ink!! I love it!

Thinking of you...

Sorry I'm late with my posting....
Here is a card I made late last night.
I don't remember where I got this stamped image from.
But, isn't he cute?!! I love the glasses.

mojo monday sketch 97

Happy Hump Day!!
Here is my card for this weeks mojo sketch challenge...
for some reason I can not copy and paste the sketch sample.
Anyway, here is what I came up with...
I kinda cheated...
I had this image colored already (is that cheating?)
The paper is from k&company - lemon drop designer.
I went to Michaels yesterday and had to have it...lots
of great double sided prints.

I cut the scallop with my cricut and used my corner punch
(that has been sitting my drawer forever).
Have a great day...I hope to get some scrapbooking done
later today so hopefully, I will come back with a layout
today or tomorrow!
Have a great day!

I just didn't have much time to play until last night
and this is what I came up with...
Hope you like it...will be back tomorrow with
a card for mojo monday and hopefully some scrapbook
pages of mammoth.
And, we went to the tast of camarillo on sunday...so, I have
about 50 pictures from that day to scrap too!!
Thank goodness for Jennifer...we will be having an all day &

idea or paper ideas for this trip?
