Mojo Monday Card (and box)

I am feeling a little lack of mojo these days - so what better way to find it than with the weekly Mojo Monday challenge?!

Mojo Monday provides a sketch to work from:

And here is my take on it:

 I used the Pathfinding paper kit - I love the autumn colours. 

 I also used the "Thanksgiving Wreath"  (B1454) stamp set for the sentiment.

After the card was made I thought a little gift box to go with it might be fun:

The box and leaves were cut with the Cricut and the Art Philosophy and Artiste cartridges.  

Quick, easy and a fun hostess or thank you gift!

Check out all the great sketches at Mojo Monday and get your Mojo going!!

Happy Day everyone!

Feels like Fall!

With the end of our extended summer now in sight, it finally feels like fall!  I love the fall - my favourite season - cosy sweaters, turning leaves, and of course all those yummy autumn colours!  To celebrate the season, I created some layouts using the beautiful Pathfinding paper pack from the new Annual Inspirations Idea Book!  LOVE the colours and designs, and the coordinating cardstock - the Workshop on the Go kit has everything you need to create two beautiful layouts ( and more), including a stamp set, cutting guide and instructions! 

Here is what comes in your WOTG kit for only $32.95 ( plus shipping):

6 – 12" × 12" B&T Duos™ Papers (2 each of 3 double-sided designs) 

6 – 12" × 12" Cardstock Sheets (2 Champagne, 2 Chocolate, 1 Autumn Terracotta, 1 Olive)

1 – My Acrylix™ Pathfinding Workshop Stamp Set (D-size)

3 – Cardstock Sheets (2 Colonial White, 1 Goldrush)

1 – Pathfinding Assortment (Z3012)

1 – Bling Gems Gold Assortment (Z2023)

1 – Instructional Brochure

Featured Colors: Autumn Terracotta, Chocolate, Goldrush, Olive

I opted to add a piece of embossed cardstock, make some Cricut cuts,  modify it  and create  two of my own layouts:

And this one:

I still had of plenty of "leftovers" for an additional one page layout and some cards!  And I love the little cork embellishments and gold bling dots!  SO much fall fun!  If you want to order your own Workshop on the Go and create some beautiful layouts without a lot of hassle - check it out here!

There is also a great card making kit with this line, along with several other WOTG choices!  Stay tuned for more fun layouts, cards and papercrafting projects in the days ahead!

Happy Day everyone!
