Hello Mojo Monday 191

It's been a while since I participated in a card making challenge.  It's a long weekend in Canada and I told myself that, if ever I will find the time to participate, it is this weekend.  So, here is my entry for the Mojo Monday Sketch challenge 191 - submitted JUST under the wire before tomorrow's new sketch comes out.


This is the sketch from Mojo Monday's blog.  This sketch site is one of my favourites.  Their sketches are very clear to see and their design team is great at turning and flipping sketches so you can see it from all angles.  I turned mine to a portrait orientation with the ribbon strip at the bottom and I left out the square.  My ribbon strip is just a paper strip though.


This is another image from A Day for Daisies digital stamps on Etsy.  I had mentioned the story-telling quality of her images before and she has since released a Snow White and Cinderalla-esque set of digital images.  (So lovely!)  You can check out more on her blog, if you like.

I coloured my fairy with Copic markers, blending a red and yellow for the wings.  I also used a sparkle gel pen to colour the orange flowers in her dress, but it doesn't show up well in the photo.  The shading in the hair (hardly visible in the photo), was done by blending a Copic marker and a Promarker since I don't have two yellows in Copics.

In closing, hooray for Mojo Monday helping me to keep my Mojo flowing!
