This is my first MOJO Monday Sketch
Here is the sketch and my card for it. How fun it was to participate in this challenge. There is one sketch a week and I will keep doing them as much as I can.
I chose square!I used the Free SAB paper Welcoming Neighbor, Sweet Pea Felt Flowers, Melon Mambo Dotted Ribbon, and the saying is from Bella's Bloom. Inky Hugs, Sue
I was part of a non SU Valentine swap. Below is what I made. I folded a 12x12 piece of cardstock in half, free hand a heart and cut out. The placed a 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 sheet of card stock in center and folded around it. I was pleased with the way it came out.
Left is closed, right is open. Hard to tell the heart shape but it is! I received some wonderful swaps from everyone.
Love is in the air, here are some more samples from Leadership.
Sandy Hancock made the one on the left and Michelle Nickelson made the one on the right. Don't you just love them?!! Inky Hugs, Sue
All this week will be a Love week! I will be showcasing all kinds of Valentine samples. Most are from the Over the Top Swap that I attended and they are gorgeous! Here are the first ones and my favorites!
The one on the left was made by Missy Shipmen, on the right Wanda Clasen and below is a swap I received in the regular swap, but I love it. All of the products used in making these cards are in the Occasions Mini. Click here to view the mini. I wish I could figure out why my camera takes blurry pictures, some a just fine and others like the one on the right get blurry! Inky Hugs, Sue
I love to make Easel cards, they are so easy! Below are two cards that I made, one for a class and I got the idea from the OTT Swap and the other is using Vintage Vogue stamp set that is in the Occasions Mini catalog.
For the stopper on the Vintage Vogue card, I used the gem stones in the Eggcellent Eggs kit 117179 $9.95. I love everything in that kit!
Here is the link on how to make an Easel card.
