You Make Me Happy!

Posted on by

It’s Mojo Monday time and here is this week’s sketch…

Mojo 335 SketchThis is my take on the sketch. As you can see, with the countdown on until the end of Sale-a-Bration this month, I’m making the most of all the wonderful selections there are this year!

Mojo 335 - You Make me Happy - JIFThe three stripes I had created for last weeks challenge and after spending an hour this afternoon looking for just the right color, decided this was what the card needed as I didn’t really want a girlie-girl card. And of course this all had to be run through the Sale-a-Bration’s Decorative Dots Embossing Folder!

Onto the Basic Gray Cardstock I stamped with Basic Gray Classic Ink the arrow from the Petals Parade Stamp Set. I also used the semi-circle “leaf-like” stamp from this set for the Summer Starfruit Cardstock background.

Mojo 335 - Petal Parade Background - JIFThe leaves I punched in Pistachio Pudding Core’dinations from the Bird Builder Punch then did some accordion folding with a strip of the Pistachio to create the Paper Ribbon. The finishing touch was a cork flower from the Sweet Sorbet Accessory Kit from which I also added a couple of the arrow pieces to the sentiment. This too is from Sale-a-Bration, the See Ya Later Stamp Set which I stamped and sponged in Summer Starfruit Classic Ink.

Fresh Print Mojo 333!

Posted on by

After absolutely dreading today because of my extraordinarily long “to-do” list, imagine my utter dismay when at 2pm I found myself with the majority of chores completed thus able to begin today’s Mojo Sketch 333… WOW! This is the today Mojo Sketch 333.

Mojo 333 Sketch

For my card I began with a Whisper White Cardstock base, covering the entire front with a piece of DSP from the Spring Catty’s Fresh Print DSP Stack. I then added a strip of Pool Party Core’dinations Cardstock that I’d run through the Big Shot with, you guessed it, the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder (I know, I know, I’m addicted!). To this was added a piece of Soft Suede Cardstock  with the corners rounded and the edges sponged.

A Tea Lace Paper Doily was spritzed with Early Espresso then sponged lightly with Pool Party Classic Ink and Crumb Cake Classic Ink before being glued over the Soft Suede Cardstock with 2-Way Glue Pen. Onto this was added a piece of cardstock which had two pieces of the 3/8″ Coastal Cabana Ruffle Stretch Trim adhered with Sticky Strip. Onto a piece of Crumb Cake Cardstock I stamped a sentiment from the Spring Catty’s Perfect Pennants Stamp Set which was then circle punched, sponged and added to the ribbon with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

For the rosette I simply punched a 1″ Circle then with the ribbon, which already had the sticky strip attached, then beginning on the outer edge slowly wound the ribbon around into the center then finished it with a Large Rhinestone Basic Jewel.

Perfect Party Butterflies!

This was the Make & Take made at my first Sale-a-Bration Workshop for 2014 and as an added treat for each guest, for each card I used a different colored ribbon and matching butterflies. Dang, if only I’d taken a photo of all the different cards as they were just so pretty!

And by making them all different colors what a great gift for a family member or a friend. You could even go so far as putting a different sentiment on each one!

I {heart} You!

For today’s Mojo Monday my card could be given this Friday as a Valentine’s Card or could be given as an Engagement or Wedding Card. Here is the sketch.

Mojo 332 Sketch

For my card I’ve gone with a very basic color scheme of Silver Foil (on offer again in the Spring Catty) and Silver and Red Glimmer Paper. For the background I cut the Silver Foil to cover the entire front of the base card, then cut an inch from that. Putting this piece aside, I cut the remaining piece in half then embossed each half with the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder (yours free with any $60 purchase this Sale-a-Bration!). When assembling I placed the piece NOT embossed in the center and the embossed pieces either side

Mojo Monday Sketch 332 - Joanne Ritchie With the Hearts Collection Framelits Dies I cut two hearts from the Red Glimmer Paper, adhering one either side of the Silver Glimmer Paper tag I made using the wonderful new Scallop Edge Tag Punch available now in the Spring Catty. A piece of Very Vanilla 1/2″ Seam Binding Ribbon finished off the tag.

Mojo Monday Sketch 332 - Glitter Paper - JIFAcross the bottom of the tag I simply snipped a piece of the Silver Foil to give it a banner effect on one edge then adhered to the other end three of the beautiful Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons. This time I haven’t even added a sentiment as I think the red hearts say it all!

Gingham Garden Butterflies

Posted on by

When I first saw today’s Mojo Challenge I knew exactly what I wanted to do. This is today’s sketch for Mojo 331.

Mojo 331 SketchOf course what I created was something completely different to what I had in mind. Not that I’m unhappy with what I achieved, it’s simply NOTHING like what I had in mind. This is it…

Mojo 331 - Gingham Butterflies - JIF

For the Decorative Dots Embossing I used White Vellum then cut a banner from the Gingham Garden DSP which was lined with some Primrose Petals Cardstock. A strip of Primrose Petals 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon lies diagonally between the embossing and the cardstock.

Mojo 331 - Gingham Butterflies - Hello

The square of cardstock to go under the sentiment I chose in So Saffron then stamped in So Saffron Classic Ink with a stamp from the Sale-a-Bration You’re Lovely set. The stamp is a clean set of four little flower-like images but I stamped it randomly albeit always horizontally. The butterflies come from the Beautiful Wings Embosslits. Both the butterflies and the Hello sentiment from the Label Something Stamp Set have been edged with Dazzling Details.

Mojo 331 - Gingham Butterflies - Candy Dots

Across the top of the banner I’ve added some Tempting Turquoise Candy Dots (I thought I was adding Island Indigo but wasn’t if close, ha)just for a little something extra.

CARD RECIPE
Cardstock: Whisper White, Primrose Petals, Island Indigo, So Saffron, White Vellum
Stamp Sets: You’re Lovely Sale-a-Bration, Label Something
Classic Ink: Island Indigo, So Saffron, Crumb Cake (for sponging)
DSP: Garden Gingham
Big Shot: Beautiful Wings Embosslits, Decorative Dots Sale-a-Bration,
Envelope Framelits Dies
Punch: Ticket Duo Builder, 3/16″ Corner
Ribbon: 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon
Envelope: White Medium
Embellishments: Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Dazzling Details
Essentials: Paper Trimmer, Paper Snips, Sticky Strip, Anywhere Glue Stick,
Stampin’ Dimensionals, Stampin’ Scrub & Mist

Oh, and have yourself an... Inkee Fiddling Day!
