MOJO Monday meets Mosiac Madness

Visiting a dear stamping friend yesterday so this Monday challenge was finished on Tuesday :)
   At first I thought flowers and had some paired up with the background paper but it just didn't strike my fancy sooo I went with the Mosiac Madness stamp set.  I paper pierced the mosiac punch shape by hand.  Layed a punched shape down then pierced around it after stamping the inside.  thanks for coming to look and I hope it inspires you to try a challenge even if you do give it a "twist".

A little western

Something western,  made this card for a challenge a while ago and just didn't think it looked complete,  so the other day I decided to finish it up and now I like it.   The star brad is not stampin' up so I never submitted this one.  BUT  I'm pleased with the outcome.  Thanks for stopping by.

Double challenge fun!!

My card is a combination of a Freshly Made Sketches 89 and Pals Paper Arts 160,  you can get to their pages by clicking on the  "button" on the left side of my page. The FMS is a sketch to follow and the PPA is a color combination so I combined the two.  Love these two colors together they are bright and cheerful, great color combo for flowers!!  I took the liberty to add a neutral piece to match my bakers twine.  thanks for looking, have a great day!

Best of Butterflies - MOJO296

Another week is here, what will we do with it?  Hopefully it will be a good one.  The sketch for this week is one I've never tried before, I decided to use ovals instead of circles since I used the Best of Butterflies stamp set. (hope that's okay with the sketch designers)  I stamped the butterflies on Vellum, I like how you can see through the vellum to the DSP paper behind.  Have a great day and week!

CCMC254 and FMS88 challenges

this card is a combination of two challenges, create with connie and mary (CCMC254) and Freshly Made Sketches (FMS88)  I have a card similar to this one on the previous post and when I made it I thought of these 2 challenges that I hadn't made anything for, sooo   I whipped this one up.  Thanks for looking and if you want to know how the white topnote layer is made I have directions on my previous post Something Quick on Saturday #3. 



Something Quick on Saturday #3

Hello!!!  I have had the stamp set I used today on my quick card on my desk for quit  a while and decided to use it!!  Wanted to do something a little different so I die cut(top note) the back of the card the same as the front so that when I mounted it the color would show through.  Cut another top note out of vanilla and then cut it in three pieces and layered it to fit the starfruit piece, ran it through the bigshot with the square lattice embossing folder to get rid of the cut lines. 


stamps; Lacey & Lovely,  swirls & curls verses (retired hostess)
colors;  starfruit,  calypso coral pad and marker,  costal cabana,  basic gray
big shot, top note die, square lattice emb. folder,  1 3/8 circle punch,  1 3/4 scallop circle punch,  stampin' dimensionals

Well that's it, what do you think?  IF you think it doen't look quick then you need to contact me for a lesson on stamping for this one really is EASY and QUICK!!
