Mojo Monday

It's a while since I've done one of their challenges but I have saved some of the sketches for future use.

 

Image as before from Karen's Doodles (she has some fabulous images and I will definitely be going back for more!), the Father's Day 'badge is a freebie from The Creative Cottage I've used Promarkers again, papers are a magazine freebie by Nancy Watt and the ribbon is from my stash.

Perfect timing

Sarah from Passion For Promarkers has set this week's challenge and she has chose the theme of "Gratitude" which can be interpreted any way as long as you use Promarkers. I had a "thanks for being our bridesmaid" card to make and decided that I would use the Mojo Monday sketch too as I haven't joined in any challenges for a while (what with my lousy April and busy working life!!) So onto the sketch

This beautiful little image is a new release from DewDrop Digiz and are by a fabulous artist called Jade. The image is actually a bride but I thought she would look lovely as a bridesmaid as the card is for a teenage bm. She has been coloured with Promarkers (what else) and her wings and bouquet have been glittered using Glamour Dust. The papers used are from the gorgeous Sugar Dumpling range by Blonde Moments I've had these papers forever and came across them this morning whilst looking for something else :) the flowers are Prima, the sentiment is from Craftwork Cards border punch and the gems are from my work box. I used my latest MS to punch the border....I've got a few MS punches now but this one has to be my favourite and it cuts like a dream!

Thanks again for looking, take care

Mojo Monday

Another card from yesterday evening was made using the Mojo Monday sketch I really like these sketches as they are never fussy or cluttered, neither of which I do very well (which you would find hard to believe if you saw my craft room :)) So, DH is working tonight, he is dj'ing at a 40th birthday party so as usual I needed a quick card for him to give to the 'birthday boy'. 
Very quick and simple.

Materials: papers - Pink Petticoat and K & Co, ribbon - Ribbon Oasis, sentiment sticker - Papermania and everything else from stash

Mojo Monday

Another quick card which was part of an order, this it's an engagement card. My friend Jo came over on Monday and gave me a couple of sheets of SU paper and it is absolutely stunning! I think I may just have to invest in that when I next order ;) Very occasionally I cut into a sheet of paper when I first got it and this was one of those occasions, it just screamed at me to be used. For information purposes only.....the other sheet and the rest of this one will not now see the light of day for a while lol

Materials: SU paper- Bride (117991), silver mirror card, Sizzix champagne flutes, MS punch, flat backed crystals, white organza ribbon

The exploding box is part of the same order.

Materials: Papers - Making Memories and My Mind's Eye, ribbons - Ribbon Oasis, everything else from stash

Thanks for looking.

Mojo Monday 107

Good morning from a very sunny Corner. I have been up and working since 7.45...........on a Sunday?!!! Mad or what! I have an album I need to finish and am waiting on a delivery for a stationery order so I thought I would take advantage of the lovely peace and quiet (till the others get up) and catch up with some challenges. I'm still trying to fill the gaps in my card box before I go hell for leather into the Christmas cards. I still have a few left from last year so I will use those so that I can put the new ones into the shops :)

So, Mojo Monday is now on sketch 107 which is another great one.

Materials: image - Penny Black, Promarkers, papers - magazine freebies, ribbon - Ribbon Oasis,
gems - Papermania

One for the girls

for today, my card for the Secret Crafter which is "This week it's the lovely DONNA's turn to set the challenge and she has taken pity on us and chosen something that we all love. ONE FOR THE GIRLS Any creations as long as it's girl themed. Now you can embellish until your hearts content LOL."
and Mojo Monday's sketch challenges for this week.

Materials: Image and sentiment - Patti Picklicious, ProMarkers, Prima flower, Card Candy - Craftwork Cards

And finally, another commission. This time it was to make a 'ticket wallet' for Arctic Monday tickets as a birthday pressie but I had to incorporate the cd cover too. I decided to make it look like a cd and was quite pleased with the way it turned out. I have an album to do for the same person but that is Monday's job.He he, I've just realised that I forgot to edit the last picture. I'll do it tomorrow and upload it again.
I must get back to work now as I have a wedding fayre tomorrow and still have two seating plans to make and my stuff to sort.

Perfectly matched!

Mojo Monday and Passion For Promarkers :) I needed to make a couple of quick 'grown up' birthday cards and knew roughly what I wanted to do so it was great when I checked both challenges and realised that I could do them both with the one card.
Right onto this week’s challenge, which has been chosen by Caryn. She would like to see your ‘girly and glittery’ creations but you can use any colour promarkers (great for all you beginners who are still building up your stash).

Image- Debbi Moore Designs coloured with ProMarkers & Glamour Dust, papers-Blonde Moments and Bloom and Grow by MME,
sentiment tiles-Craftwork Cards, flowers-Papermania and Prima, everything else from stash.

I hope you like it :)

The following images and papers made by Liz at Pink Petticoat are just brilliant for 10 minute cards, which is usually all the time I have to make DH's cards for him to give to his B&Gs when he DJs at their wedding. He does have all his jobs on a wall planner in the office but I keep forgetting to look LOL
For the first card I've used another lovely sketch by Dawn on the ICS blog -week 25 (I will get last weeks and this weeks made tomorrow and edit this post ;) - I have a few birthday cards to make for the end of July (!) and August)
I've used
Pink Petticoat Elegance paper and the Happy Ever After toppers,
Bazzill cardstock
Flourish is QK Revolution
Sunflower from stash
This next card was made using the latest Di Hickman sketch. I haven't managed to do one of Di's challenges for a while so I enjoyed this one. Please excuse the poor photos but they were take at silly o'clock and I'm a rubbish photographer LOLThis card was made for the Mojo Monday challenge which ended today....I must try to remember to upload my cards when I make them otherwise they sit on my desk top till all I can see are little pictures, then I clear it off!

It's bed time now so I shall come back tomorrow and sort the links.
Take care

Hello Cupcake

Mojo Monday Sketch #81

Papers are from Pink Petticoat, flowers are from Prima and ebay! the fab image is a freebie from Vanessa at Ellepiggo I coloured the image with Promarkers and added glitter to the icing and Glossy Accents to the strawberry, the spotty ribbon is from Ribbon Oasis and the bling is from my stash (don't you think that is a good way of saying 'I can't remember where I got it from?' :).

Another double

This time I've combined the Papertake Weekly challenge which is a recipe as follows

1 circle
2 ribbons
3 stamps or stamped images

with the sketch for Mojo Monday

........but I flipped it on it's side! Ok, so the three stamps are the large butterfly image (which is an unmounted stamp I bought years ago from ebay) coloured with Promarkers, the flower in the centre of the Happy Birthday (which is from the Papermania Marie Curie stamp set) and at the bottom right hand corner there is a flourish which I embossed with clear powder so it isn't showing very well (this one is from a Studio G stamp set). My two ribbons and one circle are self explanatory ;) Paper is Bloomers by Doodlebug.

And that's my lot for tonight.
TFL. x

Week 71


I've never been on this sketch site before but came across it last night. I liked the sketch and this is what I came up with.

Papers used are My Minds Eye and Colorbok, flowers are Prima and Papermania and the brad is from my stash.

This card also fits in with this weeks Stamp Something challenge which is Summer in Winter Well it's the end of January and we just got a foot of snow and ice!! So for today's challenge, let's all make something to add a little summer to our winter days. It can be a project with summery colors, a summer theme, anything that will warm and brighten your day.

I would say this card is definitely 'summery!'
