When I first looked at this card, it just didn’t look right to me.  We get so used to putting a border around everything that we expect one to be there – ALL THE TIME!

But it doesn’t have to be there all the time!

I’m here to keep Ann from getting in a rut.  Doing the same thing all the time is not going to stretch your creative muscle.

So, there’s no border on the Marina Mist and there’s no border around the card.  But that’s okay.  We’ve got other interesting things going on with this card.

Like how we used the limited edition Eastern Elegance Premiere Bundle to make a sunflower!

Mojo Monday Thank You Card

Do you see how we layered two 2″ circles together for more depth in the Early Espresso?

And yellow isn’t even close to Ann’s favorite color – unless it makes you happy.  (NOTE:  The yellow in the picture below is more accurate than the close up above.  It’s So Saffron.)

Mojo Thank You Card Idea

Since we’re all sold out of rhinestones and pearls, Ann used one of the thinlet shapes to make centers in the blue flower background.

You sure do get a lot in the Premiere Bundle and it’s only available this month!

We also used a couple cool things that are available while supplies last because they’re on the retirement list – and they’re both on sale!

 

Card Making Tips

  • We only used the stamp set and the coordinating thinlets for this card.
  • What colors did we use?
    • So Saffron
    • Early Espresso
    • Crumb Cake ink (for the petals because Early Espresso was too dark)
