We're back from camping in the hottest campground in B.C...both in reservations as well as temperature...it's so wonderful to be in A/C again and a soft bed :) Now I'm back and have my favourite challenges in front of me. I thought I'd start with Mojo Monday. It's only been posted for a day and already there is over 170 entries!!! It's always this way, but this week is contest week. Julee and the Verve divas will pick 7 winners and each winner will win a stamp set worth $24. I won one in June!! It was such an honour. I am still on my Kindred Spirits kick and stamping on kraft. I just got a Stampin' Up order and wanted to try out the new colours and my new embossing folder. The great thing about the SU folders (they look like cuttlebug EFs) is that they are a little bigger than the cuttlebug ones so they cover a whole cardbase. As it's contest week, I went all out with the bling...a whole row of silver pearls!! I also used the smallest fleur de lis image in the set, traced a circle with a nestability and made my own circle border rather than using the set's oval image. I really love this :)
I also got to use my Labels 3 die...I love the way it fits perfectly with the circle dies. I have my eye on the new labels now!! Here are some close ups...I'm still experimenting with the camera settings. I have found that my "light tent" is best on my computer chair with fabric draped over 2 large pieces of cardboard :) Have a fabulous day!!

Love the silver and white pearls...nice job on the sketch!
Wow, gorgeous! I love the Razzleberry paper with the white ribbon, and the pearls are FAB!!!!
I love the Razzleberry too. I only wish they had made more embellishments in that colour. Nice to see you letting go of lots of pretty pearls to make such a beautiful card.
Wow, beautiful card! I love the colors and fabulous job on the hand stamped border! The pearls are perfect. Your last picture is great, nice shot of the dimension!!!
Very pretty! I LOVE the colors and what a great bow! I have been using a sheet for the background on my pictures, it seems to be working pretty good! You gotta do, what you gotta do! :)
