Mojo Monday 291

 

I decided to go with a little different perspective on this challenge.

 

1.  Using the technique of triple stamping on the paper ribbon I used a background stamp (stamped it twice using 2 different colors), then use a french word background stamp, finishing up with a wheat stamp. 

2.  I used Nestabilities to cut out the sentiment and the purple shadow behind it.

3.  Used honey comb embossing folder from stampin up.  Had to overlay it to cover the card front. It lines up pretty good.

  

 

2nd Try For Mojo Monday 290

 

 

2nd try.

#1.  Used 4 different stamp sets for the top portion.

#2.  Used the same embossing folder for the green, purple paper and ribbon.

3.  Use large labels from spellbinders and type in Happy Mother's Day from the computer.

#4.  Gray ribbon used foe bow method.

This is my view on this challenge.  I used paint chips for the four squares and the butterfly's.  I found that its not a good idea to stamp on paint chips.  So I used a scrap piece of pattern card stock to stamp my saying on.  I hope you enjoy.

 Just finished cleaning my craft room of scraps.  They were everywhere, boxes, large gift bags and in a 10 drawer cart.  This was after seeing a youtube video on simple simple flash card 2.0.  So I started cutting paper to the proper sizes.  Now I have 6 shoe boxes of paper ready to go at a moment notice of making a quick card.  If you check out me on Pinterest and type in (Maggi Shafer) and go to the card ideas you will find the video's there.  There are amazing card ideas from many wonderful crafter's. Sorry for all the rambling but now I know what color and pattern paper I have in my stash. Made this card from scraps.  I cut off the back of the brads and used a glue dot to attach them to the card.  Took two rectangles and adhered them to a white piece of paper and cut it down and cut on a diagonal.

 

 

 

St. Patty's cupcakes

 

My Granddaughter Tajia decorated the cupcakes for me.  Except for one little problem my husband and daughter Michelle kept eating the Andie Mints off of them.  We came up short for the cupcakes.

 

St. Patty's Day Treat

A last minute treat for my grandsons class.  I was having a creative block when it was coming to St. Patty's Day treats.  So I cut 5 1/4 X 5 1/2 mellow moss card stock from stampin up and ran it through my crimper to give some texture.  Then I put foam shamrocks on that I bought at my local craft store a couple years ago.  I was going to put ribbon on it but it didn't look good.  So I went on line and looked up free word art for St. Patty's day and chose this one.  Copy and Paste and here you have a St. Patty's Day treat bar.

My Daughter's Wedding Cake

 

This is my daughter Christi's Wedding Cake.  We also make cup cake to go with it.

It was a small wedding at home with family and friends.  We had 50 plus people in our home.

 

 

I made the cake myself.  It was a yellow cake with lemon and raspberry filling.  Rolled fondant frosting and sugar paste flowers.

 

 

 

The cup cakes were filled with Lemon and Raspberry filling with Whip cream frosting.

I made the flower's on top too.  My daughter Christi helped me fill them and then my other

daughter Michelle piped on the frosting and added the flowers.  Sierra, Michelle 4 month old daughter ( my granddaughter)  entertained us during the whole process.  It was a family affair.

 

 

This was a do it yourself from start to finish wedding.

My sister-in-law saw them and asked if I could do 5 for her work.

Back To School Treat Boxes

And I motified the box from my stampin up demonstrator.

 

 



Baby Shower Invites

I got the idea off the Internet for a bbq shower invite.

Its a new trist to have couples and family at baby showers.

My daughter wanted a country theme.

I added its a girl on the tag instead of  Levi.

All the information is on the card with a handkerchief topper.

I used my cricut imagine for this project.
