Mojo Monday 338, Easter Card

Good evening! Yup, it's taking me a good long time to get my Mojo cards done these days.  I'm still having health issues that do not allow for me to stand for very long, but here it is finally.

Of course I started with the Mojo Monday sketch.
I love it, how about you? But if anyone knows of an easy way to cut paper into odd shapes like this, I'd sure like for you to post your method.  Math was never my favorite subject and this just boggles my poor little brain. But I did get it done.

Next I hit my stash of DSP, and Daffodil Delight was high on my list since we are getting into Easter time.  I almost choose a pattern paper that was DD as well, but this nice muted piece just looked perfect to me. A softened version of Island Indigo.

The Delicate Doilies stamp set popped right into my hand, I didn't even have to reach out for it. LOL
I love this set, but I sure wish we had a punch that fit and punched out the small white spaces too.  I don't want much do I?

I used the 2 1/2" round punch for the doily stamp and thank goodness for the Circle framelits, as I was then able to die cut a slightly larger piece for under it.   I used the one inch scalloped circle and added the Petite Petals on top with a Candy dot just for good measure.

Couldn't decide on the banner color so alternated them and added Happy Easter from Delightful Dozen sentiments.

Sure hope you enjoy.   Thanks for stopping by and please leave a comment and let me know how you liked it and what your method for cutting these strange shapes is.

Mojo Monday 331, Hello





So here we are at another monday.   Doing the Mojo Monday challenge has made my mondays have a whole new meaning. Well, retiring didn't hurt either.

Here is the sketch, I decided not to go with the heart theme. I use many of my cards, and right now I'm also saving up cards as a gift to a church that has done so much for it's community. They love hand made cards and it helps them do what they do, so I need themes that will work for them.

I can't say enough great things about the new Petite Petals bundle! I love the smaller version of the flower a lot and there are 6 cute versions of the flower to stamp and punch out.

Instead of the little banner across I decided on a ribbon, I do love ribbon and haven't been using it much lately. I like how it adds to this card.

I have been eyeing this paper from the Fresh Prints paper stack in the new Occasions catalog for some time, waiting for just the right use, it's darling and would have worked well with hearts too.
I stamped the Hello from the Four You sentiment stamp set (130538) and punched out using the decorative label punch then inked the edges a bit so it would stand out.

Colors are: Whisper White, Real Red, Coastal Cabana
