Easter Greetings for Mojo Monday # 182

I thought it would be fun to start participating in some sketch challenges and I found my first one; Mojo Monday #182 .

Once again I used my favorite stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog which is Easter Blossoms. I've been having visions of using this set on Crumb Cake with the white gel pen so this was my chance! The background is layered with the  Springtime Vintage Designer Series Paper.I added a layer of Regal Rose and Crumb Cake and stamped the branch image onto the Crumb Cake using Always Artichoke Classic Ink. This is where I added a little bit of the White Gel Pen to make it look like the little blossoms you see on all the trees in the Spring! I gathered the Always Artichoke Seam Binding using Sticky Strip and embellished it with the Boho Blossoms and an Antique Brad. I just love the Vintage look! Of course I had to finish it off and make it dainty using the Basic Pearls all around the scallop. Don't you just love it?

Vintage Punch Potpourri

This is the card I made for my friend Elva's birthday last weekend. She is a very classy girl and I thought creating a vintage looking card would be perfect for her! I embossed the bird from the Punch Potpourri hostess stamp set and punched it out using the bird punch. I put one of the antique brads through the wing of the bird and popped it up using a dimensional. I created layer using card stock and designer series paper. I also stamped the heart from the same stamp set on the designer series paper in cherry cobbler to help build on the layers of the card. I ran the black card stock through my Big Shot Machine using the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder. I used the cutter kit to wear the edges of the card stock and make it look worn. As a finishing touch I spayed the card with Silver Foil Smooch Spritz to give it a little sparkle which I know Elva loves.
