Mojo missing...............if found please return a.s.a.p.
Oh my goodness, it's hard going no inspiration and Mr Mojo nowhere to be found. Last night I must have spent an hour looking at a collection of lovely new stamps from Teresa at Crafts and Me and nothing gelled. As they were all fairies something is definitely not right.
But before I launch into my cards, I want to say a big thank you to Bee Crafty for selecting me as their winner last week, this is a fairly new challenge so do check it out, they have a super sketch this week and fab prizes. And also the girls at Creative Cottage who selected the card I made for my Grandson as one of their Top 3.
So here are my meagre offerings from a Mojoless craft room. The fairy on the card above is Sweet Pea Hiding, equally as lovely as all the others and I just feel I have not done her justice. She is coloured with Copics and her wings decoupaged and glittered. The DP is Magnolia, Martha Stewart punched snowflakes, ribbon and a flower. This is for the following challenges:
Crafts and Me - Dreaming of a White Christmas - snowflakes
Creative Cottage - Untraditional Christmas
Charisma Cardz - One for the girls
Ladybug - Sketch
My next card, also one of last evenings efforts, uses Hero Arts F5075 Sparkle Poinsettia, inked with Tim Holtz dusky concord and bundled sage and spritzed with water before stamping. The DP is My Minds Eye and the flower is mounted onto a 'doily' cut using the Magnolia die - this is a half circle and takes a bit of getting used to lining up, but once mastered worth the effort as it is so pretty. I tend to cut several at a time once I get the technique going. Some adorable lace which was part of a prize and a single flower and pearls to embellish. This is for the following challenges:
My final card is a Stampalot sample which I shall be delivering tomorrow.........I have prepared instruction sheets for making a tri fold card which will be available at their Third Ultimate Rubber Stamping Day on 4th December 10am through 4pm with free eats and drinks all day. I will also pop the instructions on my blog shortly.
I masked a piece of cardstock to create a moon by sponging distress inks, then stamped Art Impression U1562 Rooftops which I coloured with TH ink and added a liberal amount of glitter to the rooftops. Through the moon I stamped Magenta 02045-6 Santa......this is a silhouette wood mounted stamp and if you go looking for it you will see the actual image is straight, but I 're-assembled' it to curve the sleigh. The DP is October Afternoon and he snowflakes a Martha Stewart punch. This card is for the following challenges:
Scrapbook Sisters - Let it Snow
Simon Says - Let it Snow
ABC - I is for Ice and Snow
Moving Along with the Times - More than one fold

I think your Mojo was just lurking under the desk Brenda and came out when you weren't looking lol - these are fabulous! Congratulations on your win and Top 3 too - well deserved!
Love Lynda xxx
Oh,my...these are adorable!!Amazing papers!I love the last one,gorgeous!
Have a wonderful day :)
Hugs,Kari :)
I don't have a favourite today as all three are as equally as gorgeous. It looks to me like your mo-jo is still there, but maybe it just needs a nice cup of tea and a biscuit and a trip round blogland for some inspiration.
I must say though, I love the tri-fold card and a great touch bending your santas sleigh. Looking forward to the instuctions as I haven't tried one before.
Happy crafting

I'd love to be as productive as you are on a mojoless day! Thanks for joining in Ladybug Crafts Ink challenge. I love your sparkly silver ribbon and the lace on the second card!
i wish i'll loose my mojo if that brings as much talented and fabulous art pieces as you've done.
(lol) And my 12 point goes to the number...3.

For someone whose lost their mojo, these are pretty stunning cards, Brenda.
I love them all, especially the last one and many congrats on your win.
Has the snow reached you yet, we've had showers all day but nothing settling although it's not too far away looking at the news.

Brenda without mojo? It would be like, oh, a sky without stars, a forest without trees, a bird without a song; in other words - impossible! On the evidence here today, your mojo hasn't gone missing, it must just have fancied being incognito for a while. I like the tri-shutter card especially, love the soft colours. xx
Beautiful cards Brenda, I adore the lace.
Wow - to be that great with no mojo! Go you!
Love all your "mojoless offerings"!....love the colours!

You're too hard on yourself - you've obviously got the talent - not your mojo. Three fab cards but the last one does it most for me. Absolutely fabulous. The style you always do so well.
