Mojo Monday # 396

good morning to all, I had a lot of fun making this card, I normally don't have so much white for the back ground so I had to ink it up a bit to give it a shadow effect and I think it worked well.
Enjoy your day!!

Mojo Monday # 393

Hello, another Monday sketch from MJM.  My first thought was to add a robot or Mini Monster to this til I found this Star in county fair.

another birthday card

good morning, for a April birthday... I used a 2 sided paper for this, color is better in real life, but you get the idea.

Exploding Handbag

Hello to all,  today I found this cute "exploding handbag" on
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/explodinghandbag/
I watched the video and figured it looked easy enough, so I gave it a try, after all it is only paper.
I  love the way it turned out and it really did not take long to create. it took me longer to find my velcro

Mojo Monday # 387

good morning to all, Another month has come and gone, we are now into March that means contest time over at MJM.  I went with a baby girl card with this sketch. 

Mojo Monday # 383

good morning to all, It is already Feb. and I am still working on "all" of my cricut cartridges, I needed a break so I looked up  this weeks MJM sketch, With all the birthdays coming in June I thought I would start on them. 
I made the sketch a landscape and I like the way it turned out.

I started to make the second one like the sketch, but I liked the base paper  and did not want to cover it up, I also thought it looked like the sketch because of the look. that card is going to my s-i-l for his bd.

Kyle's turning 11

good morning to all,  what a crazy snowy day it is today,
This was a fun card to make for my grandson,  it is a large 8 x 5 1/2 inch card made from Mini monsters, I also added the batman buckle made from George and paper doll dress up. He is still in the batman stage and I am thinking he will love this. It was quick and easy to make.

BBTB2 anything goes

hello to all,  I saw this card on pinterest and had to try it with my cricut, ( Kris McIntosh from stampingwithkris) used a template. I used wedding solutions, George, and my design studio. I was happy the way it turned out,   I need to make more shaped cards. My girlfriend will love to get this on her birthday. I also added a gem that was in my stash.

more cards

for my hubby,,, married 39 years

I have to tell you, if it where not for my calendar with all the reminders on it, I would have forgotten my own anniversary. It has been one of those summers that went way to fast and not knowing what was done. With my mother-in-law in the nursing home I have stayed close to home and did a lot of little extras and running for my f-i-l.  this is also Mojo Mondays tall and skinny card #360

                                                I had blue daisies in my bouquet

taken to young

today is a sad day, My cousins daughter at the age of 24 was in a car accident and died as a result of her injuries.    it took me awhile to make these cards because I had 2 to make one for my cousin and her family and one for my godparents who are Nicole's grandparents.

                       I had 2 butterflies from the first card and added them to the inside of the 2nd

                                               one of God's angels, Nicole, went home...8-9-14

card for Jason

Hello to all, it has been sometime since I have made a card, but it has been crazy around here. My mother in law has been in the hospital with fungal meningitis and has not been doing well. I had all of my June cards done before she got this nasty disease, she had won that battle then had 3 strokes. Is now in a nursing home (not liking it one bit).
I needed a break so I made this for my son-in-law, next I have one to make for my grandson.
Jason's title is, deputy forest supervisor of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest.
I thought this card would be just right for him,  we are very proud of Jason!!!!
