Mojo 209

Well I am very happy to say my friend Vikki is back from her trip and I was able to skype with her today while we each put together our Mojo cards.
To start I wasn't sure about this outline but I am very happy with my card I even stamped my own background paper and used my impressionabilities, thank you Mojo ladies for your inspiration. Thanks for taking a peek...enjoy your week.

Less is More challenge: week 38 - one layer with a heart

For a quick and simple one layer card I put together this card. I have this string of hearts border stamp from a Hero Arts set that I have used once so I thought I'd combine it with the simple 'with love' words that just fitted in nicely with the line, embossed them and added some bling. Thanks for taking a peek.

Our Creative Corner - fall colour challenge

Morning fellow stampers here's my card for this weeks OCC challenge - I tried my version of resist embossing but instead of picking up the white embossing powder I sprinkled on pearl white and to start with I wasn't too pleased with the first efforts but kept sponging on colour and "whellarh" I've come up with this autumn card.

Thanks for taking a peek.

Our Creative Corner - inspiration from another country card 2

So here's another card - felt a bit silly not having read the outline properly so quickly thought what else I could do. We have lived in Papua New Guinea on two occasions and their flag is very bright and colourful and brings back some fantastic memories. Thanks for taking a peek.

Our Creative Corner - inspiration from another country

Well I couldn't help myself today, Australia is my home, but I decided to post this card; even though I misread the challenge outline, for a number of reasons.

Firstly I discovered this die cut map of Australia just a few weeks ago while scrounging in a drawer - it's been there many years...then I didn't know what to do with it so decided to go with our flag colours and its design. Secondly, we live on one side (west) of this vast country and our dearly missed kids live way on the opposite side (east) - some 3000 kms. And the rest of our families are spread from the south, along the east coast and up to the very top - hence we don't see each other often. Hi family!!

Thirdly, today is the day my special friend Vikki and her family return from their wonderful 3 week holiday in Europe. Have missed you Vikki and our Saturday Skyping sessions...enjoy your week off and hope to catch up next weekend.
