Mojo Birthday Wishes

Happy Tuesday (late in the day as it may be!) Today's card is my take on the Mojo Monday sketch this week. The paper is my new MME Lime Twist, scrumptuous isn't it? I have been having so much fun making halloween cards but had to stop and get another birthday card. My goal is at the end of October to have at least 6-8 birthday cards on hand. So here is number 5! Another short post- need to try to catch up on some posts and gotta watch Ringer!

Birthday Wish, Mojo Style!

Hello everyone and happy Tuesday................ a good start to a week here but honestly hoping it will still go by quickly. I do love my weekends! So today's card is one that I made for the Mojo sketch challenge this week and also using it for the Cropstop blocking challenge again. This paper is authentique and it is just gorgeous isn't it? I love all the combinations in the pack. The sentiment is from Verve. The ribbon I have been hoarding because I just love the grey/silver and now I am about out! Noooooo!, so guess it iwll be time to reorder. :) Have a great day.

Challenge: this card is also representing the Diva Case of Julie Tilman: she is always amazing me with her creations and all her new found tecniques.

It is not a SQUARE!


Hello! Boy what a wintery/blustery day it was here in Michigan. We didn't get as much snow as we had thought but it was cold and blowing snow everywhere, so much you didn't know how much was coming down or just being moved around! Phew...... and well, no school on Thursday either. So for those getting pelted,........... stay warm and safe!

And on to my card. Now this card was made with several different challenges in mind. I had my list out and thought - Valentine card. Again! Remember, this is my first year to actually mail out Valentine's! So I use my lacey nestabilities to make the card base and then my circle nesties to do the top layer. A couple punches (heart/branch/circle) and some flower. I should have taken a close up of the flowers because I put clear glittery stickles on them and they are sooo pretty! I love them and think that I will start putting it on all my flowers. You gotta try it, quick and easy to do too!

Don't forget: if you have not checked out the OWOH event: click HERE to see my give away!

I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Beautiful You

Hello! I would like to thank you for stopping by today. This particular card is one that I made some time ago for one of the Verve challenges. It is a very simple card but elegant and of course, those can be my most favorite cards. And see that little flower peeking at you? Yep, that is one of my little heartfelt creations/spellbinder flowers. This is definately growing to be one of my most favs!

Bigger Wishes

OH I am so glad you stopped in today, I have a little favor to ask of you all. Now don't be shy either! Apparently my husband was NOT! I mean you know how I always talk about not having enough birthday cards, right? Well I figured I would make some that were a little less girlie and frilly using the Mojo sketch. Maybe ones I could send to a male. Uhem, well I guess I have no idea what I was thinking! I showed it to my husband and he said, "absolutely not..... what is with the dots? And if these were screws it might be a guy card." So- I guess I didn't realize these were not the right colors, that you can not use lines/dots for male cards. What makes a good male card?

Give em some love!

Ah............. hello everyone. So glad that you stopped on over. Today I got to use my brand new pad of DSP. It is double sided and it coordinates which I love- it seems so many companies are making them so they don't match well, which is disappointing. So I got to finally work on the Mojo Monday challenge and this is what I came up with. I went with a Valentine card since I do want to send them out this year. I guess I am getting a little addicted to this theme, so cute and yummy! (no I am not eating them.... ) Have a wonderful day!

Cheerful Day!


Good day! Aren't these cards cheerful and fun? As you can tell this week I have been working on some fun colored cards. I know it is not warm or spring yet..... but I just can't help myself. It is cold and blistery here and this is my ticket to warmth. LOL!



For both of the cards I used the Mojo Monday sketch. This week you got to use a round sketch or a square sketch and I would typically use a square one (they are easier, doncha think?). So I figured I would go ahead and give myself a little challenge and strive to make the circular card. And after finishing the first one I thought it was so darned cute that I had to make another one. I have some clear envelopes that I figured I could slide these into and mail out- and won't that make the postal workers smile?


So there it is for today- some sunshine and and wishes! Have a fabulous day: we are off to spend some family time together before the kids go back to school.

MOJO October

Hello Friends! I hope you had a good Sunday. We celebrated my son's 18th birthday with family. I am stuffed, lots of yummy food! Oh my- and the amount of desserts we had was crazy! I don't think that I should eat for a week but I honestly want to start over it was all so good! LOL.
Anyways- this is my card that I made for his birthday. The DSP is K&Co and the stamps is one that I ordered awhile ago but I can't recall which company (bad me!). He is very much into cars and so I thought I would make this one-now I hope he doesn't get the idea that he is getting one! :) I used the Mojo Monday sketch for this one too!
That is it for me tonight! Have a good one.

Christmas Wishes

Happy Saturday Evening! Glad you are stopping in today. Today's card is using one of my new Stampin Up sets, ready for Christmas? Well I am not really, as it is in the 90's but it is refreshing to make some holiday cards. First I colored the stamp with real red and olive green and stamped it on cream cardstock. The design paper is kraft and I used the new SU embossing folder (love it!).

