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.

artchix vintage lady

My keyboard is still trouble - but these are for a swap over at ISC.

mojo & absolutely no stamping! eek!

These are Hallowe'en papers from MME.

'cuse the short post my keyboard is acting up and it seems as of half the keys are not working the first time! aargh!

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.

House Mouse for the Holidays

I had these images from a swap and decided to use them. They are for a HM Holiday swap.

The pp is MME, bazzill cs, ribbon from my stash, and coloured with my prismacolor pencils.

Clean and Simple - Christmas

These are for a swap at ISC - Clean and Simple Christmas.

I don't usually craft like this, I like lots of layers, but I am very happy with how they turned out.

I used another stamp set for my challenge - 8 Sets so far! This is an SU set.

I used my Tattered Angels screen in my Big Shot to emboss, and Zing embossing powder on the reindeer.

Asian Inspired Iris Fold

The sketch challenge over at ISC can be seen here
Hope that works;(

The iris fold was accomplished with my nesties oval, and I used metallic ribbon instead of paper.

I was able to use another un-inked stamp set, this time from Inkadinkado "Asian Characters". So, the tally is seven ink sets now used! The kanji stamp is from Prairie Rubber stamp, and I've used it before.

I coloured the image with my copics, after stamping with Memento ink, and the flowers are confetti from the $ store.

thanks for looking!

Butterfly Collage & Stamp Challenge

I'm on a roll here,folks!

The 4x4 chipboard collage is for the designer's lottery over at ISC, and features another un-inked stamp set, this time from Inkadinkado called Morphic Bugs, and ephemera from my stash.

The card is scraplifted from the current SU catalogue, from the front cover, and features two stamp sets, "Sense of Time", and "Elements of Style" which I've never used before. I also used two stamps from "Notably Ornate", so I am up to a grand total of six stamp sets for my challenge.

Details from the card include gold stickles on the frame, and crackle accents on the small clock face. The ink is Ranger and Versafine black.

thanks for stopping by!

Mojo Monday...on a MONDAY!

Imagine that, I finished a MojoMonday sketch on a Monday!

This is for a weekly challenge at ISC to use only flat stickers from our stash! When I started scrapping, I went nutso crazy buying stickers - surprise, I know, and when I look back at old scrapbooks, and cards, that was the only technique I had - the artful arrangement of stickers! So now, to go back to stickers is funny.

These are some baby stickers I had, I don't even know the manufacturer, and DCWV cs. The ribbon is from my stash. I used my cuttlebug nesties and the textile folder. Of course, the sketch is MOJO.

So, even though this does not count towards my self imposed stamp challenge, I'm glad I used up some stickers, and I think the card turned out pretty well!
