Mojo Monday 550

Hi friends! It's already time for a new Mojo Monday sketch! The past few weeks have gone by in a flash!  This will be the final Mojo Monday sketch of 2020, as I'll be taking a holiday break in December and the first part of January. 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 29, 2020. I have included dimensions on the graphic later in this post, but feel free to change them up to suit your needs.



The sketch for this challenge is based off of this card I created during my time on the Splitcoaststampers Dirty Dozen. It was my favorite card that month, and I still love it!  I used some pearlized cream cardstock so it shimmers and created the background using the Texture Tiles 1 stamp set from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. (All background stamps are on SALE through 11/12!). After stamping the script background repeatedly in soft gray ink, I then added some Prima washi tape across the bottom, coloring in some of the butterflies with Zig clean color brush markers.

Next I stamped the butterflies from Made New on the background and also on a separate piece of paper.  I colored the butterflies with the same markers, then cut just the wings out and popped up over the background for a little dimension.



The sentiment is from the Timeless Hymns set, and is stamped on a doily die cut.  I stamped the same texture tile in the background, then splattered some black ink randomly all over my two stamped pieces.  I decided I needed one more butterfly, so added the little one sitting on the sentiment, using the same technique as the other butterflies. I finished off with some antique linen ink around the edges, then a black mat and some shabby seam binding.

It's Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps' 13th birthday this month, and each week they're having a new sale.  This week's sale is 20% off all stamps in the Backgrounds and Creative Worship categories.


Alrighty, now it's your turn! I hope you enjoy creating with this sketch! Thanks so much for stopping by!

I'm not great with sketches but yours are always perfect! And so is this card - as are all your cards! I still have the card you sent me years ago with a verve order placed for my birthday - proudly displayed in my office and a source of inspiration and calm to me whenever I glance at it!

I did finally get a card finished using your sketch but it took me so long, I missed the deadline! If you want to see how I was inspired, here's the link http://katescardcorner.blogspot.com/2020/12/in-instant.html!
