Mojo vacation

While my mojo has been on vacation I took an online class from Martha Lever called Color Drop Flowers. (scroll down to find the class) I highly recommend it! I have had so much fun practicing painting these flowers and also my lettering. Joanne Sharp has another class that just started called Artful Alphabets (scroll down to find this class)

I still need more practice with my lettering and a shaky hand doesn't help either but it is still fun!

April Showers

This is another card I made for a swap on Card Camp.

The digi image from Sassy Cheryl is colored with Prismacolor pencils and die cut with Spellbinders labels 2.

Chess

Did you think that I had run away and joined the Navy? LOL I think my Mojo did....he has been missing for a while now!


I made this card for the masculine card swap on Card Camp. The papers are from Basic Gray. I stamped the chess set with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and then added a shadow with pencil.

Birthday card

It is difficult for me to make a masculine card but my son's birthday is coming up on April 2nd so I had to do something! My mojo is still missing as far as making cards goes but I did make this card using some lettering.

Spring is in the air

I have been very neglectful of my blog lately and I still do not have a card to share with you. Just so you know that I am alive and kicking I thought I would share a page from my lettering journal with you.

Last month I took an online class with Joanne Sharpe, Letter Love 101. I highly recommend this class if you would like to learn  lettering. You can sign up and take the class anytime and it is a self paced class so there is no rush to get things done.

More Marianne & Sugar Nellie

I used Creatables LRO 180 for this simple easel card. The dig is from Sugar Nellie colored with pencils. To keep the easel standing I just used a row of liquid pearls.
