Mojo Monday 87 - Finally!


Hello everyone! I'm finally back with a new card! Seems like I've been gone forever! It took me a while to get my Mojo back and find some time to craft a card again. My sister left last Saturday and that was the inspiration for this card. It's been a week already and I am missing her so much. We had a blast while she was here.
Anyway, here are the details for the card:
The DP is SU's Parisian Breeze. I also used SU choc chip, whisper white and some cream linen from scraps for the coffee cream. The dye cut coffee mug and saucer are new from QuicKutz. I die cut the pieces and then put the cup and saucer in the QuicKutz goosebumps dots to texturize them. The cream in the coffee and the rising steam were put in the QuicKutz goosebumps swirls for texture and then sponged with TAC Pueblo ink to highlight them. I popped all the coffee dies with dimensional. The sentiment was created on my computer, cut out with a nestie square, sponged on the edges and popped with dimensionals so there really was no stamping involved in this card at all. I added the white dots around the scallop nestie circle. The border is punched with SU's scallop punch. Hope you like it!
Next week I might even get around to doing 2 challenges:)))

  1. Glad to see you back! Your card is adorable. I know what you are saying about having no mojo. Between work, having computer crash and just overall being busy, I've had no time! Looking forward to seeing you "busy" crafting again!
