Mojo Monday #228

This is a somewhat loose interpretation of the sketch over at Mojo Monday. Once I got started the card took on a life of it's own! I was playing with a bunch of techniques which I'll show you below.

For the frame I covered with with sand colors paint dabbers, then sprayed it with walnut ink. Before it could dry I added clear crackle paint to the top.

For the flower I used crocheted ribbon and ran a thread through the edge of it, pulled it tight, then tied the two ends together to form a flower.

For the damask design on the paper, I used chalk ink with a stencil to add the pattern. Then sewed the edges of the card and distressed the edges.

CFC38, Mojo Monday 226, and PDCC117- Skunk with flower

My original inspiration for this card was Casual Fridays and I had the movie Bambie in mind when I made it. The little skunk in that movie is so freakin' cute! I'm loving the colors of this week's Play Date Cafe so I made another card with the colors, and then used the layout from this week's Mojo Monday which I haven't played along with in FOREVER! I actually got this stamp set while at Papertrey Ink's Stamp-A-Faire event in Cincinnati over the summer for FREE- gotta love that!
