House Mouse challenge HMFMC 113

Hi there, this fine Saturday morning....again I am at my desk with friend Vikki (skyping across the country from east to west some 3500kms). I had this card half made over the past week and so hope it encourages my mojo today. This Christmas card is one is for the House Mouse challenge HMFMC113  with a theme of 'Make Wishes come True'.  Thanks for taking a peek

House Mouse challenge 111, Less is More challenge Week 51, The Sweet Stop

I have put together this weeks card using three blog challenges...that must be a record for me.

Less is More Challenge - this weeks theme is "Cut it Out" and House Mouse Mondays challenge to create a card in Black and White and The Sweet Stop blog challenge this week is Non Traditional Valentine.  So hard for me to not put some colour on this card so I used glitter to give it some sparkle. The heart cut out I created with my oval scalloped spellbinders and decorative edge scissors and I inked the raised hearts black on white card on my cuttlebug embossing folder. Thanks for taking a peek.

PS...Whoops I didn't really follow the sketch for the Sweet Stop challenge, my mistake, sorry

House Mouse challenge 107

At the last minute..here's my Autumn/Fall card for the House Mouse monthly challenge. I love Autumn and the beautiful colours so much that my mum includes autumn leaves in her letters as we don't get an autumn season living in the tropics.  Thanks for taking a peek.

Hi everyone...well here in Australia we don't really celebrate Halloween in a big way, hence I don't have any stamps, including pumpkins to create my card....so I just put this card together with some of my pre-stamped images ...I love this cute cat he looks pretty 'miffed'  !!!

August Lily Pad Cards challenge

I'm on a roll today....must be because we're having a skype stamp camp - 5 ladies are all being creative at Vikki's place in Townsville and I'm propped up on the ironing board at the end of the table. Vikki suggested we do last months colours from Lily Pad Cards - aqua, hot chocolate and lipstick red - here my house mouse card..stamped in brown I'm not so sure about...what do you think. Thanks for taking a peek.

Mojo 194

I'm back, been away for a short holiday to hug my kids, it was wonderful. I also enjoyed a chat over lunch with my crafty friends; Vikki and Estelle.

Here's my card for the last Mojo Monday, I missed posting it but oh well..... I tried another camera to see if that would improve the photo quality but doesn't look any different to me.....so maybe I'm up for a new camera <wide grin>!!

My friend Vikki and I have been using MojoMonday recipes for some time now to make cards, so at last I decided to share one of mine....hope you like it. 

Have a wonderful week, cheers Robyn
