Sweet Mojo Bird
I had the chance to play with a new stamp and some papers yesterday! The Mojo Monday sketch worked perfectly for an idea I had!
Some of the new items are papers from the Claire paper pack and the lovely bird stamp is called Fabulous You. Some old favorites are kraft cardstock and color-ready seam binding inked in sky blue.

Merry & Bright
I wanted to share some clean and simple Christmas cards I made using up some scraps I've collected throughout the year! I've been doing this quite a bit lately hoping to empty my scraps bag before the new year!
I am entering these cards in the Heart 2 Heart Christmas challenge since they will not be posting a new challenge this week with the Holiday and all! Also, I was super excited to see that my "glitter" card was chosen in November's top ten, check it out here. Woo~hoo!!
Rainbow colors were a big trend this year! Why not incorporate that in Christmas cards, it makes them so bright and cheery. My cards were also inspired by a photo greeting card I received by one of my customers. Her beautiful family dressed in black & white in front of bright colorful panels and the sentiment "Happy Joyful Twenty Twelve Merry & Bright" in rainbow colors. It was so cute and different! {Thanks for the inspiration Nikki!}

Inspired Birdie #16
There was a very unique photo for inspiration on the Inspired By Blog this week. Since it's "embossing" week at Heart 2 Heart, I also decided to do some more embossing on my card.
I figured this bird would be great to emboss and the chalks would fill it in beautifully. I was inspired to add a bird to my project, because I am keeping an eye on two grey doves in my backyard. As we were trimming the palm leaves a couple weekends ago I noticed the nest and two little eggs inside. We left a few palm leaves to protect them. They hatched last week and momma bird is taking care of them. My beagle knows there is something up in the tree and will bark repeatedly at the momma bird when she sits on the nearby fence. I continue to bring my dog back inside and give the birds some peace and quiet!
