mojo monday # 181 contest

My,,,,where is the time going? contest time at Mojo Monday this week, I made this early in the week but just getting to post this.....lots going on with this card!

                                       made a 2nd card because of the cut in this card

set for M-I-L

Hi all,  I liked the cards I did the other day, that I decided to make a set to give my m-i-l for her birthday..
she likes antiques so I tried to keep the old look to these cards. I hope to get a dozen of them made...
what I have so far..
I  have more ready  on my design studio, just need to find the time...

totally lifted and made smaller

Hi all, these look like you have seen them before?  these where scrap lifted from Everyday Cricut guest designer
Monique Griffith Designs,  except I made mine a little smaller so they could fit into a 4 3/4 x 6 1/2" envelope
( the new invitation size at Wal-Mart)
my finished card size is 4 1/2 x 6 1/4
black mat... 4 1/4 x 6"
next is  3 3/4 x 5 1/2
and the bottom is 3 3/4 x2
for the inside only sentiment is 3 x 4 3/4"
the sewing machine and layers cut @ 3  " from the heart cut @ 1 1/2
stove and layers cut @ 3 1/4"  warm wishes cut @ 1 1/4"

                                                        the inside

 

these cards I wanted to see if they would look good in a smaller size, mostly because I don't have

an envelope to fit a 5 x 7" card.. next time I will try a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card 

I have a great cutter so I can make cards to the size I want with the scor-pal for easy folding.

paper cutz challenge # 80 think spring - Marcia's bd card

 For challenge #80, make a card, LO or craft project for Spring using any colors you'd like.

for this card I started with the paper and worked from there. I love pretty paper and let it do most of the work for this card.

mojo monday # 180

Hi all, this card I wanted to be a sympathy card but I believe it will end up a First Holly Communion card.

I normally do not like ribbon, but for this card it seems to work!
