Mojo Wednesday

Yayyyy.. I finally got my mind working again and sat down to make some cards... I tried using the Mojo Monday sketch for this one... Really liked the sketch....Take a look at the sketch first and then will show you my card...

This sketch really caught my eye and was itching to give it a try...

Here is my take on the sketch...

I like the way the card has come out.. I was kind of doubtful of ti when I began working on it but the colours just kind of jumped on me.. What say you guys to it... Take a close up look of the center...

This card is for a friend whose come down to Kolkata.. She'll kill me if I do not give her a friendship day card.. I did post one for her but she is yet to reach it.. Stupid India Post people...

Supplies used:
A pale yellow Fabriano Elle Erre card stock layered with black fabriano elle erre (it was a leftover scrap).. The PP's were a birthday RAK from Ash.. I have done some recycling on it.. Used old wedding cards to layer both the PP's... The die cut has been traced out and hand cut.. The circle is made using another circle cut-out.. and the sentiment is from Erum's blog.. I coloured the O and glossed it up using glue and gloss. I have used Pie Lane glitter balls along the edge of the black circle.. Did some distressing and those red gem stones are from my stash and so are the white gem stones on the right hand border.. have done some faux stitching.. and those banners are hand cut.. :D

FLIPPED

Yee Hawww.. Don't mind me.. Was just watching the cowboys Vs Aliens Trailer.. Doesn't Daniel Craig look HOT.. * Drooling *...

Anyways.. Today I made a foray back into crafting and it took me the entire day to complete the card.. surprises surprises.. The reason being.. I made the same thrice... The first time I missed a step and the paper went waste * 'dang it*.. The second time I did everything correct and was jumping with joy BUT it wasn't to be so.. I managed to stick it wrong.. * double dang it*.. Finally I made it correctly at the third attempt and am rather proud of myself.. * pat pat*..

I made a circle flip up book for the very first time.. There are lot of tutorials on the web.. Just google it.. It looks complicated but is rather easy to make.. I had a ball making it...

Warning: Loaded with pictures...

Let's have a look at it....

  This is how the flip books looks when it is tied... I cut the circle using the side plates of my dinner set :D.. Since I don;t have a circle cutter.. I make do with what I have.. Psstt Karuna you listening right... :D

This is how it looks when it is tied up... ( there in the background you can see my jeans.. IGNORE) concentrate here.... These are the first and the last panels....

Now the middle two panels...

 Now let me show you the close up of each panel.. I'll speak of the supplies as we go because it used a lot of my supplies... PHEW..

PANEL 1:

 Well the supplies for this panel are:
Card Stock=> Fabriano Elle Ere
PP=> Hobby Ideas, DCW
Embellishment=> Echo park spring time stickers, Pie Lane heart stockers, Petaloo flowers which I had won in a giveaway and I have put brads for centres which again I had won in Holley's giveaway)
Those lovely words you see are a text sheet from squigglefly.. I cut them and out them in as adjectives..

PANEL 2:

This panel has Fabriano Elle Erre as card stock, Studio Calico and the DPs from the ICR Swap by Ash, The stockers are from Echo park Spring time and the flowers with brads are petaloo and from Holley's swap respectively...

Friendship- Nothing better than it...

Before I start my usual rambling.. Just wanted to thank my cousin who has very patiently sat and cut the image for me.. The shoulder seems to hurt more than usual so she's cut the image and re-sized the papers for me.. rest is all my work.. :D Including the painting.. it took me soo long to paint this image...

Anyways first take a look at the card and then we'd do some talking about it..

This is a tag in a box card.. I had found the tutorial somewhere and had the instructions written.. So in case anyone wants it.. shoot a mail.. will send it over to you...In reality the tag inside the box is supposed to be hinged through a brad.. but since I don't have any at the moment.. I stuck it...so the tag you can see.. I have pulled it out.. I have left it blank to write whatever I have to...

Close up now...

 I had a lot of fun making this card.. I like trying different folds.. Somehow normal single folds don;t appeal to me...

Anyways here are the supplies used:
Cardstock => Fabriano Elle Erre
DP=> Studio Calico
Digi Image=>Anne Bodil
Sentiment=> Our very Own Erum from Vibgyor Crafts
Bling from Pie Lane (Ofcourse)
Fiskars sun burst punch
Ribbon locally brought

The card is made especially for my guru's, i.e. Anita's anniversary challenge wherein we had to make a card for a blogger friend.. My card is for Karuna a.k.a Crafting queen
