Mojo Monday 275

The design team over at Mojo Monday gave us yet another great sketch to work with this week.  Check out the sketch to the left, I can see so many possibilities.  I needed to whip up a quick birthday card for a friend who will be celebrating her birthday later this week and used this sketch as the basis for that card.

I also had some scraps of paper from the Summer Smooches DSP #125409 laying out on my workspace and this sketch is also a great way to use up  those strips of paper we all seem to accumulate.  So, without any further ado,  here’s my card!  MojoMonday 275

I love the Blue & Yellow color combination, especially Daffodil Delight and Island Indigo.  So crisp and cheerful!  The Mixed Blossom stamp set and the coordinating Blossom punch make stamping & cutting out the flower a snap.  The flower center is accented with a Glimmer Brad from our Brights Collection.

The sentiment is stamped with our Itty Bitty Banners stamp set and a quick trip through the Big Shot with the coordinating Bitty Banners Framelits , and presto!  A perfectly coordinated banner.

Thanks for stopping by My Stampin’ Space.  Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of my entry.  Then, go make a project yourself using this sketch and show me what you’ve done.

Happy Stampin!

PPA150 Color Challenge

The first color challenge of the new year was just what I needed to get me back in the saddle again!  I realized that I haven’t stamped, or posted anything on my blog for over 6 weeks until just the other day.  I NEEDED to get back to stamping to get my sanity back.  Stamping is therapy!    I love the color combination that our pals came up with.

So here is my entry:  I hope you like it.

I used Melon Mambo embossing powder to emboss the flower image and sentiment.

I thought the flower needed a little bling so I added a center from Silver Glimmer paper topped with a jumbo pearl which I colored black.
