Mojo Monday #500 and Gerda Steiner Challenge

Tonight I am sharing a card for a couple 

of challenges.

If you haven't heard, this will be the final

challenge for the Mojo Monday sketch.  :(

It is sad, but yet I completely understand 

that Julee needs to devote more time to her

sweet family which includes twin boys.  

That takes a lot of energy and faith!

I LOVE sketch challenges and the weekly

inspiration from Julee will be missed.

I also recently discovered the Gerda Steiner

"Share your Designs" challenge. 

Long story short -

I've seen the Gerda Steiner digital scooter image

out on blogland

AND finally purchased it recently.

Is this adorable or what??

It's called Dog on Scooter Vrooming by. 

The image was printed onto Stampin' Up!

Whisper White cardstock and colored with

Copic Markers.  Designer papers are from 

American Crafts Happy Traveler.

A machine stitched border completes 

the card.   I receive a lot of comments 

regarding the machine stitching that I 

include on my projects.  I have a background

in sewing and own a full size Brother 

sewing machine which sits on the floor

under my craft table.  

When I feel the need

to add stitching to my project I simply pull it out and stitch.

No special instructions, just a warning that 

this will dull your needle.  If you need to use the

machine for fabric projects a sharp needle will be needed.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I don't recognize my followers often enough,

but I certainly appreciate you.  :-)
