Mo's Challenge #208

Halloween/Fantasy!

Our hostess for this week's Mo's Challenge is Debbie. She has asked us  to make Halloween or fantasy themed cards or projects. I love making Halloween cards but don't have much use for them, so this one is done with sort of a Halloween feel, but it's actually an anniversary card.

Inside: " Whooo loves ya baby?

I do, that's whooo!

Happy Anniversary, Sweetheart!"

Mo's Challenge #207

They Call Me Mellow Yellow!

This week Kim is our hostess for Mo's Challenge. She asked us to make a card or project using Mo's favorite color, which happens to be yellow...a bright and sunny color for a girl with a sunny disposition!

Unfortunately, this little she-bear isn't too bright or sunny! She's not feeling 'beary' well at all!
Her bathrobe is paper-pieced, but the gingham pattern doesn't show up very well.

Images: "Beary Sick" , female version (a male version is also available, and both come with a digital sentiment) from Mo's Digital Pencil, Stamped sentiment

Tools: Copics, Cuttlebug with Scalloped oval die, Circle punches, MS Hydrangea punch, Xacto knife, Glue dots, Mounting tape

Papers: SU! Daffodil and Summer Sun, Neenah white, PTI white, DP

Embellishments: Satin ribbon, Yellow Gingham ribbon, Tiny pearl cabochons

Mo's Challenge #206

Vintage Late 40's to Early 50's

Our hostess for Mo's Challenge this week, Cathy, wants projects with a vintage theme using at least one image from Mo's Digital Pencil. Vintage can mean different things to different people, so feel free to use your interpretation of your favorite vintage era!

This reminds me of kitchens from the late 40's and early 50's when fruit themes were popular, and kitchen gadgets all had wooden handles painted red or green! My mother had colored plaster fruit plaques on the walls and her small utensils had green handles! She also had a white tablecloth with a red aster print! I think Mummu would feel at home in a kitchen like that!

This is the same card with a few changes. The more I looked at the original, the less I cared for it. I guess I'm just not too fond of symmetry! I added a few more red daisies and leaves, and I'm much happier with it now!

Images: "Mummu's Letter" from Mo's Digital Pencil, Digital sentiment

Tools: Copics, Sewing machine, SU! scallop border and daisy punches, MS Hydrangea punch, Nellie Snellen embossing rose leaf punch set

Papers: SU! Poppy Parade, Bashful Blue, Neenah white, Digital DP

Embellishments: Tiny pearl cabochons, Brads

Mo's Challenge #205

Something Sweet or Good to Eat!

Tracy is our hostess for Mo's Challenge this week, and she wants us to use at least one image from Mo's Digital Pencil to make a card or project that shows something sweet! It could feature a food item

 or just a sweet image...it's up to you!

I think this fits both criteria. Strawberries are delicious and this little girl
certainly is sweet! She's one of Mo's series of  "Fruit Girls"....each one as cute as the next!

Images: "Strawberry Girl" from Mo's Digital Pencil, Digital strawberry sentiment

Tools: Copics, Cuttlebug with Daisy dies, Nellie Snellen embossing leaf punch set, Mounting tape, Sewing machine

Papers: SU! Blush Blossom, Garden Green, Neenah white, Digital DP

Embellishments: Corduroy brads, Grosgrain ribbon

Mo's Challenge is having an alphabet challenge this week! Your card or project is to have something to do with the letter 'H', so put on your thinking cap, make something wonderful and enter for a chance to win a $5.00 gift certificate to Mo's Digital Pencil.

I love Hawaii, so this image was a natural to fit the theme, along with the hibiscus flowers!
