Paper Smooches Picture Perfect Challenge
Being challenged by a photo can be a tough one, and this one was definitely a stretch for me. The challenge photo from Paper Smooches was difficult because I usually layer papers. I just did not see this photo as one where I could layer pattern paper. The inspiration photo . . .
And my creation . . .
I used raised dimensional letter stickers and the Winter Groves set from Paper Smooches. The snowflakes are embossed, and the bird and nest are paper pieced.
One layer cards are so foreign to me!
Supplies Used: Bazzill Cardstock, Little Yellow Bicycle pattern paper (paper piecing), Paper Smooches Stamps, Close To My Heart Ink, Versamark, Stampin' Up Embossing Powder, American Crafts Thickers

Mojo Monday (Seriously Needed My Mojo Back)
I seriously had lost my mojo for a bit . . . it happens. But it was time to jump back into the land of craftiness for me, and what better to get me going then gearing up for some layout classes at my LSS, and then using up my scraps to make a card for Mojo Monday.
The sketch . . .
My design . . .
I have Copic markers, but don't use them often enough. Today I put them to work on shadowing, and while I was not impressed at first, when I came back to photograph the card I was like . . . "Hey, wow!" I definitely need to use those markers because the result on the shadowing is pretty cool.
Supplies Used: Bazzill Cardstock, DCWV Pattern Paper, My Creative Time Stamps and Banner Die, Cricut (snowflakes), Stampin' Up Scallop Oval Punch (5 punches create the scallop circle behind the snowman circle), Stazon Black Ink Pad, Copic Markers, Stickles
