365 Cards and Mojo Monday

I think it is becoming obvious to any of you who have been coming by for a peek, that my style tends toward the simpler designs. Weird. Who would have thunk it. Not me. But here goes...
Mojo Monday is starting a new month of challenges. Here's the first challenge for April.

Mojo Monday 81 - sketch:


And here's my take on it. My first impression of the sketch was that it should open from the center. So mine does. I need some boy cards, so I left off the ribbon this go 'round.


365 Cards challenge for today was to alter a chipboard shape. I had just made the card above and had an idea. But, believe it or not, I don't have a 1" circle chipboard shape. So I made one using four cardstock circles. Just glued them together. Now I have two boy cards.








Side shot is just to show the "chipboard" circle a little more clearly.

Thanks for looking.

Wonderful work – a great colour scheme and justice made to the sketch. Such a cute frog too. I struggled with this week’s but you obviously didn’t!!!
