Some of old Mojo…
Hi again,
It is freezing cold and pouring down with rain here in Melbourne on a wintery holiday Monday afternoon. So glad that I won’t be fighting my way home from work in it – that will be for tomorrow instead! We really need the rain desperately to fill the water storages, so I’m not begrudging it.
After spending the morning doing chores, I have put together this card based on an old Mojo Monday Week #73 sketch from back in February. I am having a bit of a fling with Basic Gray at the moment, but it just goes so well with all of the current In Colors. I have used the bird from Friends 24-7 stamp set again as it is such a classic image. The rest is pretty self evident. It think this is a gender neutral card that is handy to have in your card stash.

Edited to add:
I had some of the pink brocade background left from a previous card, so I decided to create the same design in pink. This time I kept the main elements flat and then stamped and cut out the bird and raised it on foam tape to give it a 3-D effect.

Very sweet, Judy! You can’t go wrong with those beautiful colours, and stamps. I am stunned by the perfection of your cut, of the ribbon and card (flag end)!! (Mind you, I expect nothing less, my friend.) Glad you got some creating time on this wintery long weekend; it’s lovely to see your cards on here. Christine xx
Lovely Judy! I am loving Basic Gray as well. My fave neutral colour atm.
I just looked through your blog, you do beautiful work, will have to ‘bookmark’ you! I only dream of making cards like this one day,
Fiona
