Sneaky Mojo - Practically Perfect

Welcome to March! Can you believe it's already time for another mojo sketch? And since it's the first Monday of the month, Mojo Madness is back and bigger than ever! That's right, to celebrate the upcoming Verve release, the Mojo design team will be picking up to SEVEN winners from the entries for this week's Mojo contest! Each winner will receive their pick of any shiny new Verve Stamps set. You won't want to miss out, so hop on over to the Mojo Monday blog to see the sketch and all the details!



Today also starts a week of previews by the Verve Divas and our two fabu-licious March Guest Divas... Jodi Collins and Kelly Lunceford. These two gals are paper crafters extraordinaire! I wish I could be a button in their little button jar to watch all that awesomeness in action!! :) Anyhow, today's sneak preview is of Verve's newest addition... Practically Perfect, which will release Sunday night {March 8}. For more adorable peeks at this set and for a chance to win, hop on over and leave a comment on the Verve Blog.

My sneak peek card uses both the Mojo Monday sketch and the Practically Perfect set. Growing up, The Veleveteen Rabbit was my absolute favorite story, so I'm especially partial to fuzzy little bunnies with a little wear and tear. So when I sat down to design a baby set, I just couldn't think of anything but cute little bunny cards! This is the little boy bunny, and you can see the girl bunny sneaks over on the Verve Blog today. I stamped him on SU! watercolor paper in Memento rich cocoa and watercolored with Watercolor Wonder Crayons and Bashful Blue Twinkling H20's. The squares are all cut with the Classic Squares Nestabilities and I cut out his bow tie and popped it up for a little dimension. I took my colors from this glittertastic My Mind's Eye paper from the Coastal and Natural Collections. I finished off with an embossed Cuttlebug row of buttons across the bottom, leaving room for the Welcome baby sentiment, and added a little Chocolate Chip taffeta bow.

What's in it?
