How about a hand made Christmas card for the man in your life?
I think Little Present by Mo’s Digital Pencil will be perfect for him.
Coloured with Copic markers and looking very sultry for that special man, I used scrapbook papers from years past for this card and a few Christmas embellishment's from Stampin Up a laser cut wooden snowflake and a two toned sheer ribbon.
I used a half fold card for this one.
The theme for this month for the Just Inklined Blog Hop is Checks as in Squares chosen by our host this month who is Karen and that is where the Blog hop starts.
I used Zei Noodles digital Stamp for my card this month as it is perfect for a teenager card and lets face it that type of card just aint easy.
So you should have landed on my blog from Joyce
and remember to leave a comment on all of the blogs to be in for a chance of winning a spot prize.
I’ve had this coloured for a while but I found a fabulous paper in my stash that you would think I chose especially for the image (I didn’t) I coloured the image with promarkers and it sat on my desk for ages then whilst tidying my scrapbook papers and trying to find some sort of order to them this one popped out and I knew exactly where it was headed.
I made an easel card added a bit of lace and some pretty satin ribbon as a stopper.
Next up is Tammy and I know she will have something wonderful to show you all.

I think I found my MoJo!
Little elves Mim and Pipa by Mo’s Digital Pencil, coloured with Copic markers.
Little Mim Elf paper pieced the bauble and printed twice to decoupage her and added glitter stickles to the fur.
Little Pipa Elf again decoupaged, glittered and paper pieced.
I spent a wonderful day with Grandson Jack, I built Chuggington train set up and we played for hours.
Not one embellishment, no ribbon, or double sided tape, I didn’t even use a self adhesive pearl or Copic or Promarkers, cuttlebug sat feeling lonely alongside my designer papers, I didn’t even use a digi stamp, craft knife, scissors, glitter or a guillotine.
I did however use a sentiment.
So after an awful day (Thursday)I seemed to have lost my MoJo, have you got it?
I thought it would be nice to show you some more of my holiday snaps from the Lake District I thought I’d best show the first in a card form.
Climbing over Hardknot Pass
Breath-taking views
Quaint little bridge
Contemplating the jump
and of course searching for Chris at the station where we stopped for a cuppa.
Tomorrow I’m going to have some quality time with Grandson Jack, I’m hoping he will find the MoJo for me.
I haven’t a card made today because I’m nursing yet again another head cold “sniff” but I do have a bit of news.
Firstly 2 dates for your dairy 13th and 14th September I will be back on TV at Create and Craft I will give you more on the times later as these can change, I will be bringing Just Inklined into your living rooms to view so if you are working those days be prepared to set your recorders.
Secondly Just Inklined is heading for some changes one of them being PayPal so many of you have asked us to go with that method of payment that we have listened and it will soon be available for you.
Last but not least I will be demoing at Imag-e-nation Tyne & Wear this Saturday I’ll be demoing lots of craft tools including Tonic Studios so come along and have a play.
Big Girl Pants Digital Stamp by Mo’s Digital Pencil I fell in love with this image as soon as I saw it, such a cutie, we often see images with children dressing in their Mums clothes but it is generally dresses and so this one makes a refreshing change and is sure to bring a smile from ear to ear.
Just look at those spotty frillies, I kept to pastel shades with this one and the lavender designer papers seemed perfect for the job, inexpensive ones too by Craft Creations, I used a Labels nestablilites die from Spellbinders to cut out the image and coloured her ith Copic Markers. Ribbon, dainty dots and a stick pin to finish.
Success comes in many forms don’t you think?
On the Pot an image from Mo’s Digital pencil just seems to say it all ha ha.
Coloured with Copic Markers and I used the EK Success ribbon slot craft punch to add some detail, a checked designer paper some ribbon and buttons to finish.
I love frosted colours for Christmas, it makes such a change from the traditional colours.
The image I’m using today is called Sticky from Mo’s Digital Pencil. Coloured with Copic Sketch Markers mainly the BG colours then used frosted stickles by ranger to add some sparkle here and there.
I found this pretty designer paper while I was away but the perferation name strip at the bottom of the 12 x 12 scrapbook paper was missing so I haven’t a clue whick company made it but it has embossed puffed up snowflakes on it which have a bit of frosted glitter over them. I added some pearls to the centers. I used paper punches to cut out the circles from the paper and base card and added a snowflake in the gap using thread so that it will spin.
