Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge #95

Good morning!  I'm so glad Blogger finished its maintenance last night so I could get on here and share my card for this week's Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge.  I am having so much fun guest designing this month with the wonderful and talented ladies on the design team!  This week's theme was "anything but a card". 

Here is my project for the challenge:


I decided to make a little garden journal as a gift for a friend who loves to garden.  I started with a journal I picked up for $1 at Michael's awhile back.   I covered it with coordinating pattered paper from the Basic Grey Marrakech collection.  I added a few fun trims from the Webster's Pages Let's Celebrate Trim Card.  My Mo's image is Sadie and I colored her with Copic markers. That was it - a simple project that  hope my friend will like. I hope you like it, too!

Be sure to check out all the fabulous projects the design team has shared today!  And why not play along?  For the first two weeks of the month, you can throw your name in the hat to be a guest designer when you enter a card.  Trust me, it's lots of fun!  And you also have the chance to win a Mo's image just for playing along!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful day!

  7. I have been gone for 2 weeks.. I come back to find you are guest designing.. I am so bummed I took this month off from my dt because designing next to you would be a highlight. I miss you already. This is a wonderful journal. Hope you are unpacked and settling in. Your move certainly has done nothing to your mojo..hugs.

  8. Damn. I typed a long comment about how you're a master in card design, color.and in the art of coloring for light in this card, as it bounces off her face leaving the very edge white, and my internet dropped out and stole my.hard won typing on this silly phone! But all I meeded to say.was - you are a master at this and you've gained a new follower.
