By some happy accident I just found that an old favorite sketch challenge of mine, Mojo Monday, is back! As a new papercrafter, Mojo Monday was one of the first challenges that I played along with regularly as I stretched out my creative wings and I was sad when it retired back in 2017. But it's back and I'm playing along with the current sketch.
One of the things I always loved about the Mojo sketches were the layers! They allowed me to get creative with pattern and texture so for this card I dug deep into my patterned paper stash and used a lots of different SU papers. And in a nod to Julee, the Mojo creator, I used a favorite flower from Verve. The colors from the latest challenge at The Color Throwdown inspired the floral theme and since Mother's Day will be here before you know it I thought this was a perfect card for that. And at Tic Tac Toe I managed to squeeze in the first row down - as long as "mother" is a good enough substitute for "mom' LOL!
Thanks for stopping by!
