Missing Mojo Monday - Jar of Love

It's Monday and so I thought we should have one more Missing Mojo post. Today I have my last tip on how to work through your creative block.

Now last time I talked about using our catalogues to look for inspiration and today I wanted to bring your attention to a little, probably unknown website called Pinterest!! Ok so that is a little tongue in cheek as I think everyone on the planet has at least heard of Pinterest, if not have there own boards. This website really has changed the way crafters, especially, interact and you can find inspiration for everything and anything.

So today I wanted to share a card that I CASED from pinterest. The original designer of the card is Ruby from Love2BeCreative, and I just loved her use of colours and design. You can see Ruby's amazing card HERE and here is my CASE:


Now even though I had planned to straight out CASE Ruby's design, I still ended up changing mine up a little. I changed my orientation from portrait to landscape, plus I decided to use a different sentiment too.

I guess that's the great thing about CASEing a card. Even when you plan to simply copy, you still add a little of your own personality to it!!

So, that's it for my Mojo Monday's. I really hope I gave you a few handful hints and tips, that will kick start your missing mojo. I know it has certainly helped find mine creativity again!!

Happy Crafting,
Chlo

Just Add Ink #359 Inspirations Challenge - Just Add Text

Cheers to another Friday and here's to my official week on the DT for the Just Add Ink crew. This weeks inspirational photo is fabulous. I bet your guys are going to go crazy over this one:

I actually didn't go down the flower avenue, which I'm sure lots of you will. I was a bit caught up on the leafy looking petals and the colours and that's exactly what stands out in my card.


I've used a few new stamp sets with a few retiring embellishments. I'm still in mourning over blushing bride sequins and so I plan to use them as much as possible. And they are still available so go and grab them while you can!!

I also paired up a new in-colour with an oldie but goodie. I stamped the leave background in our new Berry Burst, which is such a rich, deep colour, that I actually had to stamp it off three times before stamping it all over the background. With this colour you can get about 6 good colours out of it, by stamping off and off and off !! Pairing it with some Blushing Bride embellishments balanced it out beautifully.

So now it's over to you. Will you go down the flower route or will you mix it up and make something out of the box. I for one can't wait to see what you all come up with!!

Happy Crafting,
Chlo
