Mojo Monday #295!

Hello! This week I decided to play along in Mojo Monday Challenge #295! I made a card for last week's challenge, but completely forgot to post it. So, this is technically my second time playing, but my first linking up!



I decided to do the round card sketch and came up with this:

















As you can see, I omitted the diamond because my image was too big (I hope that is okay!). The card base was made by overlapping the die on a piece of folded cardstock and then cutting a full circle with the same die.

Supplies

Paper: Kraft (Recollections); White (Georgia-Pacific); Vellum (The Paper Studio)
Patterned Paper: This & That Graceful 6x6 (Echo Park); The Sweetest Thing Tangerine (My Mind's Eye)

Markers: Creamy Caramel (Stampin' Up)

Moxie Fab World Gift Packaging Challenge

Hello! After playing along in a few other Moxie Fab Challenges, I decided to try out the Gift Packaging Challenge! This one was definitely a challenge as I don't normally make boxes. The finished size is 4 in.x 4 in.x 2 in.



The box closes with Velcro flaps at 3 different points. I decided to fill the box with Hershey Kisses because if I were to receive that much, there would definitely be blue skies for me!

Supplies

Paper: Kraft (Recollections); White (Georgia-Pacific); Baja Breeze (Stampin' Up)
Stamps: Blue Skies, And a Partridge (Lawn Fawn)
Ink: Chestnut Roan (Colorbox); Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko)
Markers: Bermuda Bay (Stampin' Up)
Punches: Stampin' Up and Marvy
Other: Heavy Duty Velcro

Moxie Fab Gift Card Holder Challenge

Hello! After playing along in Moxie Fab World's Tag Challenge, I decided I should play along in the The Gift Card Holder Challenge as well. This card took a LONG time to create because I didn't have a clear vision of what I wanted. But, I am in love with the end result:


I made the gift card holder by cutting a piece of cardstock to the size of the gift card (2.25in. x 3.5in.)
and then cutting a piece of patterned paper to 3.25in. x 4in. and scoring at 1/2in on both sides and at the bottom. Next, I punched a circle out on the top to make it easier to pull the gift card out. Finally, I folded and adhered the patterned paper to the cardstock.

Supplies
Paper: Kraft (Recollections); White (Georgia Pacific)
Patterned Paper: This 7 That graceful 6x6 (Echo Park); Polka Dots from my stash
Stamps: Jessie's ABCs, Blue Skies (Lawn Fawn)
Ink: Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko); Pik (Studio G)
Dies/Embossing Folders: Blue Skies Lawn Cuts (Lawn Fawn); So Trendy M-Bossibilities (Spellbinders)
Markers: Bermuda Bay, Close To Cocoa (Stampin' Up)
