mojo monday # 179

Mojo Monday is here again, I thought with the snowstorm going on outside I would make a Christmas card this week..
pop dotted and smooched flower, also outlined with gold marker 3 black gems

Pooh and Friends

over at Shelly's blog she had made a silhouettes card with Tigger on it...I liked it, so I thought I would give Eeyore a try, then Pooh and Piglet then I figured I better make Tigger also,  I believe this would be the first
themed set of cards I have made...Thanks Shelly...
the tiny little pearls took the longest to add, inking , and the bows (not my specialty)



Matt's BD card

Hi all, I do not remember where I saw this sketch, but I thought it would be a great background for a  mans card

Courtney's 12th BD card from Britt

this card looks like the invitation that was sent to Britt...

Jeremiah's 33rd bd card

remember the song...Jeremiah was a bullfrog??   while my s-i-l was training to be a  fireman they sang this song once in awhile and thought I would go with it, bring a few memories back for him...

opps...

Hi all, this card started out to be for my s-i-l, and it was looking fine until I added the pearls, then it really took on a more feminine look to it so it will be going into the stash pile...

crafty creations challenge #104

My love is like a red, red rose.....poem for inspiration.

For all those romantics out there I (Claire)
decided to go for some Scottish love poetry as the
inspiration this week for our
Crafty Creations Challenge.

A Red, Red Rose

Oh my luve is like a red, red rose,
That's newly sprung in June:
Oh my luve is like the melodie,
That's sweetly play'd in tune.

As fair art thou, my bonie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a' the seas gang dry.

Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi' the sun;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
While the sands o' life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only luve!
And fare thee weel a while!
And I will come again, my luve,
Tho' it were ten thousand mile!

Robert Burns
 
I still had this rose on my DS and decided to to make it in red for this challenge, I turned it so it looked like it was falling to the ground.not sure on the sentiment yet, so I am leaving it blank... I just love the rose from Indie Art.

mojo monday # 176-square

Hi all, Monday night while I was making my round mojo card, I was getting bombed by flies, 5 all together
go figure with the cold and the snow that was falling that day, I live in an old farm house and never know when those little buggers will come to life.  anyway it reminded me of when I had a picnic a few years back and we had all of these flies show up  .... that is how this card came about...

prayers to all who where hit by this last blizzard, Carol<><
