Mojo Monday #72


Mojo Monday #72

It's time for the Mojo Monday contest again! This sketch turned out so cute. This card has me so excited....you know when everything seems to fall into place? Very seldom does this happen for me, but this card did. Notice the "Be My Honey" in the heart and then the little bee flying by in the cirle punch? How cute is that?!! This was K&Co paper and it just seemed to work. I used dimensionals on the large rectangle and then again on the circle punch and flowers. Thought it needed something else so I added the red crystal dots to finish it off.

If only you could have seen me trying to photograph this card. I was inside and then outside, and back inside again. I always have trouble getting the colors to look right.

I used a Stampin Up stamp set for this card that I have had for a couple of years. When I first used it I was using colored pencils and now I have Copic markers. Does it ever make a difference in the way the coloring looks!

I'll quit jabbering now, but please leave a comment if you visit my site. I love hearing from you ;-)

A Quick Post


Hi on Monday! Hope you all had a good weekend and are all set for another week. I'm anxious to see all the new products that I've seen peeks of from CHA. Here is a card I worked on last night for Valentine's day. Any suggestions for what else it might need?

I had a nice surpise yesterday when I looked at Lauren Meader's blog....I won her birthday card organizer!! First time I have won anything like that. Thanks Lauren.
So, here is the card I made~

Can finally post this!


I made this card to send as a thank you, so I had to wait until I knew it was received. I haven't made many cards the last couple of weeks. I'd better get my MOJO going so I can get some Valentine's cards made ;-) Did everybody enjoy the weather today? At least in Illinois it was much nicer and a welcome change. Please leave a comment if you visit my site. I love hearing from you.

RAK from Gail!


I received a package from Gail today with the cute RAK card enclosed. She sent me some new paper that has a colored core. I love it! It makes me so happy to have something come in the mail ;-) Thanks, Gail.

Submission for MOJO Monday!

Well now...I finally got this card finished to submit for the MOJO Monday contest. I've never participated in any of these before, so it's new to me! I had fun making this; it's always easier when you don't have to come up with the layout. It amazes me how some of my favorite bloggers post daily. I must really be slow...

Need help

I don't remember how to add something to my sidebar. Can anybody help me? If I change the text it replaces what is already there. HELP!

It's been awhile . . .


I haven't made any cards for ahwile. I must have been worn out after the Christmas Cards! Today I did get around to making a card using a new set from Whipper Snapper Designs called Hello Neighbor. I love their stamps. It's been a boring day here. I haven't felt the best so we just stayed home all day. I did get alot done so that's good. I've been trying to record CDs from old VHS movies. I finally got one to work. I've had quite a time getting it going and it was supposed to be SO EASY. You know how that goes.
