MOJO316 - u r my SUNSHINE!

Studio Calico kits.  I love it when I can mix a current kit with items from past kits.  The paper & ribbon are from Studio Calico's Antiquary card kit.   The chipboard sentiment and the orange speech bubble (!!) are from past kits.  The flags, I cut with Verve's Flag It die set; I purchased that with my Verve gift certificate I won during DTGD!  That is one of my favorite dies.  Love it! 
 

The sketch is from Mojo Monday (MOJO316).  This is my first time playing in Mojo Monday! 

I love the colors, the sketch...the fact I could use and combine current & past kit items AND use a prize I won! 

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a moo'valous day!

VERVE Happiness

I participated in the week long stamp boot camp...I mean the annual Dare to Get Dirty 2013 for the Fan Club members over on SplitCoastStampers!  I won a prize.  Actually, I won TWO prizes.  One was an extension of my Fan Club membership.  The second was a VERVE gift certificate.  I was a VERVE virgin.  Was. 

It took me a week or so to decide what to get.  VERVE is totally different from any other stamps I have.  That's not bad.  That's expanding ya horizons.  Gettin' outta ya box.  Stuff like that.  Along the way, I found a stamp or two or three that reflect my philosophy on life.  Things like "life is a journey, not a destination."  I think I need that made into a stamp.  I digress.

I found this:  "Happiness is found along the way - not at the end of the road."  Sol Gordon.  Perfect. 

I used this week's SCS sketch, flipped; more SC Marks & Co plus stash!  I love the boldness of the orange...and the seafoam green.  I made a PL card; I believe I'm gonna use this as a reminder / motivator for myself...tack it up in a place where I will see it and remember. 

Let me show you how my order arrived. 
Um...HELLO, sparkles!
The invoice is on the inside of this folded card! 
My PRIZE!  These were the items I selected.
 Let me show you what I made again.  ;-)


Thanks for stopping by!  Have a moo'valous day!
