March 2012 Viva La Verve - Week 4

Hi folks,

well, I did spend a few more hours in the craft room this afternoon and did my cards for the Week 4 Sketch for the March Viva La Verve Challenge.

The last sketch for the month is a CAS sketch:



And since I had not yet made my ten Christmas cards for March, I made Christmas cards! I made them all look a little different by switching up the papers, stamps, die cuts and orientation.










And three where I flipped the sketch to landscape:





card details:

Mojo 230 - getting Christmas-y!

hi folks,

I'm back....and just in time to do my ten Christmas cards for February before the month ends. Thank goodness it is a leap year - btw - happy birthday to my Uncle Hans!! It's his birthday today....

anyways, I used this week's Mojo Monday sketch 230 for all ten cards - though I did switch it up a bit on a few of them.

This week over at Mojo Monday it's actually a choice of round or square for your card....




I went with square...

Sorry this first photo is blurry - not sure what happened....
