Has anyone seen.....

...my MOJO? It's gone AWOL! I have done a bit of creating but they are all cased projects. There's not really much I can call my own. I've taken a weeks leave to be off with my girls this week and have done these few bits and my MOJO is gradually coming back.I've been a bit stressed(for a change)and am working full time so haven't got as much time to craft even if the ideas were flowing. Even the delivery of new stamp sets hasn't managed to get me going. I have stroked them lots and ooo'd and ahh'd over them though. I have eventually used them on these cards and am happy with the end results.


To help I've used some inspirational sketches. This one is Mojo Monday sketch 58.

Supplies: All SU (unless otherwise stated)


Stamps: Crazy For cupcakes, Circle of Freindship


Cardstock and Papers: Whisper White base, Pink Passion,. Summer Fun, Only Orange, Regal Rose


Ink: Basic Gray


Accessories: Scallop Edge Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch, 1 1/4" Circle Punch Non SU Ribbons, Stickles


The next one using the same supplies and Stamp set uses a sketch from Cats Pyjamas Designer Team Member Leigh. I have embossed the whole image with crystal clear embossing powder so it's super sparkly. I've coloured the images using my Watercolour pencils.


This one is a complete case of a card by Beate for Ed's Mum's birthday on Friday. (snigger at Mother in Law's birthday on Halloween!!)

Supplies: All SU! unless otherwise stated


Stamps:Pocket Shilloettes, Cheers and Wishes, Season of Joy


Cardstock:Old Olive, choc Chip, Bordering Blue, Whipser White


Ink:Basic Gray, Bordering Blue


Accessories:Choc Chip Double Stitched Ribbon,Rhinestone Brads, White Signo Pen, Nestabilities oval die, Woodware large Scallop Circle punch, Flower Punch, Ticket punch, Coluzzle, Non SU! Watercolour pencils,


I've got a few more bits to show you that I'll upload tomorrow using some of the new sets and papers from the new catalogue. I feel a bit more inspired now I've shown you those!


Bye for Now

P.S. Look at these gorgeous little bundles of gorgeousness. They're my sisters new additions to the family. A pair of Jugs! Cross between a Pug and a Jack Russell. Coco and Alfie. Spencer tolerates them but is not that keen because they keep biting his nose! Bless him.
