Mojo Monday 250


Ooh La La! I couldn't wait to do this week's Mojo Monday sketch because my new Close To My Heart products arrived today! I love all the new paper packs, but La Belle Vie has to be my favorite. The colors are so yummy together! (can you tell by all my exclamation points that I am thrilled with all the new CTMH goodies). I don't want to give too much away before it's available August 1st, but let's just say that I'm lovin' the black tulle and bling together with this paper pack. Watch my blog for upcoming posts regarding additional new products...you won't want to miss it!

Mojo 249

Lately whenever I have been creating cards, I seem to always reach for Close To My Heart's Pemberley paper pack and coordinating stamp set, Card Word Puzzle. The colors seem to work so well with anything I am working on, plus with 57 words included in the stamp set, it makes an endless amount of possibilities for whichever phrase you desire. For this card, I simply put Happy Birthday. When I need to grab a quick birthday card for someone, I will be set. I love the versatility of this stamp set because it has a few flower images and a butterfly too. I stamped the flowers on coordinating cardstock and used the blending pen with Outdoor Denim ink to shadow the flower images and make them look dimensional. Finally I popped the bigger flower on foam tape to make it stand from the others. All of this was built on a base that was cut on the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge. I also used the stitching ruler to go around the edges of the layers to make them stand out. I finished it off with pearls scattered around the card.

Here is the Mojo sketch:

Mojo 248




I had purchased these little birds nests a while ago and couldn't wait to find the right project to use them on. Recently I was shopping at Michaels and came across this paper that had the birds nests on it along with french script. I knew that the two would go perfect together. The blues are so vibrant and I was happy to see that it matched perfectly with Close To My Heart's Crystal Blue cardstock. I added a couple of feathers and embossed a piece of cardstock using a script folder to create more texture and tie the card all together.

Supplies used:
Close To My Heart Crystal Blue & Black Cardstock (www.clearlycreativepam.ctmh.com)*
Close To My Heart Black stamp pad (www.clearlycreativepam.ctmh.com)*
Recollections Birds Nest paper (Michaels)
Prima Flowers Cradle Robin Nests (Hobby Lobby)
