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!

I made this darling purse yesterday at Cindy Bakers home.  It was a relaxing girls day complete with yummy food and a cute project!

Made with our Close To My Heart Sasparilla Papers, our awesome pewter brads, and square tags.

The pattern was created by Becky Roberts…Instructions can be purchased  here

We just found out my Danielle is having a baby girl!  I’m so excited about being a grandma!  Well, I think my new name is going to be Mimi…cute!
