Mojo Monday/MOJO306-You're So Sweet


Good morning, I have several things to share in today's post; first this is for today's Mojo Monday Sketch and for this months Verve Diva Dare. We are show casing Andrea and Christyne this month with a theme of Lots Of Layers. I have used the Verve set Bloom and Grow, I even layered the flowers when stamping them, I adore the outcome! I have also added an extra layer of ribbon and lace at the top, it seem to go perfectly. I kept my distressing to a minimum and went more with layers. I have played along with the Dynamic Duos colors...sweet! I have some photos of Lexi at the bottom, I have been meaning to share....enjoy!

I wanted to share another card created with the new Waltzingmouse Stamps that released today. You can get yours here. I used the set Big Day-Today sentiments, these are stunning! I played along with today's SCS inspiration challenge. I was inspired by the pillow in the photo, I am having custom pillows made for our sofa and bed and have had pillows on the brain.

Waltzingmouse Stamp-Happy Birthday

I wanted to play along with Seize The Sketch, this is their first sketch...yeah...so happy to see them getting started! I have used the new Mini Pinstripe stamp from Waltzingmosue, such a sweet background stamp, perfect for CAS! I have added a few strips of washi tape, so fun...I luv this stuff but I do not use it near enough. I played along with the SCS CAS challenge, inspired by a song; the washi tape and colors reminded me of the song Under The Boardwalk. The browns represent the boardwalk and the blue the ocean. The birthday sentiment and the dots are Waltzinmouse new release too; BIg Day...Today and Funky Flowers. Have a super fun weekend...enjoy!
