IBSIC-#46



Here is my interpation of the colour challenge.

I used a Pink Paislee range of paper called Butterfly garden.
A green and white dot paper for the background layer and a sheet of dictionary paper. I inked the edges of all the papers. I used a chocolate brown cardstock for the mounts of each layer.
MFT dies where used for the doilies.  The foliage I cut from Cricut. And punched out butterflies then put tiny pink rhinestones on the brown butterflies. The pink edged flower was in my stash.

Thanks you for looking at my work.

This is the sketch for this weeks challenge:
Please go to http://mojomonday.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/mojo-monday-280.html  to see what others have designed.



I used paper from the Prima Botanical collection. As there are dragonflies on some of the paper I cut a couple out using vellum with my Cricut.
I also cut the foliage using my Cricut. I used 2 flat flowers from my stash and inked the edges, then put seven 2mm light yellow flat pearls in the centre. I used some cotten lace for the angled strip. Used a Fiskers border punch for the white trim.


Here is my take on the sketch.

Mojo monday 279

 Mojo monday 279 contest. 
It is the start of a new month. So it is contest week.
To play along I have to make a project using the provided sketch.


I thought I would try my hand at a monochome card.
Well almost!  I have a wedding  later this year so I am trying out several different styles for a card.
Below is my first attempt.


Here is my entry.



I have used silver as a theme colour with white.  I embossed the back white mount and also the vertical white strip. I added a wee bit of colour to some of the foliage by the white flower, which I put a silver dimante on. The sentiment is heat embossed in silver.

Mojo Monday 278

Wow the weeks keep going fast.  Time is just slipping away from me.
I have used Graphic 45 paper. Sorry I only know I used some from the Courosity shop. And dont know the other ones, as I used scraps from stash.
I have several layers in this card and enjoyed stretching myself to use as many layers as possible. 
I made the card with a male in mind who is into biking.

Here is the sketch for this week.
