MOJO Monday/ MOJO#306 "Shabby Card"

Wow I haven't played along in a long while so I decided last night while gazing upon Marion Smith's new digital printables "Scarlet" which you can find at www.marionsmithdesigns.com

a card was a must to create and little shabby and pink!

So along with the digital prints and a Die~Namites Die "Bamboo Sticks" (www.die~namites.com).

I started adding gesso/stucco with mask design...Distressing all the edges and white washing all the papers...to give a softness to the papers for the card.

I didn't have a scallop punch available big enough for what I needed I turned to my CTMH Cricut Art Philosopy and Artiste Cartridges...added a pretty little Prima flower and leaves....sprayed a fine mist of Perfect Pearls Mists: blue patina!!!

Here are some close ups of the digital papers and die-bamboo sticks....just love all the texture!

Thanks for stopping in today be sure to stop over to the MoJo Monday Blog at http://mojomonday.blogspot.com
