Mojo Monday Sketch #123

Hi there,

Today's post is for the Mojo Monday Sketch this week.  I also used the Colour Challenge (to use Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie, Riding Hood Red, Old Olive) for a new stamping Group I signed up with ESAD-SU (Extra Special Australian and New Zealand Demonstrators) . 

                                                      

After cutting the card and papers I sewed them onto the Bashful Blue base. I punched 5 1" circles to make the button and then pierced the holes into it. I applied glue over the top piece and sprinkled it with the fine glitter. For the flower I cut a thin strip of card, punched it with the Eyelet border Punch, crimped the whole strip and then draged the piece of card over the White Craft Ink Pad to give it more dimension. For the leaves I punched them out with the Small Oval Punch, scored them in the centre, then crimped them at an angle.

Supplies:

Stamps: SU's On Your Birthday

Card & Paper: Riding Hood Red, Pumpkin Pie, Bashful Blue, Sweet Always DP, Holiday Treasures DP

Ink: Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive Markers, Riding Hood Red Stamp Pad, Craft White Stamp Pad

Embellishments: Brads, Fine Glitter, Hemp, Ribbon

Tools: Sewing Machine, Mat Pack & Piercing Tool, Scallop Edge Punch, Eyelet Border Punch, 1" Circle Punch, Glue, Dimensionals, Crimper, Small Oval Punch, 1 3/4" Punch, Pop Up and Mini Glue Dots

I enjoyed playing with these colours and doing the sketch, hope you like it.

Hi Stamping Friends,

Todays post is one of the Collections I have been working on. I just love this Parisian Breeze Designer Series Paper, it gives each design such an elegant feel.

The Tucked Away Box is one of Lauren Meader's templates and available from Papertrey Ink. It is a fun, quick and easy box to make.  You can see how I punched the edge of the tag with my Martha Stewart Embossed Scallop Punch and then used the tag punch from SU.

Mojo Monday Sketch #98, Almost Spring

Hi there,

It's still winter here so I decided to brighten my day and yours with a very colourful and bright card for the Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge. I had heaps of fun creating the design.


I stamped and cut the butterfly out and mounted it with glue dots. Cut out the nestabilities shapes and while the cutout was in the nestability I ran the metallic gold pen around the edge, then matted the focal piece with the dahlia shapes. I stitched the ribbon together to make a bow and attached it with glue dots. Added the crystals and it was done.
