Wishing You Joy

Hi friends! I just couldn't put that gorgeous Mondo Amaryllis down, so I have another Essentials by Ellen card for you today.

For this card, I started with a panel of watercolor paper that I smooshed with Spectrum Noir Glitz and Glamour sparkle liquid inks. They are so sparkly and vibrant! I then stamped the amaryllis image on the smooshed background in black ink, then fussy cut just the flower portion.

I stamped the entire image again on alcohol marker paper and colored with Spectrum Noir markers. This image was die cut with the coordinating die, and then I glued the fussy cut flower portion down and accented with a white gel pen. I went with a super simple layout, so I wouldn't distract from that gorgeous flower. For the sentiment, I stamped just the wishing you portion of one sentiment and finished with the JOY word, coloring it with the sparkle brush pens.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! If you haven't already, be sure to check out all the new releases at Ellen Hutson this week.

Mojo Monday 527

Hi everyone! it's time for a new Mojo Monday sketch! Are you ready to play? I so appreciate everyone who plays along. It's always fun peeking in on your creations!

As always, you're free to play along with any papercrafting products your heart desires and enter as many creations as you like. Use the sketch as inspiration for your creation, then come link it up below so I can come take a look! The linky for this challenge will close on November 24, 2019. I have included dimensions on the graphic later in this post, but feel free to change them up to suit your needs.

Please note that this will be the final sketch of 2019, as I'll be taking time off for the holidays. Sketches will resume January 6, 2020. 

This Mojo is another one that's great for using up designer paper. I definitely have a lifetime supply of designer paper, so need to work on using it more! How about you?

This new Beautiful Memories stamp set from Reverse Confetti really tugs on my heartstrings. There are so many beautiful sentiments for sympathy and encouragement cards, and I can't get enouch of these beautiful bluebells. I colored them up with Kuretake clean color real bursh markers and then cut with the coordinating confetti cuts.

I used some Sweet Stripes paper for the middle layer, but chose to use a heart stencil for the iced aqua layers, blending them tone on tone. Each layer is matted with navy and I finished with a seam binding bow. If you haven't had a chance be sure to check out the fabulous NEW release at Reverse Confetti! It's definitely worth a peek!

Alrighty, now it's your turn! I hope you enjoy creating with this sketch! Can't wait to see what you create!
