Mojo Monday #279

Mojo279 - Marisa

It's the first Monday of the month which means it is contest time over on the Mojo Monday blog!

Julee has provided this wonderful sketch for us to work with this week and I had great fun using it to make one more Valentine's Day card.  I just had to use this wonderful Carta Bella Kiss Me heart paper I found at my LSS last week.

Perhaps one of the last times in a while I'll be using my beloved Jotted Heart and U die too - can never get enough of them!

You can check out all the challenge details over on the  Mojo Monday blog and also get a chance to view all the wonderful Mojo Makers samples!  Should you wish more details on their cards, you can also visit their individual blogs noted below.

LOVE this, Marisa! I can't find my U! ACK! Wondering if I'd loaned it out or misplaced with the move upstairs. You have me determined to FIND it! LOL!
