Mojo Monday sketch

Hello all!
I made this card using this weeks Mojo Monday sketch.

Thanksgiving card

This is the first Thanksgiving card that I have ever made, as we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Ireland. That said I have a lot to be thankful for, my hubby being one, so I am going to give it to him. This weeks challenge on the PCMB is hosted by Sue and she challenged us to make a Thanksgiving card with a turkey, pilgrim or cornucopia on it. I got a beautiful digi image from There's magic in the air, and their challenge was to use the cornucopia image and a button. I also used this weeks Mojo Monday sketch, Papermania pp, button & gems and Victoria Cuttlebug EF.

Mojo Monday #107

This Saturday we will be celebrating my eldest sons 10th birthday. I can't believe how quickly the years have gone by. I made a card for him using this weeks Mojo Monday sketch. I always find it hard to come up with an idea for male cards and usually end up buying one instead. I'm ashamed to say I don't actually own any stamps suitable for male cards. In my defense the nearest craft store to me is about 100 miles away, so  I do most of my craft shopping online, and the online stores that I usually end up buying from, has a very small or no selection of male stamps. I found a really cool "for him" Papermania pp pad at the craft show that I went to last weekend. So for the card I used that pp, Bazzill & Coredination CS, my new "Stars" Cuttlebug EF and some BasicGrey chipboard letter stickers. I hope Adam likes his card :)

Another Christmas card

Sue is hosting this weeks challenge on the PCMB .Our challenge was to make a card using lots of sparkle, a decorative edge and NO stamped images. Instead of a stamped image I used a handmade flower made from tissue paper and outline stickers for the greeting. I also used BasicGrey pp, CB Swiss dots embossing folder (on the green strip),Papermania gems, gold ribbon & Colorbox ink and last weeks Mojo Monday sketch. I'm also entering this card into the BasicGrey embossing challenge and this weeks recycle challenge (recycle and re-use something to use on your card, I recycled tissue paper for the flower) on ISC.

Thanks for stopping by :)

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 :)

Mojo Monday week 102

For this weeks Mojo Monday challenge I used my new Inkadinkado snowman stamp that I received from my lovely friend Cheryl/Polarbear, isn't he cute? I also used my new Bow Easy (love this tool!) and ribbon that I got from my very kind friend Susan, from the Christmas in July challenge, my Cuttlebug (obviously, heehee!) and the tiny bubbles embossing folder, Versa mark atlantic ink and some glitter around the snowman to add a bit of sparkle!

Hope you all have a lovely day :)

Simon says stamp and Mojo Monday

This weeks Simon says stamp challenge is to make a Christmas card so I combined the challenge with this weeks Mojo Monday sketch. I used some of my beautiful new Basic Grey pp, that I won in the Christmas in July challenge (thanks Susan!) on the PCMB. I also used a Cuttlebug Swiss dots folder, Colorbox cranberry ink, ribbon and a Papermania flower and pearl gem.

Thanks for stopping by!

Mojomaria

For this card, I used sketch 100, day 2 from this weeks Mojo Monday . I love all of this weeks sketches but so far have only got around to using this one. I used Making Memories pp, Inkadinkado scaredy cat clear stamp, Papermania button, orange rick rack, black organza ribbon and glitter glue for edging.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Mojo Monday 99

I combined this weeks Mojo Monday sketch with Queen Lavenderblue/Vicky's pink challenge on ISC to come up with this card. A good friend hasn't been feeling the best lately and I'm hoping this card will help brighten her day. I used pink and green Colorbox ink, white gel pen for the stitching, glitter glue to edge the get well sign and foam pads to raise it, All Night Media get well soon stamp, ribbon, and the PP and button were a gift.

Hope you all have a great day :)

Mojo Monday 97 & ISC challenge

I got these challenges done nice and early this week :) I combined this weeks ISC challenge, which was to make a fall themed card with a tag and this weeks Mojo Monday sketch. I used K&C pp, Bazzill cardstock, Colorbox ink, Making memories ribbon & Papermania flower and buttons.

Thanks for stopping by :)

Mojo Monday 96

I've been away most of this week so I'm only getting around to the challenge now. I'm not sure if this card really counts for the challenge as the circle cutter seems to have disappeared ????? so I used a square instead and a cute perfume Hampton art stamp.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by :)

Mojo Monday Week 95

Here is my card for this weeks Mojo Monday sketch challenge. Loved this sketch!

Mojo Monday and Christmas in July!

Here is a card I created for this weeks Mojo Monday sketch challenge 94. I love this sketch and I know I am going to use it many more times. There is a challenge going on the PCMB board called Christmas in July. It's a great idea to get us started on our Christmas cards early and also to be entered into a draw to win a prize! Every card you make qualifies, the more you make the more chances you have to win :) So I thought I would make a card that I could use for both challenges. I used Doodlebug pp, Hampton Art stamp, Colorbox inks, Prima flower and CB embossed paper (thanks Patti!).
