Mojo 262

Morning all! How are we doing today? I’m fine, made it through a dreary Monday here on Long Island. It’s supposed to be dreary until Thursday, the cold weather came all of a sudden and I’m not a fan! It is supposed to warm up next week so that a good thing!

Today’s post is for this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge. This week the talented Teresa Kline has provided us with this sketch…

I do love some flags! The base of my card is Summer Starfruit Card Stock. I used a piece of Be of Good Cheer Designer Series Paper for the background. The strip across the top is Cherry Cobbler that I embossed with the Retired Snow Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The flags are Gumball Green and are adhered along the bottom of the embossed strip with SNAIL. A piece of Summer Starfruit is cut out with the Delicate Doilies Large Sizzlits Dies and adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The image is from the Winter Wonderland Stamp Set and is heat embossed using Versa-Mark and Basic Black Stampin’ Emboss Powder. I colored the image in with Summer Starfruit, Gumball Green, Blush Blossom and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Write Markers. The greeting is from the Petite Pairs Stamp Set and is stamped in Cherry Cobbler. I punched the piece out with the 2 1/2″ Circle Punch and adhered it to the doily with SNAIL. The flag on the main part is Gumball Green and is stamped with an image from the Chock Full of Cheer Stamp Set also in Gumball Green. A Brushed Bronze Designer Button is adhered to the card with some Mini Glue Dots and I stamped the start from the Merry Mini Stamp Set in Summer Starfruit on Summer Starfruit and punched it out with the Merry Minis Punch Pack. It too is adhered with a Mini Glue Dot. When I color an image in I like to heat emboss it, it makes it easier to stay in the lines! I hope that you enjoyed this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge card. Thank you very much for checking in with me today. Have a super fun day!
