A Little Stash Bustin' Mojo


Hi Folks! Thought I'd play along with the crew over at Mojo Monday again this week. I actually had this card made on Monday (imagine that), but then the snow came. Again. And, well, when we have snow days around here nothing really gets done, including (but not limited to) blogging. Now that the kids are back in school, it's time to get back to work.

For this sketch, I decided to bust out the stash and see what I could make. Here's the result:


Can you tell I'm kinda done with winter? The flowered paper, chipboard elements, and "thank you" sticker are from the From Me To You line by Pebbles. The Polaroid-style frame is by Heidi Swapp. The text and ledger background papers are also from Pebbles, but are from their Front Porch 6x6 paper pad. "hello sunshine" is from a retired Close To My Heart stamp set. I used Worn Lipstick and Tea Dye Distress inks for the sentiment and the edges of the paper, and added some Stickles to the flower chip for a little bling.

Here are a couple of close-ups:



And here's another look:


For all of you who are still gazing out at snow-covered streets and lawns, I hope this brightens your day just a bit! Stay warm and don't forget: spring will be here March 21 whether the weather cooperates or not!
