Get Well / MOJO Monday#408



Today is a card made using the MOJO#408 sketch.  I recently was going through all my cards and reorganizing and filing them into appropriate categories.  I saw that I had only one actual get well card. So my mission today was to use this sketch to fill that void.

I just recently received my August July Paper Pumpkin, and it included a Get Well stamp. PERFECT!

Actually, all the images on the card are from the July kit. The finished card size is, 3 1/2" x 6" so this card called for a specialty envie using the SU Envelope Punch Board. This board makes doing that so easy.  My card size was listed, so all I had to do is cut the paper and follow the simple instructions listed on the board.  I added the tea cup and flower on the front of the envelope and just the outline of the flower on the back flap.



Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy the rest of your day and go do something CRAFTY!

Hugs,

Me?Miss You? / Mojo Monday


I have a very quick post tonight. This card is based on a sketch by MOJO Monday

The stars on this card were used as part of the design with a special meaning. My 4 year old grandson, Kempton,  seems to be  into stars right now. I'm  really not sure why.

Since he lives in NC and I live in CA, keeping in touch with him is important. The sentiment from the SU "Happy Happenings" was perfect to let him know how much I missed him.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and are able to do something CRAFTY!

Hugs,
BernieBee

Sharing in Your Sorrow / CTC / ctd#349

Yesterday I played along with CASEing-the-Catty and the Color Throwdown challenge.  This weeks challenge over at CTC was to make a project using one of the Love and Sympathy examples on pages 19-30 of the new catalog. I decided to CASE the card on page 25 and combine it with the colors from ctd#349.





I put my own spin on this card using the products that I had. I did use SU paper and inks to play along with ctd colors, SU Thoughts and Prayers and the hostess set Bloom with Hope (ret.) The Deco Labels Framelits was the focal point. For the bird, I used the Bird Builder Punch and the retired Polka Dot Pieces stamp set. Adding Basic Pearls, Linen Thread and a small button completed the card.

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy you Holiday weekend, stay safe and I hope you can do something CRAFTY!

Hugs,
Bernie Bee

A Great Pear / MOJO404






Just playing along today with the MOJO Monday sketch #404.  I used the A2 card rather then the Tall/Skinny card as the challenge suggested. I seem to struggle with that size and I'm not sure why.
This another of my recent cards using TE Fruity Friends stamp set. I just love the little happy faces on the fruit and the cute little sentiments that go along with it. All the papers and both EF's are Stampin' Up! I used Memento Black Ink to stamp the image and the pears were colored with Stampin'  Write makers using the Aqua painters on watercolor paper.

I pray you have a blessed and Happy Fourth of July and still get to do something CRAFTY!

Hugs,
Berrnie Bee
