Mojo Monday 276

Two posts in one day?  Yep - catching up!  This post is for Mojo Monday 276.  Sorry for the distortion.. I really have to work on taking better photos!  This card is also going in a collection I'm making for a silent auction.  The cream, brown, teal, and purple card stock is from Michael's, the patterned paper from my mom, and the love on burlap is from a wedding favor bag.  I thought it was so cute!  The brads are from a friend.  My sis has been helping me with my watermark.  It's got a see-through background now, but I'm not so good at sizing it yet!  <3 JEM

Birthdays, Birthdays!

Oh my goodness - I totally forgot to post these cards from back in December!  So here they are.  This first card was for hubby's aunt.  All the card stock is from Michael's.  The doily is from my mom, as well as the ink and ribbon.  The pearls, brad, stamps, and punches are all Stampin' Up.

This card was for my only male cousin.  The brown card stock is from our wedding photo display, the yellow from my mom, and the blue is recycled from a card I received last year.  The punch and stamp are Stampin' Up, and the ink was mine.

Here's the inside!

 

These next two cards were made at Stamp Club this past December.  I'm a huge fan of the embossing folders that Stampin' Up has.  Apparently I was having issues keeping things straight that evening!

Hope you enjoy!  <3 JEM

Family Birthdays

Hello everybody!  We finally have our computer back (it needed a new hard drive) so I can finally post some cards!  This one was for my Oma.  The white cardstock is from a friend, the patterned paper from Michael's and Stampin' Up, the yellow from my mom, the ink and punch from Stampin' Up, and the stamps from I don't know where!

This card was for my uncle - they have the same birthday!   The brown cardstock is from Michael's, the gold and purple paper from my mom, and the two green and light beige(?) were mine.  The brads were from a friend, the ink from my mom, and the stamps were mine.  They both liked their cards very much!  I was hoping to get to some more card challenges this week, but without a computer it was hard to.  I've also got a super busy week that includes making 12 giant-sized cards for a missions weekend at our church next weekend.  Hopefully they all turn out - I'll be sure to share!  Have a good week! <3 JEM

Mojo Monday 274

Happy New Year everyone!  I can't believe it's 2013 already - time goes so much faster the older you get (except when waiting for Christmas - that still seems to take forever)!  Anyway, I started following a blog that has weekly card making challenges, and this is my first submission!  I'm excited for this card.. I think it's really cute ;)  It's for one of my hubby's relatives who loves Hello Kitty.  The white card stock is from Michael's, and all other card stock is from a wonderful friend that I miss dearly.  The ribbon is from a Christmas gift I received this year, the flower brad is Stampin' Up, and the blue brads are from my mom.  The stamp is also Stampin' Up (from my mom).  I purchased Hello Kitty in 1998 on an exchange to Japan that I participated in.  I hope she likes her card!! <3 JEM

Christmas!!!

Guess who got spoiled??  This chick!  And I'm soooo excited!!  This is my Stampin' Up Christmas haul :) A Big Shot, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Bone Folder, Embossing Folder, Ribbon, a punch, awesome paper, and lotsa stamps!  Thank you hubby and MIL!!! <3 JEM

Christmas Order

Good evening everyone!  These cards were for an order I received.  I threw the last one in as a thank-you :)  This card has some fuzzy red velvet paper I purchased at Michael's (well as the white card stock that serves as the body of this card).  All other paper was scrap.  The stamps, punches, and ink are Stampin' Up, and the embossing powder is from a friend.

This is one of the cards we made at Stamp Club - therefore, everything you see is from Stampin' Up.  This card partly taught us about embossing paper.

I love this card!  All paper is from Michael's.  The stamps, ink, punches, brad, and pearls are from Stampin' Up.

The order requested a card with an owl, so here it is!  All paper here is from Michael's, and the stamps, punches, and ink are from Stampin' Up.  The ribbon is from my mom, and the glitter glue is from a friend.

This card uses some pre-embossed paper from Michael's that I think is so pretty!  The ink, stamps, and punch are from Stampin' Up, and the ribbon is from a friend.

This is another card we made at Stamp Club.  The snowflakes use white ink and embossing powder to make them really pop.

And this little card was made when I picked up one of my Stamp Club orders.  I just thought it was really cute!  Hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!  <3 JEM

November Birthdays

Hello everyone!  These are some cards I sent to family in November.  The color family for all of them is pretty much the same.  All of the main body cardstock is from our wedding photo display.  This card was for one of my hubby's grandmothers.  The plaid ribbon and translucent paper is from a friend, and the white and darker blue paper is from Michael's.  The pearls and punches are from Stampin' Up and the stamps and ink are mine.

This card was for hubby's other grandmother.  The leopard print paper is from a bag I received, and the white and tan paper is from Michael's.  The pearls and punches are from Stampin' Up, and the stamps and ink are mine.

This card was for hubby's grandfather.  The circle paper is from an Iris bag when I purchased my new sunglasses!  The tan paper is from Michael's, the little brads are from a friend, the large brad, punch and stamps are from Stampin' Up, and the ink is mine.

This last card was for my Aunt's birthday.  I used more of the circle paper from the Iris bag, and the circle punch and glitter is from a friend.  The border punch and stamps are from Stampin' Up, and the ink is mine.  Which one is your favorite?  <3 JEM
