.... my favorite day of the week!! I'd like to give the ladies at Mojo Monday the credit for Monday being my favorite day, but the truth is, it's always been my favorite day. Monday's are what I consider a fresh start; it's a whole new week to make a difference or save the world. Since I'm not likely to be doing any world saving, I'll have to settle for making a difference in some small way. :)
Today's sketch challenge over at Mojo Monday is wonderful. I'm working from home today and could not help myself, I had to stop and make a card. I just love how this card turned out. The colors in this DP set are fabulous. I love blues and greens and when the two marry and make BlueGreen... well then I'm in heaven.
I took an extra fine Prisma marker to the sentiment and gave it a bit of a broken outline. You can see it if you enlarge the card all the way. I was thrilled that it showed up in the picture.
Not much in the way of supplies but here is the list:
Stamp: Verve
Paper: Bazzill textured black and white (reverse side); Kaisercraft DP Chapter One
Extras: SU! ribbon, Kaisercraft pearls, SU! punches; Prisma Marker Black
Thank you for stopping by and Happy Monday!!!
PS - If you are thinking to yourself "What kind of a freak likes Mondays???"; you are not alone. Every single one of my friends states my love of Mondays (all on it's own) qualifies me for the "freak of nature" title; we won't get into the other long list of reasons I'm holding that title. :D
Gorgeous card. I love how you interpreted the sketch. This looks amazing!

This is so fresh and ALIVE! I love it.
ReplyDeleteLOL at your Monday comments. Friday is my fave day of the week, as it sets me up for the weekend - it just means I have less time to make a difference or save the world than you, that's all! Where's my cape? I'll go find it right after I have little rest!
Hugs, Sandra
A great card for a great sketch. Love that you have used black for the backgrounds against those fabulously coloured papers. Hugs, Lesley
