Another Mojo Monday Sketch Card...

Another Mojo Monday inspired card. This one is from week 135. I've been on a roll with these.
I will have to move on and try a card without with the Mojo Monday help. Hope you enjoy!!


I used Cosmo Cricut papers, ribbon from JoAnn's and Zooballoo Cricut Cartridge with my Gypsy.


Thanks for Looking,

Happy Birthday Stephanie

I make birthday cards for everyone at work. I have seen the bird house cut used a lot at the Cricut message board lately and thought I would try it out. I used Stampin up and K&Co papers and cardstock. The punch is Martha Stewart and the stamp (inside) is a Hero Arts.

My own personnal challange

I currently have 31 cricut cartridges (not nearly as many as a would perfer to have). But I find that many of the images are not being used. Some I would probably not use unless I was forced to do so. So I have issued a challange to myself. First I have temporily numbered my cartidges 1 to 31. Then I went on line and used a random number generator to randomly choose which of the 31 cartidges I would use. Also each cartridge has 50 different buttons/images, so again I went to the random generator to choose which one I would use for my card.

So for my first personnal challange the random generator picked the "M" from All Mixed Up. Because this mostly is a font cartidge I used the random generator to pick a second cartidge and image. The second one was the Lady Bug from Walk in My Garden.

So this is what I went with. A girl at work (could you guess her name is Mary??) has a birthday coming up next month and I need a card of course.

• Front layer is from K & Company Brenda Walton Madeline paper pack.

What A Hot Day

Wow, we hit 96 degrees today. Its days like these that I wish I had air conditioning. Well at least my craft room is in the basement, which is always cooler than the rest of the house. So off to the craft room I went.

I made this card for a co-worker. She loves to work out in her garden. So I figured I would make a garden themed card. This is for her use, I just thought I would make her a card just for the heck of it.

The Cricut cartidge used was Walk in My Garden. The cardstock is Old Olive from Stampin Up. The designer paper is from K&Co.

Three little sheep went out to play

Outside of Card

Inside of card

Here is a card I made a few months ago using my cricut expression. I used Paper Doll Dress Up for the sheep and fence. I used Zooballoo for the grass, which I fused together in Design Studio, and the tree. All other supplies I used from my stash I've bought over the years and have no idea who the makers are (sorry). This card is kind of big at 6'" x 6". Though I left the card free of sentiment because I'm not sure what I would use this card for. I suppose this could be used for a new baby, new home or maybe just to say Hi.
