Mojo Monday card

This is the card I did for Mojo Monday 143.  It's hard to see, but the patterned paper is a lighter version of the green in the paint chip flower.  I used the paint chip for a swap I'm doing.  Enjoy!

Card made for a Wedding

This card was done for one of my closest friend's mother's wedding. All the stamps are Hero Arts. I used Friend Definition for the background, leaving a blank circle in the top left area. ( I used the back of a scrap of white circle c/s from a nestie cut out).  I sponged the blank area with Pretty In Pink ink, then stamped the butterfly on DP, cut it out, and foam mounted the body only on the card. I added the pink pearls, and black ribbon.  Once I knew where I wanted the sentiment, I stamped it in Versafine Black, and made sure the ribbon was BELOW the sentiment.  I then mounted the white card onto a Pretty in Pink c/s base.

Mojo Monday card

Today I did the Mojo Monday week 135 challenge.  the yellow c/s is through a Cuttlebug embossing folder, the fancy paper is Japanese, the words are SU, the bird is from Fiskars.

A Masculine Birthday card

I actually got around to creating today.  I needed to make a birthday card for my brother in law, but I don't have many stamps that are masculine.  So I brought out a challenge, the Crazy 4 Challenges, and my Hero Arts stamps.  This is the result.  The papers are from a dollar store somewhere, and I used the HA Friend Definition on the harlequin background.  I used a couple of shells from the Antique Engravings for the focal point of the card, and I used the Happy Birthday stamp from Essential messages.  I hope my brother in law is pleased with his birthday card this year.

Birthday cards I did

Here are a couple of birthday cards I did. The Tulips are from Lazarworks studio. I inked them in Pretty in Pink and Mellow Moss, then stamped on pale pink c/s. that was corner rounded and layered on some embossed Doodlebug c/s that I've had sitting around. I inked the embossed parts with Mellow Moss ink. I rounded the corners as well. This was all done on a base pink c/s, again, with the rounded corners... Kristina Werner is really rubbing off on me.

The second card is a sketch, and I can't remember which one. I suspect it's a Mojo Monday sketch, but I am not sure. I used a funky patterned paper on Apricot Appeal c/s base, corners rounded on both. I then took a piece of the Doodlebug embossed c/s and use a strip of it upside down on the flower paper. I added some sticker ribbon to the top and bottom of it. I rounded two corners and added two green flower brads (Making Memories). I cut a circle out of Apricot Appeal, and stamped a HA butterfly in pixie pink ink. I added a flower brad, then foam mounted it onto the flower paper.

This is one of the few cards that I've made that has NO STAMPING on it. I used a beautiful flower from some patterned paper for the focal point, used a rub on for the words, then just did the corners with a layer of Cool Caribbean, then mounted it on a black square, then mounted it on a glittery hot pink c/s. I added some sheer pink ribbon and some charms.
