Whew, squeaked in a Mojo today – thank goodness I did my Sketch Frenzy Friday card yesterday… though – I must admit I am really not so impressed with my Friday card, it looks so simple beside the Mojo. How does that happen? For one thing I think its because the Mojo sketch was pretty detailed and also that I used a high quality Designer Paper for that one. You get what you pay for, right?
And here is my (very simple take) on this sketch:
I don’t know the make of paper but the stamps are from TPC Study – Celebration. You really cannot see the shimmer and glimmer of that little gift, I should have taken a close up pic but I took this indoors because the day was so grim outside. The FUN part of this card is that my SIL Judy and I are doing this one together! I am trying to hurry hurry to scoot over and see what she’s created, bet its fabulous!
This sketch made me work much harder and this is our “family” challenge – my sister Nina, sister in law Judy, her beautiful daughter Sam and I all do this challenge.
Here’s my version:
Ok, so cracking out a brand spanking new good quality DP helps – this is mainly created from a BoBunny – a gift of love paper. Two sided, the paper matches nicely. The bulb is the only part that’s from the scrap of a paper I fished out from my last project – no name can be found.
Another of my “frizzly” sheer bows – I draw my heated embossing gun over the ribbon from a fair distance and it makes it go curly. Adds that vintage look.
And just a few posts ago I gave YOU the cut files for this pretty ornament! Add a little golden twine and it dresses things up perfectly.
Thanks for stopping by. I’m working on some more cut files for YOU in the coming days – stay tuned!
Your Mojo card is stunning Barb, that bow is spectacular. Love the designer paper too. Your sketchy card is fun. I love how you and Judy are exploring new and wonderful sketches.
