Mojo and Colour Q Make Peace On Earth

Looking for the December Stamp of the Month?  You can get right to it HERE.

The ColourQ Challenge this week is cool Blue hues!   I used Close To My Heart blues - Outdoor Denim, Twilight and Crystal Blue along with Bamboo.   I used the Mojo Monday sketch for this card.


I used the stamp Glory To God (D1483).  Since I wasn't using any pattern paper, I felt like I needed to 'dress' up my cardstock.  So I used the little town of Bethlehem to stamp across the Twilight piece.    I used the star to random stamp on to the Crystal Blue.  I used Natural Hemp (Z280) and a Wooden Designer Button (Z1387) for my accent



Be sure to check out the other artwork over at ColourQ and Mojo Monday!

Now, I want to share with a cute way to make a gift card holder!  I used the Artiste Cricut Cartridge to make this holder.  It was very simple!  The Cricut cuts the card and it folds so that you can slip a gift card inside! I set the cricut to cut at 5".  I recycled an old gift card so my card is a little thick. This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measurement to 2".               To re
