A Mojo Monday and Teapot Tuesday

I've had such a great weekend making cards. I did four challenges since Friday night but only have time to post one right now.

This card covered two of the four challenges I completed; Mojo Monday and Teapot Tuesday.

I struggled with Mojo Monday all week and every idea I had was ehhh. On Friday night I decided to look at the Inspiration challenge on SCS, but that really didn't do anything for me. Then jumped over to Teapot Tuesday (hosted by the fabulous Cindy Mothermark) and Yeah!! there it was. My inspiration. This weeks teapot was a black and white damask and the minute I saw it I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I changed the rectangle card to a square (not sure if that means I'm disqualified) but with the lovely set I wanted to use I had to go square.

Thank you for looking in.
