mojo monday/mojo426-peace


ETA: I use a 12 x 12 sheet of card stock for my tall & skinny cards, the size is 3.5" x 6"...fits perfectly in a business size envie!

It is tall & skinny week at the mojo monday blog, I so luv making these tall & skinny cards; I use a regular business size envelope to mail these, fits perfectly! I have used a watercolor background splitting the two colors keeping with the gist of the sketch. The stars are a Verve die, it is called starry die and it is on SALE! The peace is a puffy sticker, darlin....be sure to check out the other mojo makers blogs for more inspiration. Add a little glimmer to your life...sparkle & shine, kindness!

mojo monday/mojo425-peace


For today's mojo monday sketch, using the sweet reindeer stamp from Verve, I luv these deer! The set is called unto us, a darlin set! There is also a matching die set, super cute for cutting out; I stamped them and then sponged around the tag. The tag die cut is also Verve, it is called tagged rectangle die. I added some heavy ink splatter on the center strip of watercolor paper. The "peace" is from a piece of designer paper I cut it out. Add a little glimmer to your life....sparkle & shine, kindness!

I am stuck on thee colors, they are the colors I used for Christmas, so it seems all my Christmas cards are taking the same color combo! I so luv the blue with the mix of green, I am definitely a blue/green/aqua/mint kinda of gal...lol. I have water colored the sweet patch of color with tim holtz distress inks and a water color brush, so easy and so much fun! I added a few stamped stars as well, as gemstone stars, and die cut silver glittery stars. I used the MFT blueprints #4 die set, there is a perfect shaped star in this set, I cut it out and then used my tim holtz scissors to wonky cut away some of the sides to give the star a little character, I sooooo luv how they turned out!
