On the Mend and a late Mojo Monday Mothers Day Card

This has been a really tough week. First had a terrible flu for 48 hours. chills, temp, nausea, sore throat...Really the whammy of all flu bugs. Then just my luck it turns into a brutal cold. and to top it off a double eye infection. Well today is the first day that I felt remotely human again. I have a voice and can kinda see lol. So while the household were all down taking a nap, I decided to try my luck at some time in the craft room. Gotta love creating with constant watering eyes, But I just couldn't stay away any longer. I am really not in love with the card, but I got back into the swing of things and hopefully will have my creative MOJO back very soon. Here is something to share with you for now though. Hope you like it.

This card fills the Mojo Monday 81 sketch, as well as Caardvarks-fantasy challenge and Flutterby #52. On with the show

This is one of my favorite stamp sets from About Art Accents called Anita Louise Musette 3 Silhouettes Plate. These silhouettes remind me of the paper mobiles my mom has in her home. Very European. I did a few techniques on the card. Something I call self brayering where I use my finger instead of the brayer lol.

The mojo has left the building

Hello Everyone. Hope you had a fantastic weekend. My husband kidnapped me this weekend and took me away for a relaxing few days sans children. After getting back I've gotten a wee bit sick, so thought I would share something with you all that I made a little bit ago. Do you find with being under the weather, that your Mojo flies out the window?

Well here it is. I hope you all enjoy.
