It has been quite a while since I've created a card using JULEE's Mojo Monday sketch challenge. Each Monday on Julee's blog called, POETIC ARTISTRY, Julee posts a challenging design sketch and this week's was very creative and VERY challenging.
One of my favorite Stampin' Up! retired sets is called "Roosting" and this is the set I chose to use for this week's Mojo Monday 40 layout. The image is colored with Prismacolor pencils.
I cut the circles (both round and scalloped) with Nestabilities dies. The flowered designer paper is from Daisy D's. The "Merci" stamp is from Justjohanna. Then I "blinged" it all up in a farmyard kind of way with feathers and rick-rack.
Thanks Julee for another challenging sketch and the opportunity to stretch the imagination for creative layouts.
Thanks for stopping by!
Wow! Your coloring is gorgeous. It must have taken forever to make this card. I love it! Thanks for visiting my blog.

ReplyDeleteAbout the lavender - (I posted a comment on an earlier post because I needed yr address) this plant does not need much water but it does need lots of sun!
Another great card - - love the feathers. Your coloring and color choices are superb, too.
ReplyDeleteAnother BEAUTY Ms Jennifer! You ought to consider circuit training, teaching "colouring-challenged" folks (like me) how to do what YOU do!
ReplyDeleteMy jaw is on the floor! This is stunning, what a lot of work went into this card! I wouldn't want to part with it, it is a work of art!
