Thank You - MOJO212

Here is a thank you card that I made for a very good friend of mine.  It's been a while since I played along with  Mojo Monday challenges, so I decided to use this week's sketch for my card.  

DP is from MME Mischievous Collection, thank you definition stamp is from Hero Arts and Sugar Picks pin is from Jillibean Soup. 

Here is the sketch from Mojo Monday:

I will also enter this card for this week's Wee Memories Challenge:

Bridal Shower Card

WOW, life has it's way of taking you in all different directions!  I have been so busy that I haven't had a chance to post or visit many blogs.  I am hoping to find some time to "browse" a little this week!  :) 

Here is a card that I made for my cousin's bridal shower.  Sentiment is a rubon that I was determined to use...not a good idea when I barely had time to make her card, but I didn't want to use a traditional sentiment for this occasion.  I was happy with the end result! :)

Pocket on the inside of the card is from PTI, Library Pocket die.  I used this die often as it holds a gift card or cash perfectly. 

Time to Celebrate!

Here is a card that I made for my brother who just celebrated his birthday!  I bought this stamp a few months ago and of course, I forgot about it until I saw Rae from Simply Rae use it on a card.

Stamp is a Studio112 $1 stamp from Michaels, pattern paper with the clocks is from a very (very) old stash and DP is from BasicGrey's wander paper pad.

Happy Birthday Lauren!

This is a super quick and easy card that I made for my beautiful niece and God Daughter, Lauren!  Happy 10th Birthday Lauren!  

I used the gift card die from My Creative Time and attached it to a card base.  The card base also gives me a place to write a special message to the birthday girl!  

DP is from DCWV Citrus Stack, glitter paper is from the matching cardstock stack and sentiments are from My Creative Time, Gift Card Sentiment!

JGNC12 Anniversary Card

Here is an anniversary card that I made for my parents using the traditional resist technique with glossy paper.   This was one of the techniques I learned from Inspiration Showcase.  I couldn't decide which color I wanted to use, so I embossed two of the same pattern and inked one in green (shabby shutters distress ink) and the other in blue (tumbled glass distress ink).  I ended up using the green one on this card so now I have an extra to play with!  :)  

I wanted to keep this card CAS, so here is what I ended up with. 

Sentiment is stamped and clear embossed on vellum.  Cardstock is from PTI (Spring Moss) which ended up being a perfect match for my resist image.  (Unfortunately, this photo does not do justice to actual card!)

I thought this card would work perfectly for the current challenge on Jay Gee's Nook.  

September SFYTT - Happy Birthday Priya!

Here is a birthday card that I made for my beautiful niece, Priya!  She absolutely loves to read, in fact whenever you can't find her it's almost a guarantee that she is tucked away in a corner reading a book!  Happy Birthday Priya!

I started out with this month's sketch from i{heart}2stamp and ended up with this as my final layout.

DP is from MME Lost and Found 2, Rosy collection, sentiment is from My Creative Time, Gift Card Sentiment and die cut from PTI, All Booked Up.

Here is a picture of the September sketch:

JGNC11 Appreciation Card

Here is the card that I made for Jay Gee's Nook challenge #11.  When I first saw the photo inspiration, I immediately thought of one of my favorite stamps from Hero Arts...Starburst Lace!  

Image is stamped and embossed with clear embossing powder, sentiment is from Hero Arts, Truly Appreciated stamp set.  

Here is the photo inspiration:
