Found My MoJo

I found my mojo and have at least 3 cards to proove it:

This the flower pot card (second one is the insert)

Insert to the Pot Card

This emboss water technique, some Haiku DSP, a scallop die and circle cutter make this one a simple yet beautiful card (I know its in the eyes of the beholder but my be-held eyes love it.

Both of these cards have pink pirouette, kiwi kiss paper.

I will post the receipe for both cards later tonight.

Quick & Easy with the Big Shot

So I had to add a quick note to my daughter’s teacher this week, so rather than tear out a scrap of paper I did the the following instead:

• Went up to my Craft room (10 seconds)
• Took out a 1/2 sheet of cut Kraft colored  cardstock (81/2 x 11 cut in half) – 2.5 seconds.  It was already cut.
• Took a scrap sheet of Pink Pirouette cardstock (out of  loose pieces box of cardstock) – 2.5 seconds.  It was already scrap sized.
• Used the Stampin’ Up Top Note Bigz Die to cute a card base – (I left a piece uncut on the top so that I could use this as an open card than a full top note (20 seconds)
• Cut out 3 flowers from the Daisies Flower #2 Bigz Die using Pink Pirouette Cardstock (20 seconds)
• Adhere all 3 pieces of the Daisy#2 die (30 seconds) and attached a Kraft Corduroy button to Daisies Die ensemble (10 seconds)
• Attached and Tied Kraft Taffeta Ribbon to the top (20 seconds)
• Stamped bloom from the Bloomin Beautiful stamp set (10 Seconds)

So about 2 1/2 minutes to make a card.  Simple and Quick?
