Sketch 172 - Mojo Sunday?


Here's my submission for this week's Mojo Monday challenge.  Yes, I realize it's Sunday.  However, this card has been sitting in my studio in various forms since Monday so doesn't that count?

I used paper from the DCWV Once Upon A Time Mat Stack and paired that with PTI's Fine Linen which has quickly become one of my favorite "go to" neutrals.  I embossed a piece of Cream cardstock with one of the new Tim Holtz Sizzix folders and then distressed the edges and inked them with a combination of Antique Linen and Vintage Photo distress inks.  I then lightly stamped the text image from an Inkadinkado stamp in CTMH Bambo ink ontop.  The flower is from my stash and may be a Prima but I am not positive.

This is not my usual card style which is why I think it took me so long to create.  I may have been overthinking things a little but I have to say I am very pleased with the outcome.
