Mojo Monday 181

It's that time of the week again! Doesn't time fly? Today Tracy & I got together for a crafty day under the guise of demonstrator team training....lol...we did actually talk shop for quite a while (who wouldn't when there's so much going on at Stampin' Up!?), but when it was play time we did a wax resist technique for this week's Mojo Monday.

Here's the sketch:
Yes, there's a lot going on in this sketch. But we were up for the challenge!
And here's our creations: This one's mine - It's Blueberry Crisp DSP with the Two-Step Bird Punch and I've used Marina Mist run through the Polka Dots embossing folder for texture. The scallop circle is that big one....2.75" I think.

This one is Tracy's. She's used Rich Razzlebery DSP from the Brights Stack and RR cardstock. The greeting is so cute on the Modern Label Punch and it's from So Happy For You which is a current SAB set.

Tracy chose the Daffodil Delight ink for the wax resist so that was our starting point in the design. We then deliberated for a considerable time, drank tea, ate lemon cake and bounced ideas off eachother. Needless to say we had a lot of fun and probably each ended up with something so different than we would normally do mainly because Mojo challenges can be just that......challenges!

Hope you enjoyed looking & have made some time for yourself today to do craft.

Cheers
Karen....and Tracy!

Mojo Monday 179

I'm almost a week late with my Mojo - apologies!  No excuses!

Here's the sketch:


And here's my card:




The colours are Perfect Plum, Certainly Celery and Whisper White.  The entire design (apart from the MM sketch) came out of the large flower punched shape which I had leftover from another project.  All supplies are SU except for the eyelets which I've had for so long I can't remember where they came from!   This is another good card for using up scraps.   The flower & it's centre are made using the wax resist technique which we're doing in class this week.  Come along if you want to know more!

Happy Monday!
Karen
