Mojo Monday #76

There are so many great challenges out there that it's hard to keep up and play along with all of them. So, sometimes the easiest option is to combine a couple of challenges together. That's what I've done with this week's Mojo Monday sketch...I wanted to try this one and I also wanted to try this week's Colour Challenge on Splitcoast Stampers...CC208 Pink Chocolate Kiwi! The combo was so unusual (Pink Passion, Chocolate Chip & Kiwi Kiss) that I just had to see if I could make it work. Of course we don't have Kiwi Kiss here just yet, so Old Olive did a great job standing in. This is what I came up with:
Pretty wild huh? Please excuse the grass...the light was fading and I had to take this one outside :) This is not a card that you could just stick in an envelope to post...there are so many layers up on Dimensionals, not to mention that enormous bow, that it wouldn't fit in a normal envie. I'm going to have to send this one off in a padded bag!!!

Supplies:
Paper: Pink Passion, Old Olive & Choc Chip CS, Petals & Paisleys DSP
Ink: Chocolate Chip, VersaMark
Stamps: Priceless
Other: Old Olive brads, Olive American Crafts buttons, Chocolate polka dot organza ribbon (came in a Lime Tart kit & I can't find the manufacturer...sorry), Mat Pack & piercing tool, Dimensionals.


It's been a long day, so I'm off to veg in front of the TV,
Kristie

Great combination of colours and design. I especially love the added touch of the grass in the background. It really sets off the card.

Lovely! I, too, tend to combine challenges, and it's a challenge in itself!

About that bow - I often wonder (in general) at some people's creations, cuz how are you supposed to mail (post) the darn things!?!?!?! :-)

I like the bow, and for a special person, it would sooo be worth the bubble envelope!

yowza! gotta love a card that can multitask, right?! ;) especially one as ♥FAB♥ as this!

(ps: i sooooooooo hear ya on the subject of overly enthusiastically dimensional creations & padded mailers!!! yet another reason i never ever stress over cardsize and envies...chances are...that will NOT be the determining factor in my case!)
