In the Palms: MOJO124 Sketch

Welcome!

I LOVE to create greeting cards. This is a place

for me to share some of my favorite cards with family,

fellow card-makers,and friends.

Update: Since I began this card-making blog in 2009, we have moved to a warm, sunny place, retired, and gotten very busy. Even though my love of making cards has not lessened, my time "for" card-making has diminished. I had actually considered taking down my blog because of my lack of time to make and post cards. Instead I will try to post more regularly with a variety of things. Please bear with me while I attempt to expand my topics.

MOJO124 Sketch

This is my very first MOJO Monday card! MOJO Sketches come out every Monday ... I get them in my inbox. I usually print out the sketch or put it in my online file if I'm somewhere I can't get it printed. Along with the sketch are examples of how you might interpret the sketch done by the MOJO team. They are always amazing! Last night I sat down with the sketch and made some notes. Today I panicked when I figured out that I had no Real Red and no Black cardstock! I love using red, black, and white for Valentines. How could I have forgotten to pack these colors? Just the way I forgot so many other supplies! Yikes! On to Plan B: I decided on a white, Rose Red, Chocolate Chip, and Pretty in Pink color scheme. I used 3 different Cuttlebug embossing folders, my new SU! border punch, white SU! ribbon, Rose Red and Pretty in Pink SU! markers, the Signo white gel pen, the I {HEART} Hearts stamp set, a JustRite stamp, and Marvy Uchida punches to make the circle embellishment. Thank you for looking!
