Mojo Monday 103 - Recycle re-use!


For this weeks Mojo Monday sketch card, I used a cool technique using a coke can, that I found on the Cuttlebug blog. If you haven't tried this technique yet, you have too! The results are amazing, can't wait to try it with the rest of my folders :) I embossed the strips of can using the Mesh embossing folder and stuck them down with strong double sided tape. I have had the pp so long that I no longer remember what company it is by! I used CK Becky font (downloaded from Creating Keepsakes) for the Happy Birthday greeting and finished the card off with a strip of silver ribbon.

Thanks for visiting :)

Well for heaven's sake! I would never have thought to use a soda can to emboss. Thank you for the inspiration and the link. We certainly have enough soda cans around here - I'm going to try this really soon. This is a very cute card, too, Jessie. :0)

That is totally awesome Jessie! I have to try this. I have some rolls of thick foil that was given to me in different colors. I bet it would be great for this technique. Love your card.
