Mojo 193

Well i really liked the sketch this week and I am super excited that i am getting to post before the end of the week. As always i chose to do the square card as i am a fan of square....I think it would probably take me all week to make the circle one.


So this weeks sketch


So with this card i actually started with the flower. I cut out the white petals individually then laid them out and glued them together, using the white flower i drew out the red to layer in behind finsihing it off with a yellow button. 


I used K &Comapany-Wild Saffron  designer paper for the picture frame and finished it off with some clearance ribbon from micheals. 

Have a great rest of the week and Thank-you for taking the time to stop by.

A late Mojo 192

Well  I am very late getting my Mojo up but again at least i'm getting it up before the next one. Well i am not over joyed with this card but i am really having to dig deep right now and try to create. I'm not a big stamper so i have very few word stamps and they are always to big for whatever it is i am making and so with this card i had to write out my word "Congrats" it needs some tweeking as i find it is to bold for what was suppose to be a pretty card. I am also finding that i never seem to have my focal point piece so i am also having to create with whatever i have or leave it blank for now....anyhow enough crying from me (big smile) it is fun trying to brain storm up something...just gets time consuming.

So this weeks Sketch

My attempt



I trust you are all having a wonderful week and if your weather is anything like ours i hope you are staying dry and warm.

One for the weekend!

Well here is a card i started last week and well it took me a few days...not because it was difficult but again this was another card i had started and had nothing to finish it off with. So the paper i had used on this card got me inspired to make paper flowers so for 3 days i was trying to make flowers. I am not sure if i got what i wanted when i had set out to do this card but over all i am happy with it.



Thank you for taking the time to stop by and i hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend.

Cheers!

Mojo 191

Well i was away until today and let me just start by saying it is good to be home :) So i am now very late getting my Mojo up but as they say "better late then never". I just quickly threw this one together today, i am usually one of those people who starts to lay out before ever sticking anything down but i find it usually takes me forever. So what i have been trying to do as of late is start sticking everything down as i cut it out that way i can't change my mind a million time :) So it doesn't always work but it saves me a lot of time.

So here is this weeks sketch

Here is what i came up with

Supplies:
Paper: recollections and K&Company Specialty paper
Ribbon: Making memories-Animal crackers
Embellishments: Recollections bird and epoxy stickers

Hope everyone had a wonderful week and continues to have a great long week!

Thanks for stopping by!!

One more for Mojo 190

Well i always plan on making 2 each Mojo but sometimes time just isn't on my side. However i had time today to make another one while my little man was sleeping. Again  i didn't have the perfect thing to finish it off but i have it all together and ready for that final touch.


Again this paper is from that K & Company paper pack, the tangerine color is Micheal's recollection paper, the mini rose and the butterfly are recolllections as well. Again i tinted the ribbon which is also from Micheals. I put a few of the recollections pearls on a few of the flowers as well.

Again Thank you for taking the time to stop by!

Mojo 190

Well finally i am able to post my Mojo! I tell ya there just isn't enough time in a day. Well i have to say i really liked the card while i was putting it together but after finishing it and spending more time looking at it, I'm not sure.  I know it is not 100 % completed but i didn't have an embellishment that i thought suited the card so i will put my finishing touches on it when i am ready to give it.

 So i had used some paper out of a K& Company paper pack just not sure as to which one as it was one my mom bought. Added some Micheals Ribbon out of the $1 bin and some buttons also purchased at Micheals and i curled up my own flower and cut out the piece with the flower with my cricut.
                                                            This is what i came up with

I hope everyone is having a wonderful start to the week and i hope everyones weather is as wonderful as it is here.

Thanks you for stopping by!

Yay!! I'm back!! My attempt at Mojo 189

Let me just start by saying it feels good to back online and joining in again for Mojo!
Well i felt like i was starting back at square one here it just seemed i couldn't put anything together. So this is actually my 2nd attempt at this Mojo. I hit a wall with the first and i can't really say i was liking where it going, so i went back to the drawing board.



I plan on making another but for now i just really wanted to get something new up for all of my wonderful visitors :)
I hope everyone had a great week and i hope it finishes off nicely for you as well.

Thanks for stopping by!
