Feel Better


Feel Better, originally uploaded by scrapmavin1.

I was looking around for different challenges and contests to get myself out of a creative funk. I found this terrific blog that has sketches every week. So i decided to go ahead an do the sketch for MOJO77

I find sketches allow me to experiment with my supplies, use up left over paper (like this card :)), and try new color schemes. The color scheme in this card is definitely out of the ordinary for me, but I think it worked. It only required two stamps from the Hero Arts Heartfelt Messages, left over paper and tag from the Making Memories Notes collection, leftover ribbon, and one piece of card stock.

Cuttlebug Challenge #20

I found out about this great little challenge through Paper Craft Planet. It expires today for anyone reading so hurry up and get your card done. Then post the link here: Cuttlebug Blog. If you do not get a chance to post your card, definitely check out the blog . There are lots of great ideas.

About the card: I used Making Memories "Notes" line for the embellishments and matting paper, Cuttlebug embossing folder--bloom dots, and MSE stamps.

BTW hop on over to My Sentiments Exactly Blog to get a great deal on stamps every Thursday. Two sets of Clear Stamps for less than 15 bucks total including shipping. She usually does a video on Wednesday demonstrating the stamps.
