Happy Monday! It's the first Monday in June, so that means it's contest time over at the
Mojo Monday blog. Pllay along with this week's sketch for a chance to win some free Verve! And today's the last day to get your entries in for
Verve's Sizzlin' Summer Fun Project Parade, so don't delay. I want to see those summery creations! :)
My card for this week's sketch uses some moldy oldy paper from Cosmo Cricket. I think it was part of the Little Girls scrapbook kit back in the day. LOVE this paper - so frilly and fun! I did a little distressing, inked the edges with a little Antique Linen and even pulled out the old trusty sewing machine for this one. The flowers and sentiment are from the
Believe set and I hand trimmed them, layered them and added a thick coat of glitter glaze mixture for the ultimate sparkle experience! :-) Everything's better when it sparkles, right?
The little "leaves" are cut with the Flourish QuicKutz die and I added a fun border punch to the Coredination's cardstock and blinged it up with some red rhinestone flowers. For the sentiment, I just masked off the bottom line with scotch tape, then embossed just the Celebrate word onto vellum and stitched directly to the patterned paper. A couple sweet little ribbon tabs and my card was done!
There you have it. Hope you have a fantastic start to your week! I've still been trying to get over the sickness I picked up in Montana. I keep thinking I'm better... then relapse! But starting today I'm putting mind over matter and just going to will myself to be okay! :)

Beautiful card; great colors! I like the vellum sentiment panel and the sparkly flowers!
Julie, what an ABSOLUTELY elegant and lovely beyond belief design. I don't know what is more stunning the colors or your cutting!!! I cannot cut, so this is not the card for me. I will just have to bookmark it and look at it from a distance! Thanks for always sharing your inspiring talents and gifts in design and creativity. You are obviously gifted from the Lord.
