Mojo Monday #310 - Tree House

Hi Friends -
Hope you are having a good weekend!

Just a little something I made for my friend who wanted a welcome card for a new neighbor.  Such a lovely thought!  And it has been so sunny with a beautiful blue sky this week, I was inspired by nature.

Happy Day -

Mojo Monday #291 {Part Two}

Hello Friends -
Happy Weekend!

Wow, this was a busy week and I look to the next five weeks as more of the same and then SUMMER VACATION!!  Woohoo!!  {I think I look forward to it more than my children!!}

Okay, so here I go again with this Mojo Monday sketch inspiration {I have the image at the bottom of this entry.}

Oh my goodness am I in love with this Lily Bee Design paper!!  This card was so simple and quick that I will make more cards this weekend to have on hand.  {Those are 1.25" strips for the pennants.  I know.  Sometimes I do not know what the dimension should be.  But this worked out well on the 4.25" square card.}

This is a 4.25" x 4.25" card.

Mojo Monday #290 and My Christmas Card Stash is Low Blog Hop -

Hello Friends -
I hope you have had a good week!

Super busy here . . . mostly my own doing.  But those issues are for another day!

Welcome to the My Christmas Card Stash is Low Hop. If you are new to the Tool Shed, please become a follower and let me know you were here!

I was inspired by the Mojo Monday sketch here and this is what I made:
 
This is a 5.5" x 4.25" card.
This card is a bit different than what I would usually make.  I used the same print paper just turned 90 degrees to give some cohesion rather than use more printed paper.  The little house is punched from another paper piece of the 6x6 pad.  {I used all of the polka dot papers in this pad and have all of the stripes and many of the prints left that I am never quite sure how to use.  My own personal challenge is to find a way to use all of these prints!}

Patten Paper - My Mind's Eye
