Two Challenges/Two Cards

Hello my friends,

Last night, my dear friend Michelle came out for a visit. Well she was here, we decided that we should make some cards. Sitting on my table was this week's Mojo Monday sketch and the colour challenge for Pals Paper Art. So we decided to use them as our base for the cards.

The first card was designed by me. My greeting is from the stamp set All Holiday! I used the Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Paper along with Chocolate Chip, Bermuda Bay and Melon Mambo card stock. The stamp set was coloured in with my markers.  Can I just tell you that I love these colours together!!!

 

So next card that I want to share with you was designed by my friend Michelle. Michelle loves to add distressing and glitter...it's like her signature to all her projects!! She used the stamp set Cheep Talk. Check out the branch on her card...yes that is actually a branch from my tree!! Way to cool.

 

Now my friend Michelle doesn't have a blog but feel free to leave her a comment here. I know she would love to hear your thoughts!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a super duper day!!

Mojo Monday #87

Good Morning my friends,

Last night, I had a chance to work on Mojo Monday's sketch for the week. This sure was a fun one!! I have looked at this stamp set many times in the catalogue as I think it's so cute, but have never purchased it. I borrowed Under the Stars from my friend, so that I can make some cards with it. I might have to get this one if it's not on the Last Chance List. What is the Last Chance list....it's the new name for the Retiring List of stamp sets. This list along with the retiring accessories list will be out on June 1. Only 10 more days to go....to see what products are on list!!! Once they are gone, they are gone for good!!!

The circles were cut using the new Circle Scissor's Plus cutter. This is a must have tool, as it's makes cutting circles so easy!!!

 

Recipe:Whisper White, Old Olive and Chocolate Chip card stock, Watercolour Crayons, Blender Pen, Good Morning Sunshine D.S.P, and the Circle Scissors Plus tool.

Mojo Monday # 86

Happy Friday!!

I'm so glad it's the weekend and the best part it's lonnnnnnnngggggg weekend here in Canada. I'm so looking forward to spending sometime with my family on our deck, so let's hope the weather is nice.

I had a chance this week to work on Mojo Monday sketch. I really liked this one. I found that it work better with a square card then a regular size card. I decided to work with the colours of Kraft, Kiwi Kiss and Basic Black.  This was one of the cards that we made for my stampers's 6 group. 

I really like the Trendy Tree stamp set.  I found that in order to use this stamp set you really need to use the Stamp-a-jig to line these tree's up. 

 

Recipe: Kraft, Kiwi Kiss, Basic Black and Whisper White card stock, Urban Garden Oasis D.S.P, Trendy Tree's stamp set, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White and Basic Black ink, and Scallop Punch.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!

Mojo Monday Sketch # 76

Hello,

Last night, I had fun working on the new Mojo Monday sketch. This is one of my favourite layouts and I will  be using it again. My inspiration for this card came from my friend Heather as I just love the colour combo that she used.

The colours in the new Parisian Breeze Specialty paper rocks!! This new paper is a textured card stock, and on my gosh it has my new favourite colour combo together Chocolate Chip, Baja Breeze and Kraft.  I can't stop using these colours.

I used the new stamp set Thoughts and Prayers. I stamped the tree image onto Kraft card stock with versamark ink and then sprinkle clear embossing powder on it. Then using the heat gun, I embossed the image. This gives a clear shiny look to your image. It's like having  tone on tone. I'm really pleased how it turn out on the card.

  

Recipe: Kraft, Chocolate Chip and Baja Breeze card stock, Parisian Breeze Specialty D.S.P, Thoughts and Prayers stamp set, Chocolate Chip ribbon and ink, Clear Embossing Powder, Heat Gun, and Versamark ink.

Have a super day,

Anne
