Mojo Monday 99

I finally did a mojo challenge in the same week as the sketch! Pretty simple but I like the colors, and had to try my new modern label punch!

Christmas in August?!

I just got a ton of new Christmas paper....yes I ordered every Christmas DP that SU has, I just love it all! I am trying to design some different layouts so I can do a Christmas Stamp-a-Stack.
The stamps are from Snow Swirled (SU) It is hard to see, but I embossed the snowflake with silver shimmer, and wrapped the silver elastic cord around the 1/4 in white ribbon. Not crazy about that, so will change it on the next one!

Rolling...

I used the masks from Tim Holtz again to sponge the background and also used the matching "sprocket" hardware and spinners. This page only cost me about $60 to create!! Of course the grungeboard that I painted silver is also TH, not sure where I got the acrylic arrow from but I sanded it and sponged it with some denim distress ink.

My little drooler

For this layout I used the Tall Tales DP and Animal Stories stamp set to stamp the elephant (I meant to stamp the whale but didn't even notice until now!!) in versa mark in the background. I stamped the outline alphabet on brilliant blue cardstock and cut the letters out. I also added some paper piercing at the corners of the old olive background as well as the picture mat.

The big 13!!!!

I made this card this morning for my oldest son who will be 13 tomorrow, I can't believe it!!
I was using the MOJO 98 sketch for inspiration. The stamp is from Stampers anonymous, which I embossed to match the texture of the paper, and the Grunge board numbers are Tim Holtz...papers are from SU. I also made a little envelope for the gift card on the inside.

Quick page

This page came together quite quickly. I used a die cut phrase which matched the paper (the orange piece is the reverse side of the dots), distressed the edges a bit and inked them....cut out different size circles with my punches from the left over scraps, added some bling flat beads above the phrase, and done!

2 days old

Since the weather has cooled off, I have finally been able to get back in my craft room!
