I was looking for a card to send to a friend who lost her husband about 6 months ago. I just wanted her to know I was thinking about her. I loved the simplicity of the sketch and thought it fit well with the sentiment.

What a nice sketch to begin the New Year! I had this pot of flowers stamped to practice with my copics and I thought it went so well with the new teal color released last month. I just love the colors-they make me happy!

Maybe a get well card or thank you.

I thought this would be a great card to mix textures and colors. I embossed the background and then lightly inked over the embossing so that the texture would show through better. I randomly stamped a pattern on the square and then added a flower where the small square is shown. I'm thinking spring!

Aren't these fun colors? MFT has added 12 new colors, 6 last month and 6 this month. Since moving to FL the teal, limeade and peach really fit. I love the zebra stencil and the "wild things" that went along with the release. I used the stitch strip from BP 13 to make the angle cut match the rest of the card. The teal background BP 20 as was the body of the striped piece. The heart, cut 4 times for depth, is from BP 4. A little bling colored to match the strips with a copic marker, add the final touch!

The first Mojo Monday submission of the new year! Since it was published on Monday of last week, it is technically the last one of 2014. The last sketch of the month has been "tall and skinny". I had trouble with them at first, but now love them. I used some of the new colors from MFT and played a little with stencils, and embossing folders.

Comments are always welcome! Happy and Healthy New Year to all!

It has been quite some time since I have posted. I have made many Christmas Cards and finally finished mailing them. I wanted to do something different so a get well card was the choice. I love the blue/green combination. Hope it is cheery enough for get well wishes!

I really thought that I was finished with Christmas Cards, but found this Basic Grey paper called Evergreen and realized I had not used it on cards this year, so one more was born. After placing the beautiful paper, I did not want to cover it up. What to do? As I have been organizing since our move to FL earlier this year, I found the SU gold printed vellum, and the bling was added. I embossed the greeting with powder from SNS. I love the elegance of the card.
