Gettin My Mojo Happening With MOJO273!

WOW what an amazing Christmas I have had.  I am so lucky to have been able to celebrate and spend the day with my family and special friends.  Boxing Day in our house is always a relaxing day, so after a little bit of Boxing Day shopping I have sat down to spend some time playing in the craft studio.

I absolutely love designing for the DT's I am part of and for my classes at Scrappy Hollow but with all my assignments done I found today was a day I could just "play" with whatever I wanted.

Having not played along with many challenges of late I immediately headed over to Mojo Monday and found their latest sketch challenge to play along with.

One of my all time favourite card makers - Teresa Kline from the Mojo DT designed this sketch:

And here is the card I created:



I love Simple Stories papers and the Summer Fresh collection is a fave.  I like the country feel and I teams it up with some MME and October Afternoon patterned papers as well.

 
 
The doily was cut with a denim paper from the MME On The Bright Side collection and the blue worked well with the floral paper from the SS collection.  Of course I had to include a butterfly and rolled flower.  The MFT Royal Rose would have to be my favourite find of 2012.
 
 
Materials Used:
 
Papers:
MME On The Bright Side 6x6 paper pad
Simple Stories Summer Fresh 6x6 paper pad
October Afternoon Ring Around the Rosie 12x12 sheet
 
Dies & Punches:
My Favorite Things Die-namics Royal Rolled Rose, Dainty Doily Med
EK Large Punch - Butterfly
MS punch Med Branch
 
Grosgrain ribbon by Birch, TH Distress ink (Tea Dye), edge distressor, button and twine from my stash, Twiddleybits Itty Bitty Alphabet and 2 1/2  inch circle punch.
 

Thanks for stopping by!

Creating for Christmas

Just one final post before Christmas to share with you a few of the gifts I have created for work colleagues and friends.  For these projects I started with a pre made Christmas decoration and then altered it and added to it with handmade flower and embellishments.







 
 
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported me by visiting my blog and also another thank you to those who commented along the way as well.  I love what I do and appreciate you sharing the creative journey with me!
 
Merry Christmas!!!!
