Mojo Monday




Good Monday everyone! After MANY days of rain this month, it's finally looking promising with seeing some sun this week! Julee has another awesome Mojo Monday Challenge sketch for us, and as you can see, I went with a flipped version.  Remember those dew drop embellishments that were so popular years ago?  Well, I have LOTS still in my stash and decided to resurrect them on this card.  Using a fine tip glue pen (SU) really makes adhering them so easy!
Two of my favorite distress inks to combine for a beautiful aqua background are Cracked Pistachio and Evergreen Bough.  It blends well with SU's Pool Party CS which I layered with some of their gold striped vellum paper.  Here's what else I used...

STAMPS: Moments Remembered (Verve), Hope Blooms (Verve).
DIES: Small Marianna Vine Background and Outline dies by Poppystamps; Stitched rectangle die by Lil' Inker Designs.

Another shot that captures more of the shine from the mirror gold cardstock I used (a new purchase from Altenew)...

    This card is definitely my favorite interpretation of Mojo Monday! The flowers, foiling, watercoloring all came together so nicely! TFS :)
