Mojo Greetings

Hi friends!  Did you have a wonderful weekend?  I've been trying to recover from last week's craziness of trying to get the Verve release ready a midst both boys, Mark and myself being terribly sick.  Not a week I'd like to repeat, and there's really no rest for the weary with the most rambunctious twins on the planet in our family. {no joking there - they are relentless!}  But the October Verve release is here and it's a super fabulous one, if you ask me! {wink}  You should totally go check it out... after you check out my Mojo Monday card, that is!


It's the final Monday of the month and that means it's round or square week.  I went with the square option and made this card over the course of 2 failed naptimes for the boys.  I pulled out the new Unto Us set and embossed the reindeer image in early espresso and the snowflake image in white, then also used as a tone on tone background for the Old Olive strip.  I then cut the reindeer image with the coordinating Reindeer Fun Die Set and also stamped the chevron label in old olive and cut that with the Classy Label Die.  The season's greetings sentiment is from the new Holiday Treats set and embossed in white onto Deck the Halls DSP.  The seam binding is from the Signature Ribbon Collection and I tied it around a 4.5" square that I embossed just the bottom half of with snowflakes.  I finished off with some rusted jingle bells dusted with a bit of champagne glass glitter.

Okay, I'll leave you with a bit of news about the Verve sales going on right now!

Now through November 26, you can purchase the Verve October Release Collection (includes the three new release stamp sets AND the three coordinating dies) for just $49.95! That's a savings of a little over 25%, and is equal to getting the dies for free!  Who doesn't love a little free in their lives?


Plus, we've got a holiday sale going on... 20% off  70 holiday sets and dies, including the existing dies that coordinate with the new sets!  And to tie up all those pretty cards you'll be making, we've got all of our ribbon collections marked 10% off, too!
