Mojo Monday #169 & The Paper Players #28


Hey there, friends!  I have a card to share for the newest Mojo Monday sketch, and this came at the perfect time for me as I was finishing up a set of cards for a friend and was kind of stuck for ideas.  I paired it up with a fun challenge at The Paper Players to use your favorite color combo.  I have many favorites, but I really love the combo of red, aqua, and rustic white, so that's what I chose to work with.


There are lots of PTI goodies on this one, but I did use a sentiment from Verve!  I love the fonts in the Dream Big set.  The frame is PTI's Fillable Frames #10 and the flower die and stamp are from Beautiful Blooms II.  It's a little hard to see, but the Rustic White background is debossed with the Polka Dots impression plate.

Cardstock:  Papertrey Ink (Pure Poppy, Rustic White)
Patterned paper:  Papertrey Ink (2008 Bitty Dot Basics)
Stamps:  Papertrey Ink (Fillable Frames #10, Beautiful Blooms II)
Ink:  Clearsnap (Cranberry, Seaglass), Papertrey Ink (Chai tea dye), Copic BG13
Tools:  Papertrey Ink (Mat Stack #4 die, Fillable Frames #10 die, Beautiful Blooms die, Polka Dot impression plate), EK Success (corner rounder)
Accessories:  Papertrey Ink (ribbon, button), Queen & Co. (pearls), thread, DMC floss

This is a really great sketch that will be going in my file to use again!  

Thanks for stopping by tonight!  I will be back in a bit with the new ColourQ challenge, so I hope you'll come back soon!  Have a great night!

Oh my, Christina, you have knocked this one out of the park! Just gorgeous---this IS a great color combo and CAS, but with enough elements to really make it stand out. Wish I could get my sewing to look like yours!
