First Challenge Card!

I am finally entering my first challenge! I absolutely love all of the sketches over at Mojo Monday and this week I created a card to enter in their weekly challenge. Here's the sketch: 




And here's what I came up with:





I was just dying to use bold, bright colors, and I thought a birthday card for a toddler would be perfect. Here's what I used to make the card:


- White, red, blue, green and yellow cardstock
- Cuttlebug
- Polka dot embossing folder
- Present die cut
- White buttons
- iRock with white gems
- Yellow chipboard tag and black chipboard '3'
- 'You're' stamp in black ink


If you're ever in need of some inspiration, Mojo Monday has card sketches from the past three years to get you started. Whenever I suffer from "crafter's block," as I call it, I always rely on Mojo Monday. Each week they post a new sketch for their challenge and there's one winner for every 50 entries, I believe. Give it a try if you haven't already! :)


I'm off to go enter the challenge now, have a great night!
