Mojo Monday #297

Welcome to another wonderful Mojo Monday sketch by Julee.

I dug into a new paper pad I got at Michael's last week and just had to use this fun, polka dotted paper. Just made me happy looking at it :)   Added a few goodies from my scrap pile and this card was all but done.

Since the colours were upbeat, I decided to use Verve's Praying for You Plain Jane as the sentiment.

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.



Busy weekend with soccer, studying with kids for their final exams and final project work, and the like.  Always such a busy time of year with the end of the school year on the horizon.  My little splurge was being part of  an LSS Garage Sale.  Such a great way to pass along some unloved stamping goodies to those who will enjoy them more than I curently do.  Bonus: some spending money to put a dint into some of my wish lists :)

Oh, and before I forget, Julee has just added two new ribbon collections over at the Verve Store and all the ribbon collections are 10% off until July 4th.

Sweet praying for you card - I would feel so special if you sent me this card so it is perfect. Great colors, sentiment (I think I am going to get that one and that one on your nautical card) and details. Hugz!

You always do such a good job on the Verve sketches, Marisa. I think I've lost my touch on those. ;)
