Mojo Halloween


It's been a while since I've done a Mojo Monday sketch so it's about time I take a stab at one again. Here's my take on this weeks sketch with a Halloween theme.
The cool spiderweb paper is by Paper Studio. The scary bat and dracula are from an old SU set, colored with copics. The cute little "Boo" is from a Gina K Halloween set and is backed with a nestability. The spiders were created with an EK success punch. The goo border is from Martha Stewart. I also used a couple of CB embossing folders on the green backing and the pomegranate paper. The ribbon is something from my stash. Thanks for taking a peek.

Anniversary Card




Just a quick post today of the anniversary card I did for my daughter and her husband. I used one of my clear acrylic stamp sets and cut out and popped the monkeys and the vine. For the background, I used the branches embossing folder by CB and then brayered over the embossed paper with brown ink. The sentiment is from SU and stamped on a Spellbinders die cut label. I used some scrap yarn to accent the label. I've included a picture of the inside of the card as well. I created the sentiment on my computer and then cut it out with a Spellbinders Nestability, backed with brown paper that I hand cut.

On to Halloween cards.

Birthday card for friend



Hi all! I'm finally back from a wonderful vacation in Alaska. It was absolutely gorgeous...a trip everyone should do at least once in their lifetime. Can't believe I ate seafood everyday and I'm still not tired of it.

I'm here with the first of what will be several posts for upcoming birthdays, get well wishes and anniversaries.

Today I'm posting a birthday card for a dear friend of mine. My DP is from Stampin Up, featuring barely bannana, pumpkin pie and bashful blue. My stamp images are from various clear stamps sets I own. I believe the sentiment is Stampin Up. Nothing too fancy here, just lots of layering and a little glaze pen on my cake icing and ice cream cone. I added some EK corner punches to accent my sentiment. I'm also including a peek at the inside of the card too.

Now I have to spend some time checking out what all of you have been doing on your blogs while I was gone.
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

Get Well Card for Friend


Just a quick post of a get well card for a friend who had knee replacement surgery last week. Hope she gets a kick out of it.

The image is "House Mouse Designs" by Stampabilities. I colored it with my copic markers. Then I layered different parts of the image for dimension. I used some nestabilities for mounting and the cute DP is by Paper Studio. I created the sentiment on my computer.

Bday card for friend



Just a quick post of a birthday card for a friend of mine who has a dream of owning a white lab puppy. I found this cute puppy picture out on the internet and thought it would make a perfect birthday card for her.

Nothing too fancy here, just some nestibilities for mounting my picture on and the EK success paw border punch.

I hope to be back with another card sometime next week. I've been busy working on rehabing my new hip. Things are going very well and I even cracked out my bike a week ago Sunday...not even 8 weeks out of surgery.

Best wishes to everyone in the U.S.A for a safe and fun 4th of July celebration!!
