Mojo 96


Well, here it is Saturday already and I'm finally getting around to doing the Mojo sketch! It's been a busy summer! I struggled a bit with this sketch just trying to figure out which image to use, then after I decided on the image I had to sort through a lot of paper before deciding what would work with it.

Here are the card details:
The striped DP is Doodlebug design which I embossed with my "bubbles" CB folder for texture. The red and blue papers are Bazzill. I scored down the center of each blue piece with my scor pal for more texture. I cut my white image circle with my Making Memories circle template and mounted it on a nestie scallop. I double stamped the Mouse House image and colored both with my prismacolor pencils and gamsol, then I added some crystal effects to the balloons to make them shine. I popped the bunny and balloons of my second stamped image over the original on dimensionals. I drew over the balloon strings with my Sakura gelly roll pen to glitter them up a bit. The ribbon is from Michael's. I had to add the "Happy Birthday" sentiment to the circle because there was just waaaayyyy to much white space for me to handle LOL. I sponged around the edges of my sentiments with SU real red and added the brads for a bit more color in that great big white space:) I also pierced around the circle edge. This is as clean and simple as it gets for me folks. Hope you like it.
