Mojo Monday 260

Another Mojo Monday, this challenge really keeps me on my toes. 
For this week, I have an anniversary card for friends of ours. They are in their mid 70's, were child hood sweethearts and just got married 5 years ago.
I'm a little late, but they have been traveling  in their coach and we are planning a tiny surprise. Their wedding cake was carrot cake and we will have a small one or carrot cake cupcakes waiting for them at their house in the fridge with the card underneath.  Don't want them to think we forgot.

So, here it is, I'm planning on putting a piece of Very Vanilla inside for my message.
Colors: Night of Navy, Daffodil Delight, Very Vanilla.
Stamp sets: Friendly Phrases, Four Seasons ( Hostess set)
Also used, Perfect Polka Dot embossing folder
Scallop Edge punch
Floral Framelits die set
Bigz L Fun Flowers
Designer Series Paper Stacks (Pg 162 in the 2012-2013 catty)
Daffodil Delight Seam Binding
I used the very vanilla DSP over the Night of Navy card base, it has a very muted design. The center graphic and the leaves are both from Four Seasons. I LOVE that darling little leaf, and it's perfect for fall.
Thanks for stopping by.

I love this weeks sketch and I had never done a skewed card before, so I just couldn't wait to try.

Isn't that a fun sketch? So now here is my take on it.

I needed a birthday card and decided to try a color I hadn't used yet, it's from the new Incolors for 2012-2014, Primrose Petals. Otherwise I used Whisper white, and the Designer series paper patterns stack in Neutrals and inked the edges in basic gray.
I used a 2 1/2" circle punch and one of the Floral Frames Framelits.  The stamp is from the Hostess set Priority Mail which has lots of assorted cute stamps all in various shapes. It's a great all around set. For the tag I just cut a piece of white, after cutting it the size I wanted measured the center on the back side and put a pencil dot then just cut from each corner to the dot and inked it to stand out a bit. I used and Easy Events birthday stamp, it comes with it's own graphic, but I used my sponge to pick up ink from the pad, the new pads are wonderful for this stuff, they are so juicy, and just inked the sentiment. I cute the eat cake with my postage punch and we are done.
I hope you enjoy it and it helps to give you ideas as well.
Have a wonderful week!
