On the telephone and a Birthday Doggy

Ohhh we've had the most beautiful dry and sunny weather here this past week or so, and still due for more next week!  In celebration I reckon my mojo has cleared off on his holidays ... isn't it funny how it's Mr Mojo causing the trouble and not Mrs Mojo! ;)

Anyway, this little girl was coloured in the garden, not too often I would be doing that!  Usually I need to do weeding or whatever, but for a change it was all done and tidied!

I popped her up on foam dots and added clear gloss to the telephone and her eyes and lips.

  • Layout from CAS(E) This Sketch #273
  • Colour theme from Your Next Stamp #90 - my base card wasn't an exact match but it's more peachy than the pinky shade it looks here.
  • Simon Says - inspired by a song - 'Hanging on the Telephone' by Blondie
And here's another CAS card, using my Tim Holtz doggy and MFT heart die.  I embossed a couple of lines to keep with the them of the sketch challenge and then added a few wee butterflies cut from the leftovers.
Dog popped up on foam pads and sparkle added to the butterflies.

Two lovely cards! Glad to hear you're having good weather. We've had huge storms here - last night the main road 'burst' open and there was a fountain in a lake. Amazing! Jo x
