A Little Weekend Mojo: Thanks

Hi all! Happy Friday! Just wanted to share a little card I made that was inspired by this week's Mojo Monday Sketch.

So here's the sketch:

And here's my take on it:


For this 4-Bar note card, I began with a layer of Kraft cardstock that I attached directly to the card base. I then used patterned papers from Close To My Heart's new Memo Fundamentals collection to build the card front. I added a strip of this fun copper-foiled vellum from the new Rustic Home Fundamentals (also by Close To My Heart) along with a wood grained embossed oval of Kraft cardstock to the memo paper using my mini stapler. I then added a scrap from the Memo Fundamentals papers to the oval with regular adhesive. I layered a strip of Sea Glass Glitter paper and a bit of lace from the Rustic Home ribbon pack and stapled it to the card front. I added a button from my 28 Lilac Lane Attic Findings Embellishment Kit with a bit of jute from the Rustic Home ribbon pack to cover the staple. I cut the "thanks" from black card stock using Close To My Heart's new "Thanks" Thin Cut die and added it to the front with liquid mat adhesive. I then glued the front of the card to the Kraft cardstock layer on the card base. I finished everything off with sequins from 28 Lilac Lane's Pastels Sequin Tin and some liquid glass to make the thanks shine.

Here are a couple of close ups



I hope you enjoyed this bit of Mojo! Stay tuned for the Rose Blossom Blog Hop coming up on Monday. We'll be featuring the new Rustic Home and Uptown Fundamentals collections. You won't want to miss it!

Have a wonderfully creative and restful weekend!
