A Little Merry Midweek Mojo

Hi All! Welcome to a little midweek mojo! It's been awhile since we played along with the folks over at Mojo Monday, but I just couldn't pass up this week's sketch.


Here's my take on it:


I created this card using a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inch base created from Kraft Cardstock. For the card front, I layered a 3 3/4 x 5 inch piece of Cranberry cardstock with scraps of patterned paper from the My Crush and Picture My Life Happy, Happy Christmas collections by Close To My Heart. I stamped "Wishing You" on a scrap of a Picture My Life card in New England Ivy Ink, and "Peace" and the ampersand on a Picture My Life card that I cut down to 2 3/4 x 4 inches. "Peace" is stamped in Cranberry Ink and the ampersand is in New England Ivy. For these sentiments, I used the XXX stamp set by Concord & 9th. The gold foiled star is from Close To My Heart's Oh Deer! Complements. I then tied red seam binding ribbon (from my stash) around the card front and added the star and "Wishing You" to it with thin foam tape. I then added the whole thing to the card base using my ATG adhesive.

Here's a collage of close-ups:


And here's the card again:


Hope you enjoyed a this little midweek mojo!

Have a wonderfully creative day!
