Mojo Monday #87

Designed by Sprytebyrd on Thursday, May 21, 2009
And my last card of the day - be sure to scroll down to see the other 2, please! :o)

This one is for Mojo Monday, this is a great sketch! It's got lots of layers and combines squares and circles, which is hard for me, so this really was a good challenge! The very first thing I thought of when I saw this sketch, was "Boatloads of Love"... I don't know why.. but that's what I thought and I stuck with it! I hope you agree that it's a good choice!I had a hard time with the background paper (the plaid at the top). I didn't think it matched but I needed something up there and then when I got it all together I thought it really looked ok! Both patterned papers are from Daisy Bucket, and if you've ever used their paper (it's phenomenal!) you know that it has this wonderful texture to it... well, I wanted to keep that texture, so I had to choose coordinating papers from my Daisy Bucket stash! I hope it works! I think it does...

Products used: Boatloads of Love by Stampin' Up!, sentiment unknown, Night of Navy and Bordering Blue cardstock by Stampin' Up!, Patterned papers by Daisy Bucket, Scallop border punch by Stampin' Up!, Classic circle and Scallop Circle Nesties, Paper piercing tool, dimensions and skittles.

I really like this one. It is a good "man" card. That's something that I can't do very well if at all!! LOL! I like it though. I think the papers work well with it!!
