The Perfect Blend

Happy Sunday! Today's the last day of our Mojo Turns 100 celebration and today's sketch was designed by Mary Fish. Be sure to check out the mojo blog for the sketch, because I kind of strayed a little.


I don't know if it was just wanting to take a little creative liberty after a week of following sketches or just laziness because I couldn't find my square punches that made me decide to substitute circles. I do love the modern look they give, though. Sorry about the glare on the photo - the embossing and wet stickles gave me fits when I was photographing, but I'm not motivated enough to go take more pics! LOL

I punched out all the circles from Cameo Coral and Chocolate Chip, then lined them up on my Cuttlebug D'Vine Swirls folder and embossed them. I also dry embossed the main cream layer, then heat embossed the Coffee & Friends stamp from Delightful & Delicious with Chocolate Chip Craft ink and clear embossing powder. A few rectangle Nestabilities mats, some brown & cream polka dot ribbon and some diamond Stickles accents on the swirls and cup and the card was done. Easy peasey!

Love how you used circles instead of squares for this sketch :D Lovely colours and card as always.

I did a big oops and was wondering if you can help me out!!! I accidentally hit unsubscribe from ALL subscriptions on a Feeblitz (it was late and I was tired -- bad combination!). It wiped out ALL my e-mail subscriptions to blogs I am subscribed too. I have tried and tried to resubscribe on the Feedblitz link they send when (like for 2+ hours) and it won't let me. I entered my password they sent me and everything. I sent an e-mail to support on Friday with a list of all the blogs I want to resubscribe to and nothing has come of it yet (maybe a bit quick to expect something in two days?) Short of getting a new e-mail address to subscribe to do you have any ideas or can you? Can you resubscribe me from your end? Suggest away or if you can point me to the right area in Feedblitz that would be great as they keep rejecting the password they sent me!! I miss my daily blog fix!
