Busy, But Still Crafting...

Wow!  This has been a busy week thus far.  But I did find time to spend in my craft room anyway.  This card design was inspired by Mojo Monday's sketch this week.  I started with cream cardstock and layered on a panel of brown, added a square of pretty patterned paper edged on the left with a strip of cream which I cut with some edging scissors and stamped lightly with SU Always Artichoke  using a foliage rubber stamp from my stash.  I then cut a cream circle with my silhouette and inked the edge with avocado.  On this I glued a 'trista tree' from my silhouette library just because I love to use my silhouette and I love to do something a little different sometimes.  I cut out the tag from brown and green cardstock and layered them, then I stamped the background with the same stamp I used on the cream edge.  I stamped 'Miss You' over this in pitch black Adirondack pigment ink.    I punched out some tiny little flowers from the same patterned paper and gave them green pearl centers then glued them to the tag.  The circle with the tree and the tag are put on with dimensional foam adhesives.  And there you have it.

Here is the sketch.

 
Here is the card I came up with.

I want to enter this card into Mojo Monday's Sketch challenge #235 and The ABC Design Team's Anything goes challenge.

New Venture...Round Card

Mojo Monday's challenge this week is a sketch that offers a choice between a square or a round card.  I have never made a round card before, so decided to give it a try.  I cut out the scalloped circles with my Silhouette Cameo.  I added some fabric flowers embellished with adhesive pearls.  The sentiment says 'celebrate' and has a sweet little black bow and some grey pearls.  I distressed the edges with ink to set them off a bit.  I woull like to enter this card into the Mojo Monday sketch challenge,  the Simon Says 'anything goes' challenge and the Made Especially for You 'distressed ink' challenge.


Here is the sketch they offered.  






And here is my take on it.
