLY patterned paper - here's mine. Believe it or not this is K&Co paper! Just to be on the safe side of UGLY, I added the ugliest embellie sticker I could find! Gaak!

My challenge for this week over @ ISC

It's my turn for the challenge at ISC this week, so I've posted a 'felt' challenge.

Any card, any occasion, homemade felt embellie, or purchased.

I made this ghost with a cuttlebug die, the Quickkutz grave yard embossing folder, some white ink, and a Studio sticker. I inked the punched moon with 'Going Gray' from SU. The ribbon is from the dollar store.

My 17th Wedding anniversary


October 23, 1993 was sunny and warm, and the perfect day for a fall wedding! Here's to my dh. We had a perfect anniversary yesterday.

Nick's Bday Card


He'll be driving soon, so I went with a car themed masculine card. Most of this card is from Tim Holtz & Ranger.

WCMD A card for my brother


This is loosely based on the Mojo Sketch, and features an Inkadinkado stamp set called "Road Trip" - number 18!
I coloured the image with my copics, and the stamped background uses SU ink. The stamp set is from Autumn Leaves, and I use it all the time!
The inside of the card reads "You're not old, you're retro"

WCMD ...ARTCHIX ATC


A simple ATC - the image is a cs sticker from Tim Holtz, and the wings are Wilton leaf cake thingies!

Happy World Card Making Day!














These are the cards I made today for all of the challenges over at ISC for WCMD. Gemini Jen has donated some awesome prizes for the challenges!
All told, I have used 5 new sets of stamps for my challenge - so I am up to 17 sets! woohoo! Three SU sets, one CC designs stamp, and one Fiskars set are now inked, and I can let go of the guilt!

Mojo 157 & two seasonal cards



Both of these cards use the latest Mojo sketch (thanks Julee), and both are for challenges over at ISC.
The top card uses a previously un-inked Inkadinkado set (that's 11 so far!), and the bottom card used spellbinder nestie dies to create the pumpkin. Oh yah, the SU wheel was previously un-inked so that's TWELVE sets! yipee skipee!
I used my copics to colour both images.

Mojo 155 & Swaps Galore!



I loved this sketch so much I made two different ones! Both of these cards are for swaps over at ISC.
Here's the MOJO sketch that they are based on. As always thanks to Julee at Verve for the great sketches and to everyone at mojo.
Both images are from swaps so I can;t count these cards for my stamp challenge so for the record I'm still at ten stamp sets.
The top card is also for the weekly challenge over at ISC.
The cs is all Bazzill the pink patterned paper is BG the other is MME. I coloured the HM with Prismacolors and the Tilda with copics. Everything else is from my stash.
thanks for looking! I love comments so drop me a line

Fall Birthday.. A brayer approach


I am on a roll...another stamp set used - ca ching, that's 10 so far. This one is from Inkadinkado, and it's called "Fall Season", and this is the most posting I 've ever managed in one month!

I used Ranger Glossy paper, brayered 3 colours of SU ink, and then stamped the tree.

All of the leaves- fiddly - were then attached. The sentiment is from "Watercolor Trio", and i've used it lots 'o' times!

Mojo 154: Round or Square?

Round of course!

Note to self: when you use a nestie to create a round card, try to arrange the scallops so that the card sits straighter! lol

This is a crafty secrets stamp that I have never used before, so I'm up to nine stamp sets inked up!

And, this mojo is rocking on a MONDAY! two weeks in a row! Of course, next week it is back to school, so I'm sure to be posting on Sunday, right before the deadline!

This is the first time I've tried some vintage 'new to me' binding tape. I love the bows I've been seeing around the web, and picked up some today at a second hand store - 50% off today, so I got nine packages of ribbon, lace & bias tape, all kinds of colours, all different lengths, for $9. Each pack contained at least two spools of 'finds'.

The cs is Bazzill & SU Whisper White, Memento & copic, and a button from my stash. Punches were Fiskars & EK Success, and of course, my cuttlebug.
