Monday Mojo # 445

This coming Saturday my grandson receives his 1st Holy Communion, an occasion requiring  a very special card.  Since we will be delivering it in person and I have a stash of square envelopes,  I thought I'd follow today's Mojo Monday square card sketch.

 

Green is Matt's favorite color.  It was actually surprising that I still had a sheet of green cardstock in my stash.  When he is here crafting, that is always the color he chooses. 

Note to self: Purchase more green cs.

The beautiful image is an Our Daily Bread Designs Stamp. The sentiment is a CTMH stamp.  Both are stamped with VersaMark and embossed with Sparkle n Sprinkle Glitsy Gold Embossing Powder.  On each side of the image is half of a rectangular die cut by ODBD.

The scalloped oval is a Spellbinders die cut.  The simple circle was cut on the Cricut using the CTMH Art Philosophy Cartridge.  

Here is a close up of the card,

so you can see the beautiful gold paper from Paper Temptress.

Did you miss me?

I spent all day Friday helping Joyce and Betty set up their Close to My Heart Booth at the Stamp Scrap Art Tour which opened at the Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, PA this morning.  If you couldn't make it there today, the show continues tomorrow.    My friend, Laurie, filled in for me at the Make and Take table today while I attended our grandson's 1st Communion service.  Thanks, girlfriend.  Here are the 2 fun cards she taught:

Isn't using washi tape for the cake layers a fun idea?

And here is the card I made for Nick for his special day today:

The wording on the card is mostly computer generated with the exception of the letters which I cut out on the cricut.  Designer papers are from the CTMH Avonlea paper pack.  The cross is a Recollections rhinestone sticker.
