Mojo Monday #458

Last Monday of the month and not sure where July has gone! Actually, not sure where the year has gone LOL!  It has been a blitz and a blurr since last December and I am hoping there will be a little down time in August as the Fall is always busy.

Today's sketch took a little thinking time but once I chose my papers I was good to go.  Always in need of some birthday cards so pulled out some old Stella and Rose papers by MME, the Happy Birthday Plain Jane and Happy Place set along with the coordinating Happy Doodles die set.  A few buttons for some texture and embellishments and I was good to go.

All the challenge details are over on the Mojo Monday blog and you can also view all the wonderful Mojo Makers samples.  Should you wish more details on the Mojo Maker's cards, you can also visit their individual blogs noted below.


Our summer weather has returned so looking forward to lots of evening walks with my daughter and some fun in the sun - maybe even a beach day as it is so close and we seldom go there!  Have a fabulous day and I look forward to seeing your creations in the gallery :)

Oh, Marisa, what a great sketch card! I just saw the sketch, and I really love your card with the sweet flowers and great color combination! Love how you've added some sweet buttons! Don't we all have buttons, ribbon, twine, and things that aren't used as much! Hehe! Beautifully done, sweet friend! Hugs! (Way behind in commenting...so slowly making my way "down" the pile - ha!)
