Unusual Halloween Colors!

When I got up today I knew I was going to combine the Midnight Madness Sketch with the Color Challenge on SCS (real red, kraft, chocolate chip) and I was also determined to use this digital image from Mo's Digital Pencil. So with all those restrictions, lol, I think it turned out pretty stinkin cute--IMHO! Isn't this witch just adorable. I love her.

Stamps: Haunting Halloween, and digital image from Mo's Digital Pencil

Paper: Real Red, Kraft, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Misc retired dp

Ink: Chocolate chip

Accessories: , Copics, large oval punch, scallop oval punch

Blue Christmas!

Today's card is for the color challenge on SCS. Fun one today you had to use two colors and one of them had to be the bleached out result of the first color--you could then add a neutral if you choose. I also combined it with the new Midnight Madness Challenge. Come on and play along, it makes you house smell so clean!

Here is the sketch for the week on the Midnight Madness blog

Inspiration Midnight Madness Style

Yea, I was able to combine two challenges once again. The inspiration challenge on SCS was to use this site and pick a vase as our inspiration.

There are lots of fun vases on Bellacor, Please keep your inspiration limited to the vases (there are 1,564 to choose from, so I don’t think you’ll have trouble finding something that inspires you).

And I combined it with the sketch challenge at Midnight Madness.

I turned the sketch on its side.

This is the vase that I chose

It's a Patriotic card, no its a Congratulations card no it's a Baby card.....

Did you ever have one of those cards that just keeps doing what ever IT wants. I know it sounds crazy by I really think this card is possessed! It took on a life of it's own no matter what I did -- I am not sure I created it, lol. It is not at all what I had in mind and the theme changed so many times I was confused! Anyway I told you I was going to play along with this new sketch challenge and so I did--I think.... I am feeling very MoJo less today. I still have not even worked on my own sketch challenge for tomorrow morning (actually tonight) but I did get this one done. Got to start some where right?

Here is the sketch, hop on over the the Midnight Madness blog for more inspiration with it.


And here is that card with a mind of it's own, scarry!

I am way behind schedule it is already 7:12 and I have at least two or three more cards to make and need to get my little guy in the shower. If you have questions please ask and I will get back to you. Remember blogger don't have the POWER to reply so leave an e-mail.

Happy today!
Mary Jo
