I know it's been a few days since my last post, unfortunately my other son caught a nasty tummy bug and has been very sick. He is recovering now, but the last couple of days haven't been much fun.I decided to kickstart the mojo with this week's Mojo Monday Challenge , I am always inspired by sketches! I just can't seem to go past my new 'Thoughts and Prayers' set and Bella Bleu paper (SU) that my dear friend Pam sent me!!!
I started with a base of Very Vanilla, layered with Not Quite Navy (pierced - not that you can tell in this pic) and then took a piece of Bella Bleu, cut it in two and flipped one side over. The vanilla piece has been mounted on a piece of VV and punched the edge with the Fiskars 'Lace' border punch. I've then added some ivory satin ribbon around it and some blush pearls to the corners! I've stamped the large panel using 'Thoughts and Prayers' in Old Olive and NQN and matted it with NQN card. The sentiment is from the same set, stamped in NQN, cut using the Label 1 dies and dotted the edge with a NQN marker and popped it up on some foam tape.
This project has certainly kickstarted the mojo and hope that I will have time to play some more soon! That's all for today, thanks for visiting!!! :)

Glad to hear you son is on the mend Kathy and that you have found some time to stamp. Gorgeous card! Love the colors and the dp!
There is something about blue cards - fresh, clean not sure what it is but I'm always drawn to them.
I've every intention of trying this sketch too.
Glad to hear your son is feeling better - its a sign of winter isn't it, all those pesky bugs start!
Take care. Sue
