pinky

The Mojo Monday sketch was really challenging and I think I spent too much time thinking about it, my card seem so busy… this is also for My Time to Craft ‘here come the girls’.  The stamp is Stampin’ up chalked…then used two edge punches for funny edges. The girl is framed with a spellbinder nestie.

Frank’s birthday

Its Mojo Monday time and I really needed a sketch for Franks birthday card, and I wanted post a crd for Penny Black Saturday– touchy feelie- the raised embossing, the ribbed  ribbon, &  the layers,  and Top tip Tuesday– straight edges, although I cut frames with a spellbinder die the squares have all straight edghes!   3 challenges for early Monday morning, sometimes it good to get up early.

Mondays can be fun.

distress

Marks finest papers Speedy the cat challenge is Distress, which seems to mean ‘old’ antique looking and there are distress inks and techniques so I hope  this fits.  The distressed image is from Marks finest papers ‘Thankful for you’ set , I used Tim Holtz distress ink. then sponged the teal and goldenrod inks around the background so i could enter the Playdate Cafe color challenge (see below). The sentiment is from hero arts.
