Monday Challenges: Pollycraft Monday Sketch 51 & Mojo Monday Sketch 146

This is my first entry to Pollycraft Monday Challenge  and I so enjoyed working with this sketch. (Would also love to win - only chanced upon their blog and their digis are gorgeous!) Fat Boyardee. however,  is a digi I purchased from another recently discovered online store, Digi Shack - they too have sooooo many cute designs and at only a dollar an image, more than affordable. Love the chef and paired him with the Eiffel Tower from the new Stampin`Up set Artistic Etchings. This card also meets the challenge requirements here at Just Scraps. I doubled up the band across the bottom, used two images and two checked papers AND, believe it or not, the black & white checked paper was already on my desk, left over from a recent project. Had just enough paper to make two of these cards and have none of this paper left so will have to hit up my sister in the city. Some paper I like to keep around as `standards`- small checks and polka dots being a couple such.

The second card here is for the Mojo Monday challenge. I used papers from a K and C paper pack I recently purchased and they are gorgeous! The images are from a  Stampin Up set . I love the layout of this card and love the papers but there`s something I`m not quite satisfied with in the center there - the sentiment? ink color? Not sure so I`m going to try this one again later today.

After the wedding stuff . . .

It`s raining this morning and all of eight degrees - can you believe it! DH has just put a fire in the loft for me so pretty sure I`ll spend the day playing with paper! Have a great one!
