Paper Players and Mojo



I finally had just a moment to stamp and made a card for a neighbor of ours that has been on my to do list for way too long. I combined both the Paper Players challenge along with today's Mojo Monday challenge. The Paper Players color challenge is perfect for a masculine card (cherry cobbler, early espresso, not quite navy) and I am always inspired by the Mojo Monday sketches.

Hopefully, I get a few more chances to stamp. With 8th grade graduation, sports and other family commitments, my stamping closet has been neglected:(

Stamps - Happy Greetings
Ink - early espresso, cherry cobbler
Paper - early espresso, cherry cobbler, very vanilla, not quite navy card stock and Holly Jolly DSP
Accessories - dimensionals, early espresso satin ribbon, antique brads, not quite navy brad, cherry cobbler seam binding, square lattice embossing folder, texture plates #4

    Gorgeous card - I love the richness of the card. You really enhanced the NQN and CC panels with the EE sponging. The graduate will love the card!
