Mojo Monday 160

I haven't done a Mojo Monday for ages. This is this weeks sketch.

This is my version of the sketch.

You cant quite see but the flower has been embossed with Black Embossing Powder and it really makes the flowers pop out.  The buttons are done with the button die and have crystal effects on them
Stamps:  Inspired By Nature, En Francais and Pendant Park (the background under the flower)

Paper:  Black Vanilla and Sahara Sand
Ink:  Sahara Sand and Versamark
Acessories:  Embossing Powder, Punch and ribbon

More Brayer Cards

As we have been doing Brayer cards at class this month I just have a couple more cards to share with you.
Once again I have used Cameo Coral and Black Cardstock, the background has been brayered onto glossy cardstock and stamped with stamps from Inspired by Nature and Garden Whimsy.
I often don't put a greeting on the card as most cards can be used as Thankyou or Birthday etc so I can put the greeting on when I am ready to use it.



This card has been made with one of the new In Colours - Tangerine Tango and black (again!!)

The front was first stamped with Versamark using the Upsy Daisy Stamp and then it has just been brayered with Tangerine Tango on the glossy cardstock. I haven't worried that the distribution is a little uneven as I am trying to get that misty look (well that's the look I decided it was going to be when it didn't brayer on all that evenly!!) After that was done I stamped over the top with Tangerine Tango a couple of times.

More on the June Classes

Another technique we are looking at this month is faux embossing. This technique works well with any solid stamp such as "Inspired by Nature " or Upsy Daisy. It was an introduction to the Stamp A Ma Jig for a few people, and after a few tries everyone managed to come up with a lovely card using the Upsy Daisy Stamp. There are a few places in Thursdays classes both afternoon and night, so if you are interested come along a try out a new technique. See the side box on classes for contact details.
