Today is that weird post-Thanksgiving day known around here as "Black Friday." It's a day when bargain-hunting holiday shoppers go out in the middle of the night and try to score details at all the big box stores. I consider myself to be mainly an armchair shopper and early this morning when people were likely running around in the cold, I was all snuggly and warm in my bed!
So when I got up this morning I figured I better post this card that I made the other day for the color challenge at Color Throwdown and the sketch at MOJO. It's been a while since I've participated in the MOJO challenge and I really liked those circles.
Even though I liked the circles, I thought it would be fun to substitute one of them for a picture frame. I embossed one of the Lucky Limeade circles with the Chevron embossing folder then paper pierced a circle around the Bermuda Bay circle. I found some Soft Sky DSP in my stash so I paper pieced the photo frame from it. Snap! That was easy!
If you were brave enough to do some early shopping today I hope you were successful! Thanks for stopping by!

I'm like you Jen...I stayed in! I love your whimsical card~
Very cute design! Thanks for joining us for the Color Throwdown.
I would have slept in, made cards, and relaxed, but we had Thanksgiving #2 today...tomorrow I plan only the above : ) Your card is darling. Perfect colors too. Love the embossing on the green circle.
However do you find the time to create every day? Love this card, Jen. You have a way of focusing (sorry for the pun) our attention on the image and message. When I saw, "OH SNAP!", I couldn't help myself...I thought, "OH CR_P!" LOL!
I, too, would never venture out on Black Friday. Luckily, all my gifts are bought and wrapped. MUST find some time to create!
Jen, I really love the clean design of your card! You totally rocked both the mojo sketch and the throwdown colors! Thanks for playing along with us this week!
