Mojo 133--Ooops!

I'll just say it.....I'm not perfect and my creations are not always perfect.  There!  I said it.

But for those of you that don't believe me, check this out:

See that big, gaping hole?  It's not suppose to be there.  I "thought" I could fit 3 brads in a row onto this card, but alas, it was not to be.  Sometimes less is more.

Here is the finished card with a few Photoshop fixes to make it presentable for you to see.

The patterned paper is from the Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper pad.  The stamp set is called Flower Fancy and it is on sale this month for 20% off.  If you like floral stamps, this is a great one!!!

You may have noticed a new sign up box for my newsletter in the top right column.  I am in the process of switching to a new email service for my monthly newsletters.  If you would like to be added to my mailing list or if you would like to continue to receive my newsletters, please take a moment to fill out the form. 

I am on my way to St. Louis to visit with family, spend some quality time with the kids and attend the Creating Keepsakes convention.  You probably won't hear much from me this week, but I'll be back next week with more samples to share.

Happy Stampin'

MOJO 132---It's a 2 For 1!!!

I have a little confession to make.....I am a hoarder of pretty papers & accessories.  When I first received the Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Pad, I just oooohed and ahhhhhed over the papers, afraid to cut them.  Crazy, huh?

And the Sweet Pea stitched felt.....well, I've had them since December and I just opened the package this week.

But, probably one of the items that I really regret not using sooner is the Chat Room rub-ons.  There are 90 different sayings that are perfect for cards & scrapbook pages, plus you receive a sheet of white rub-ons & brown rub-ons--180 sayings in all!!!  Amazing!!  I'm trying to use as many as I can before the Occasions Mini sales period ends on April 30th.  You definitely are going to want to add the Chat Room rub-ons to your next order.

Here is a close-up of the greeting from the card above.....

I think this is such a clever way to say "Thank You!" or Way to Go!".

So, after I cut into the Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper Pad, I just couldn't stop with one card.  Here is the second card I made using the MOJO Monday sketch:

Don't you just love this color combo? It is Pumpkin Pie, Taken With Teal, Chocolate Chip, and Whisper White.  The butterfly was cut with the Big Shot using the Beautiful Wings embosslit.  And check out the greeting...

 

Since both of these cards used a small amount of the Designer Series Paper, I also created some scrapbook pages with the scraps.  I'll be sharing those with you in my next post.
