Default TLC943 Mini Moo 03/20/2023

Happy Monday!!

Today's challenge is a mojo refresh challenge. Or at least it was for me. I have been really struggling with mojo lately but I saw the challenge at Vera Lane Studios and I got so excited. The challenge was to create a "mini moo" every day for the month of March with daily prompts. I decided to take the challenge and it has been so much fun and has really renewed my joy in doing something daily even if just for a few minutes. So our challenge is to create a Mini Moo...

A mini moo is a card that is 1.125" X 2.75" - half of a business card lengthwise. It is such a small canvas that it isn't overwhelming. Also, This size is perfect for those scraps! Which as you may know, using up my scraps has been a goal for me this year. I used both scraps of water color and heavy card and scraps of previously created backgrounds - you save those too right. It is ok to admit it You can also just start fresh if you don't have scraps.

OK - now you have a background cut to the correct size, just decorate it and that is all there is to it. I love adding little sentiments so the can stand on their own. It is fun just looking at these sweet cards on my desk but these could be traded (like ATCs) or if you wanted, you could mount them on a card base for a CAS card where the focal piece is anything but CAS. Just have fun and don't stress over it.

Note: It is also fun to look through the stash of pre-colored images you may have already (if you are like me and sometimes you just want to color and not create a project.) If any fit the mini moo card, it is that much more awesome as you have now scrounged through scraps and colored images and you get to actually make something from them. SCORE!

I can not wait to see what you come up with!!

Hugs,
Lyn

I did use a business card from my old boss that I chopped up to get the right size. I have quite a few to use.

I'm afraid to admit how many tries it took me to get it right. I couldn't get the sun and cloud lined up right ... etc. but finally settled on this one! TLC943 Bunny Mini Moo by cheermom at Splitcoaststampers

This looks like fun and I hope to get to it by Wednesday, energy permitting. I remember when scraplings were a thing, made with the 1 1/2" x 4 piece left when making a 4" square card, and this looks pretty similar, but with the benefit of being able to use them on a card.

New to the Mini Moo idea, but it was a fun idea and could see using it as embellishments for other things.