Pink Patchwork

Isnt this DSP just the sweetest? YOu all might recall that I made a scrapbook for one our friends daughter out of the paper and thought I should use up the rest of the paper. So I decided to participate in the MOJO Monday Challenge this week. The wavy bottom I used my flexible ruler by bobunny.

Sweet Bear

It is Saturday! I am so loving my weekend and hope you are too! Whatcha doing? I went to see Eclipse Friday evening ( it was better than the last 2 I think), then today I had a visit with my mother for a few hours! Then home to work on a few things that I wanted to get done this weekend. Isn't this the sweetest bear? I got this as a gift in a swap that I am in (thank you Kelly!). It is my very first LOTV stamp and I just love him. He reminds me of my son's very first teddy bear. Anyways, it has been a long time since I used my copics so I did use them to color this image. The sketch is the Mojo Monday sketch for this first week of July and as always- Julee has done another beauty! The DSP is Stampin Up as are all the cardstocks. Some of the new yummy colors (pear, tangerine).
As you can see with the 2nd photo, I used some glitter for the flowers- just to give the card a sparkle and make it pop- did the job too! If you have some time, stop over and join us on the Mojo challenge.

Have a Great Day!

Getting My MOJO....

I am trying to get back in the swing of things now that graduation and the party are over. Spent some time Sunday evening exploring all my inspirational sites and challenges and decided to use Julee's Mojo Monday (last week) as my kick start. The paper is October Afternoon, stamps are Happy Days and the flowers are colored with my copics. I have been for some reason looking at my cards again after I post them in a different light and then wanting to change them.............. anyone else do that? I hope you like it.

Success

Happy Tuesday!
Things are looking better here at our house. Hubby is up and moving around, pain is controlled and sleeping fairly well. I also officially got a job and am waiting for the start date, which I am actually hoping will be Monday next. I am ready to go back (I think) as it has been almost 3 months.
Today's card is another graduation card. I am trying to get a bunch of these done so I am not waiting until the last moment. Yeah, why not Heidi- lets just wait till the last moment. LOL! The DSP is from a DCWV Graduation Paper pack from 2008. My sentiments are from Verve and the sketch is for the Monday Mojo.

Have a great day!

Mojo and More

Another fabulous Mojo Monday Sketch from Julee. It was a perfect sketch to utilize some stitching (faux in my case today) and to pull out my June bug BG paper pack. I was in need of a few Birthday cards for the month of May- it seems like 1/2 my family and 1/2 of my friends have May birthdays! So this one is for a friends, can't say who in case her or some of the other gals check here. But I do think that she will find it funny!



So to make it even more fun I decided to decorate the inside and then put a funny note inside. I hope she finds it to be entertaining. She is older than me so I can make fun! LOL!


So have a great day!
Heidi

MOJO Mix

Happy Sunday!
Today's card is from last weeks MOJO Monday sketch that Julee had for us...... it is another winner I think. I just love all her sketches, she just makes it all come together doesn't it? LOOK, look.......... this paper is October Afternoon Thrift Shop. I found these papers about 3 weeks ago and just fell in love with them. They have several lines that are wonderful and vintage feel and well, I am into vintage right now. Are those little flowers just the sweetest little things and look at the little clear flower button, it is from Webster's Pages. I still feel like I need something to add to this card and I am not sure what it is but for now it will stay.
This card also was made for these challenges:
Simon Says: Buttons, Bows and Bling
Have a wonderful day!

Birthday flowers

Happy Thursday- I know it is the end of the day but I apologize- had to run errands today and got a late start on my card making! So I went through my challenges and thought I would like this one, then pulled out my scraps (my own personal challenge) and found a couple that matched to work with. This is the MoJo Monday challenge by the way- is it not the sweetest sketch? The paper is DCWV paper pack. Actually the base is one side of the paper and the smaller piece is the backside of that paper.
I hope you are all having a wonderful day-
Heidi

Lets Get To It!

Well I am back! I feel like I have abandoned you all but thank you all for your wonderful comments over the last week or so! Today's card is one that I made for two challenges: Mojo Monday and then Little Paper Shop (required pink, white and black). The colors that I used here I find are so striking to use together. I mean, typically I would not use black on a Valentine's card but I just love it. The DSP is all Stampin Up as is the cardstock, then I used a couple punches/flowers to add a little zip to it all.

I hope you are getting into the mood to get your Valentine's ordered. I am going to get the new Stampin Up set with treat cups because it is Sale A Bration and I want free goodies!

Take care!
Heidi

From me to you

Hello to you all........... I know, can you believe that I have posted a 2nd one for today!? I had this card that I did for the Mojo Monday challenge and I just love this set. I needed a card to accompany a package and so I used this challenge to make this card for it. Julee always has such beautiful sketches.......... so if you ever need inspiration, check out her sketches that are available to print off.

Anyways, the set is a Verve set and the cardstock is SU and the DSP is K&Co. I then used the Martha Stewart border punch. I am off to prepare for a trip to my mother's in the morning so will keep this short and sweet for you all.

Have a great Sunday, check back tomorrow as I have the cutest little project box I made.
