No Mojo Today!

I have to be honest...I wasn't feeling all that creative today. I wanted to - I really did. But I just sat there at stared at my cabinet full of stamp sets and absolutely nothing came to mind! Its like being hungry and opening the refrigerator only to find that nothing really tickles your fancy. How frustrating?!?

I decided to pull out another one of Kristina Werner's color combinations. Its Sahara Sand, So Saffron, Wild Wasabi, and Pumpkin Pie. I kept the layout pretty simple - the card base is Whisper White with a slightly smaller piece of Sahara Sand layered on top. The patterned paper is from the Jersey Shore collection. The white grosgrain ribbon covers the seam between the two different designs of patterned paper.

Originally the chipboard star was only covered with So Saffron Craft ink...but it was a little to bland, so I added some Chunky Sprinkles glitter. For the sentiment, I spelled out "you are" in Wild Wasabi on Whisper White cardstock. Then, I inked "absolutely fabulous" from the Absolutely Fabulous stamp set with VersaMark and embossed it with white embossing powder. I added a couple of brads in the corners to tie the colors together.
