Color Me Mojo Monday!
July21
Ok friends, trying to get with the program!
Thank you to my friend and fellow consultant Karen Pederson for posting her great Monday ideas!
Using the Mojo Monday sketch and Jeanette Lynton’s Color me Monday inspiration, I came up with this cute card!
Check out Jeanettes blog (our CEO) for great Close To My Heart Inspiration!
This color combo was a big stretch for me, it’s good to think ourside our boxes!
I used Fancy Cut Botanicles, some assorted background and texture papers from our beautiful Aspen and Bella paper kits, ribbon rounds and a few distressing tools and inks! Oh and I DID stamp…the little flourish in the background is just waht was needed to finish off the look!
Visit my Close To My Heart site to order our High Quality products to recreate this fun card idea!
FYI: This card is 6 x 6 and the background pieces are 6 x 1 1/2
TIP: Thanks to Sue Laufer for this great tip!
Tie a ribbon around your glue dots and spin as needed! Oh and don’t forget to label all your scrappy stuff in case you are cropping with others!

My cute and talented downline, Tammy D. just made this cute card for me from this post! What a cute idea! Tammy made little prints of these photos, mounted them on tagboard and distressed the edges and used them for the center of the flowers! Yes, there is also sewing on it. The inside is super cute too! What a nice surprise to receive in the mail! I love random acts of kindness and Tammy, you are TOO kind! Thank you!
See our beautiful papers here on my Close to My Heart website!

I have been out of site lately! I have been in the midst of a downsizing move. Love the ocean breezes here. A proud owner of a new laptop up and running but the old computer just now hooked up with all my info stored and no flash drive in site, I’ve just been MIA. But I have found time to cuddle my new grandbaby. Just gotta share…
