Sending Birthday Cheer

 Happy Monday, everyone!  I've got the day off so spent a few hours in the studio :)  I created this card inspired by Laurie's beautiful card for PTI's Create Along with Us.  I looked through my dies to find one that would work and then found the perfect sentiment in the set Don't Forget to Write.  Thanks for stopping by!

Joy to the World ~ Mojo is Back!

 Hello from the studio!  It's been a great morning here in the studio.  With the time change, I was up early and die cutting some sparkly snowflakes to add to this card.  I was over the moon excited when I saw that Julee had started up the Mojo Monday challenge again.  I HAD to participate, especially in the first one back.  I am sneaking it in just before the deadline :)  Thanks for visiting :)

Merry Christmas

Greetings, friends!  If it seems like it's full blown Christmas here on the blog, you are correct!  For some reason I've been inspired to start Christmas early here...maybe it's those gorgeous Painted Poinsettias or that fabulous font from Penned Elegance: Christmas, I just don't know!  This card was created for Dawn's Make it Monday challenge.  We were asked to make a painted brushstroke background.  I used my Dina Wakely acrylic paints in various blues and silver.  Thanks for stopping by!

Hello ~ The Card Concept

Hello everyone! It's time for a new challenge over at The Card Concept challenge blog.   Our challenge is based on this gorgeous photo...

I was inspired by the colours and fall leaves when I created my clean and layered card.  These two sweet leaves were left over from a past project and I thought they'd be perfect to crown my sweet little chalkboard :)  I hope you'll head over to The Card Concept blog to see all the different interpretations from the Design Team then join in the fun!  Have a great day!

Joy

Hello friends, I'm back with my take on PTI's Make it Monday challenge.  We could either make a banner or use a banner on our card.  I chose to make a card.  I used a jumbo fishtail die to create my banner and then decorated it with Snowfall Style snowflakes and one of my favourite words, "joy."  Thanks for visiting :)
