Pinterest inspired cards...

Good Morning!

Like most people, I have a Pinterest account and a ton of pins of cards that I like, or would like to make.  I've had this card pinned for a long time and this summer bought the spellbinders die used for this, Fleur de Elegance.  The card was made by Cathy over at Sew Creative.  I LOVE this card!!


I ended up making two cards, each a little different.  I used Heartfelt Creations paper.  The second one I made because I had found an image I had cut out a while back and didn't end up using then.

This is the first card...



This is the 2nd card, with the printed image...

Good Morning!

I played along with Tuesday Morning Sketches this week.  It was funny how this card came about, it has to be the fastest card I've ever made!

The sketch...

 I couldn't decide on what size the squares/diamonds should be, I cut them out on two pieces of card stock I've had for years.  (That way I wouldn't mind when I tossed them out.)  I had the patterned paper on my desk that I wanted to use already.  I just grabbed the butterfly image to make sure the size would work and my card was "born".  :)

I don't do square cards because they cost more to mail, so I made this a 5 x 7 card.

Final Mojo Monday

Good Morning,

I'm very sad to say this will be my final Mojo Monday post.  I've only been playing along a few years, but this has been the best sketch site (for me and how I craft) that I've found so far.  I'll still play along with Tuesday Morning Sketches, but it's just not the same.  (Good, but made mostly for stampers)  I'm happy Julee will be able to spend more time with her family, I completely understand why she's stopping the website and I'm happy for her.

Final sketch...

I made 3 Father's Day cards with this sketch...



If anyone knows of another sketch site similar to Mojo Monday, I would love to hear about it.  Good Luck with everything Julee, you will be missed!
