Mojo Monday #343

Mojo 343 photo Mojo343picA.jpg

Time for another Tall and Skinny sketch.  Lots of opportunity to use some patterned paper on this one.

I dipped into MME's Notable pack as it had nice, bright colours.  The sentiment is from Let it Be and I just had to use the Loopy Blooms die as this flower is just too fun :)   I added a scalloped border with black pearls along the bottom for a little something, something.

All the challenge details are over on the Mojo Monday blog and you can also view all the wonderful Mojo Makers samples.  Should you wish more details on the Mojo Maker's cards, you can also visit their individual blogs noted below.

As many of you read this, we will be flying over the Pacific Ocean on our way home from a family vacation in Hawaii.  I have a ton of photos to download, and once I sort through them all, I will fill you in on our adventures.   But first of all, I need a nap LOL!  We took the red eye home (left Honolulu at 11:55 p.m. last night) and sleeping on planes at the best of times is not overly comfortable.  Groceries and laundry are top priority for today so we are all ready to get back into our routines tomorrow.
