APRIL 30, 2012 *** MONDAY




Good Morning friends,

As you know I love these Mojo sketches and they are a great way to get your mojo going on a Monday morning---
So here goes my inspiration.
I chose the square - pretty obvious ?



What a great day today, the sun is shining early and the fog has lifted.
If you look closely at the background of the base of my card you will see flowers and faces. I used Jenni Bowlin malted milk ink to put the image from Asian Flowers (Paper Trey Ink) and the
princess faces ( peachy keen stamps) on to the base to form my own background paper.
I wanted it to be very subtle and I think I was successful.
For my base I used fine linen, then Terra cotta tile, Kraft , aqua mist patterned paper.
and vintage cream for my ribbon. I used the Fiskars punch for the punched border and 
spellbinders labels 4  of course I had to add liquid pearls my new favorite. The I love you sentiment is from My Pink Stampers " Lunch Box thought"


Challenges:
MOJO: sketch
DCD: pearls punches/ or pins
Peachy Keen: Make your own background  
Kraft Journal: Use any sketch challenge (I used mojo) 
Amusing challenge: Anything goes
Pile It on: Mother's day no flowers 
The paper players : Tic Tac Toe-- I chose  a square card, ribbon, and designer pape.



I hope you all have a Blessed day and Hope you enjoyed my project.
Hugs Diana
