Welcome back to another Mojo Monday sketch. This week's sketch is brought to us by Julee, and there is a fun diagonal panel to work with.Pulled two papers from The Sweetest Thing Recollections pack from Michael's and went to work. I added just a touch of colour to the cream leaves by using third generation stamping with Sahara Sand and added a button to the ribbon banner for a little something.
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.
We had a busy, but very good weekend. On Friday I go to actually meet my cyber friend, Sue Kohler, from Australia! We did a bit of shopping at Michael's and then enjoyed a fabulous lunch together. I am now fully versed in speaking Australian LOL! Saturday was my son's first spring soccer game, and Saturday night was spent celebrating a friend's birthday. Sunday, I taught my Sunday School Class, and Sunday afternoon I took a nap to recover from all the weekend activities -- I'm getting old! Hope your weekend was a good one too.
Thanks for popping by today!
