MOJO403

Hi friends - super quick post here. I started this card on Monday and FINALLY got to finish it tonight - Thursday. Life just gets in the way sometimes - HA!

The layout is MOJO403 (see below), love these flowers from Great Friend and fab sentiment from Treasured Words. Playing along with Kathy's #thedailymarker30day2 challenge to color a bit each day and although I rarely have time to play, I did enjoy coloring these flowers. I accented the black dots in the middle of each flower with a sharpie and then added white dots. Love the striking colors with black; embossed the background for a bit more dimension and interest.



Thanks for stopping by - hope you have a GREAT Friday!

Hugs,

My Other Ride is a Pole!

Merry Christmas dear friends; I'm glad you stopped by! In case I don't get to see you again before the end of the year, we wish you a very happy holiday season filled with love, laughter, joy, family, friends...and food!

If you remember, I celebrate my birthday for more like a "season", not just a day! :D I have a very sweet co-worker that never says a thing about her b-day. Well this year our Activity Committee posts a sign with all the b-days for the month - a-ha, she could no longer hide. Besides, I had someone look up her b-day for me so I could help her celebrate this year! I took her to lunch and waiting for us was a large group of co-workers, she was so surprised.

Of course working so close together, we have lots of funny secrets so this card came together in a heartbeat and had me laughing as I finished. I used Julee's Mojo Monday Sketch #64 for the layout and my Inky Antics Holiday Girl.

The inside says "My Other Ride is a Pole" from MFT Stamps Twisted Sentiments. I once again used the puff paint, heating to get the 'fur-like' appearance; I also used Crystal Effects on her outfit and hat. Cute he?

The base card is Mellow Moss; all DP is by My Mind's Eye (left over scraps - OH YEAH BABY!!). The two scalloped strips were made using SU! Slit Punch and then doodle with a white gel pen.

Thanks for popping in!! Hugs, ~M.
