MOJO MONDAY 255

So it's been a busy stampin' week for me!!! I've been making swaps for the Regional Convention in Providence, RI, this weekend, plus an organized swap that I do! So that's 30 cards-2 different designs!!! Lots of work, but so much fun!!!!

So when I saw this weeks Mojo Monday, I had hoped to get to it, but wasn't sure I could!

 However, life happens! Here's the design:


Here's my take on it!


Unfortunately, I was in need of a sympathy card this week, so I figured I'd combine the Mojo sketch & that need!  I actually love how this card came out!

I kept it very monochromatic & simple to fit the sympathy theme. I just pulled some scraps out, & the Wisteria Wonder jumped out at me! The DSP comes from one of last year's packets with the doilies in it! Don't even remember the name! But it works perfectly here!

This stamp set, Love & Sympathy, is still available in the catalog (#122797, $11.95 for clear set). It's my total "go-to" set for sympathy cards! So pretty. The saying for the inside is also beautiful.  

The ribbon you might recognize is last year's Crochet Trim Chantilly. I miss that! I love the one we have now, but this is thinner & works for stuff like this!

I've been using the Natural White cardstock almost exclusively for the card bases lately! I just love the way it looks!!! It's a little more interesting & somewhat thicker & heavier than the Whisper White. It definitely doesn't give the same stamp impression though!

Anyway, RIP Sylvia's dad. I hope this little card lets you know that you are loved and in my prayers.

If you'd like more details, please feel free to ask!
 
Happy Stampin'!
