Mojo 204

Pin It Now! I attempted another Mojo Monday challenge & here's the result:


When I first saw the sketch I immediately knew I wanted to ink up one of the cutest witches I've seen so I got out the "Greeting Card Kids" set. I started with Concord Crush for the base & adhered a 2 1/4" x 3 3/4" piece of Pear Pizzazz designer series paper. I then used the Circle Scissor Plus to cut out 2 different sized circles (the smallest is 2 3/4" I believe), one from Whisper White card stock & the other from Pumpkin Pie card stock. I then stamped the image using StazOn & colored her using Stampin' Write markers. I used Snail to adhere the circles together & to put them onto the 3" black square. I added the 1/4" grosgrain ribbon (Pumpkin Pie) behind the square & popped the entire layer up on dimensionals. I then used some Vanilla Shimmer Smooch Spritz on the entire card before adding the rhinestones in the corner. I first saw Mary Fish color the rhinestones using a Sharpie & had an "Ah ha!" moment: I've had a box of a lot of different colored Sharpies sitting around that I just haven't been able to get rid of; I got it out today & found a green I thought looks very close to Pear Pizzazz :)

This sketch went together so quickly; I will definitely be using this one again in the future :) I even managed to use 3 different items that I haven't played with in forever: "Greeting Card Kids" stamp set; Circle Scissor Plus; & Smooch Spritz. And I also finally had a reason to get out those Sharpies I've been saving for literally years (I think I bought them for my 16 year old for a school project back in Middle School...)  :)

So what can you find to use today that you've been "neglecting" for awhile? Have fun & get creative!!! :)
