Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #234

Hello Crafty Friends!

"ROUND CARD"

Here is my submission for the

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #234

and the

Made Especially For You Challenge -- Distressed Ink

I used A Happy Heart 6x6 paper pad by My Mind's Eye:

Inside

Back

So, for this card, I used the Cricut Craft Room Basics (preloaded in the Cricut Craft Room) to make the scalloped circle and shadow.  For the center circle, I used the "donut" from the Love You A Latte Cricut Cartridge.  I made a rosette using the Martha Stewart Scoring Board.  Cut the small circle center with the 1" MS circle punch.  I used 7Gypsies Binding Ribbon to tie the card, and for the bow.  To punch the holes on top and to set gold eyelets, I used my Crop-A-Dile.  I distressed all the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink by Tim Holtz.  I used foam dots to give each layer dimension.  Also, each paper was mounted on Kraft paper by Recollections to make it more sturdy.

BTW, we had a choice between 2 sketches:

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #233

Hello Crafty Friends!

"LAUGH OUT LOUD"

Here is my submission for the

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #233

For this challenge, all of the papers I used are from DCWV -- "Everyday" Extreme Paper Stack.  I guess if I put some of my scraps away, you guys would get a different color palette!  But, I do love this stack, so I want to use it all! :-)  Anyway, I used a Martha Stewart punch (1" scalloped circle), and 3 gold buttons from my stash to create the "flower".  I also used some pink and white twine, and a gold metallic marker to trace the edges so they would pop.  I used foam dots so the flower would have some dimension.  I also used a Martha Stewart border punch for the heart strip.  For the inside of the card, I used one of my trusty $1.00 stamps from Michael's.

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #232

Hello Crafty Friends!

"CONGRATULATIONS"


This is my submission for the

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #232

For this challenge, I started with a white card base.  The paperstack I used is from DCWV -- The Sweet Stack.  I love this stack! :-)  I used the Love You A Latte Cricut Cartridge to cut the cupcake, and I used the Cricut Craft Room to manipulate the figure.  If you haven't tried the CCR yet, what are you waiting for?  It's free and it's so easy and convenient.  Anyway, the ribbon is from my stash.  The sentiment inside is a wood mounted stamp, I colored "Congratulations" with a metallic blue Gelly Roll pen.  I made this card for a friend of mine who just graduated from college.  I can't wait to give it to her.

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #231

Hello Crafty Friends!

This is my submission for the

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge #231

For this challenge, I used a neutral 8 1/2"x11" cardstock, folded in half, as my base.  The patterned paper is from DCWV -- "Everyday" Extreme Paper Stack (LOVE this stack, can't you tell?).  I used the Love You A Latte Cricut cartridge to cut the circle and scalloped circle.  The ribbons and buttons are from my stash.  The pocket is from 7 Gypsies, I just covered it in the matching patterned paper.

Thanks for stopping by! :-)
