Lovely Linda said this would fit with the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge19 (to use patterned paper) also, so here's the 3rd challenge: (Thanks Linda)
I've had this Basic Grey paper for years and I knew one day it would be just the right paper for something. When I saw the DDIC5 inspiration shirts, I knew this paper would work perfectly. I used the Mojo sketch to make it into a card for my niece. She just had a baby and she and her husband are leaving for Okinawa for a couple years next month. I know she likes blue, so this works great.
It took awhile to get it the way I wanted, but I think it turned out okay. I hope she likes it. I used Swiss Dots EF on all the papers, but don't know if it shows up too well in photo! I used a real pretty shiny copper flower with green mixed in behind the stamped paper pieced flower from Garden Greetings. The rest was bling and ribbon.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look at my card today. If you have a quick moment, let me know what you think!! I really appreciate it!!

You are on a roll this week my friend!!! The mojo is working for sure! You rocked this sketch - love all the layers and that fabulous flower in the centre. If your niece doesn't like it, send it to me! Embossing (love Swiss Dots), bling, punches (gotta have something punched somewhere on the card) - all the ingredients for another awesome 'Pam' card...

I love this - it's gorgeous! (And you linked your card in just the right place so no worries!) So much detail in this card I don't know where to start... love the colors, patterns, textures, your use of the sketch - everything!

Pam, you are moving on with the cards. This is beautiful and I love the copper colors with the blue. Your niece is going to be gone away for quite a while. I am sure your cards will be comforting to her in her home away from home. The card couldn't be better.
