Remember the song "Manic Monday" by the Bangles? That song popped into my head thinking about today's blog post title so I rolled with it. Hopefully, your Monday won't be "manic" and you'll find creative energy to stamp with this week's Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO211) by Julee Tilman.
Make your own photo corner element in seconds using a Stampin' Up! Square Punch . . .
. . . today's 1 Minute to "WOW" Video Tutorial shows you how.
- The stunning flower was inspired by one on this drawer box by Katy McGloin, a member of my Stampin' Pretty Pals.
- To create the flower, pop out six 1 3/4" Scallop Circles. Crunch, mist with water and assemble on a brad. Simple.
- Worried about how to send a card with that pretty flower without it getting crushed? Consider mailing this card on a well-cushioned trip in one of the Stampin' Up! Padded Envelopes (116911). My mother is visiting this weekend so she will get this hand delivered (another alternative for "big" 3-D) in a clear envelope (102619).
- Note the trés chic embossing details on the sentiment layer--courtesy of my Stampin' Up! Simply Scored Scoring Tool.
- My inspiration for the flower and color scheme are from the Grandin Road home décor catalog. That fun pillow caught my eye!
