Mojo Monday



It's tall and skinny card week with the last Mojo Monday Challenge of the month!  When I saw the vertical line of circles in the sketch, I knew I wanted to use balloons to create a birthday card.  You can never have too many birthday cards in your stash!  I stamped and fussy cut the balloon images from Verve's Birthday Bash set then hand drew the strings.  The sentiment is from Moments Remembered and the heart border is from BorderlineDon't you just love how you can mix and match the different Verve sets?!  For perfect positioning of the sentiment and border, I used my trusty MISTI - the Most Incredible Stamp Tool Invented!   My card dimensions are 3 1/2" wide x 5 1/2".

PAPER: Cherry on Top Designer Series paper stack by SU; Watermelon Wonder (SU), White.

News Flash!!  Dina Kowal just posted her genius solution for stamping with a MISTI using stamps on wooden blocks!  Check out her video HERE.  Now I'm keeping a look out for some Duplo blocks at a second hand store!
