Cafe Mojo Challenge

The new Cafe Mojo challenge is up and this week the challenge is to scrapbook about your new daily routine! How do you fit it all in? What has been the biggest change for your family? How long did it take or do you think it will take to transition smoothly? Show us anything you want about your new routine!


I went with the school theme. This year my little ones started preschool so this is a big event for them as well as myself. Here is what I came up with using images from Unity Stamp Co. My sketch is this week's sketch from 52 Sketches.

That's it for now.

Till later.....

Cafe Mojo BOM

The last Tuesday of each month is the Book of Me challenge at Cafe Mojo. Do you keep a Book of Me? It's a fun thing to do for yourself and something neat to make for your children.

This week the BOM challenge is "What is your favorite beverage?". Mine is coffee, I drink at least a pot of coffee a day! HA No joke. My favorite coffee on the go is Dunkin Donuts and at home I make Maxwell House.

Here is my BOM page for my favorite beverage:
My images are by The Paper Company Studio (a set that I recently picked up at AC Moore), with the exception for the word addiction which was part of a Unity Stamp.

Come on over to the Cafe Mojo blog and play along, we'd love to see what you come up with.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cafe Mojo - Book of Me Challenge

Once a month at Cafe Mojo I will be hosting the Book of Me challenge. Do you keep a BOM? A scrapbook of sorts that is all about yourself? I never did but thought that this would be a good challenge for me and a nice thing to do. Perhaps my children will enjoy it someday? We'll see.

The first challenge today was to post an introduction page. Here is the page that I used:

I couldn't decide how I wanted to do this so I just started with an 8x8 page, we'll see how it goes. So come join us at Cafe Mojo for fun challenges and prizes for some of those challenges.

Till later...

Cafe Mojo - Mocha Mojo Friday!

It's Mocha Mojo Friday! Every Friday at Cafe Mojo there is a new challenge this week it is Ribbon/Lace. What fun! Who doesn't have loads of ribbon and probably lace hanging around. Do you hoard the stuff?

I made this card the other day and it uses "paper lace" by SEI. It's really cool so I wanted to share it again for Mocha Mojo Friday! I thought it was "different".

Be sure to pick up a cup of mojo at Cafe Mojo! There is always a chance to win something fun on Fridays so you don't want to miss out!

Thanks for stopping by!

Fruity Chai Challenge

It's Monday and that means another fun color challenge at Cafe Mojo, we like to call Fruity Chai Challenge! Come on and play along this week's colors are Pink and Navy! That makes a great combination don't you think? I picked up cute little chipboard albums at Michaels and this creation is my first page.

I used images from Unity Stamp Co for this. Be sure to swing by Cafe Mojo and play along with us.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cafe Mojo Sponsor Challenge

This month Queen Kat Designs is the Cafe Mojo Sponsor! The challenge put forth by the queen herself is to use purple, pink, grey, white, and some kind of crown! I decided to do a layout. I know I know I've been doing that a lot lately! LOL!

My images are from Queen Kat Designs. I thought this picture of my little princess (even though not the best shot) would work well for this challenge, after all that is a princess crown!

Be sure to swing by Cafe Mojo and see what the DT cooked up for this fun challenge and there is a prize being offered as well so you don't want to miss it.

Don't miss my first post today the big release from Clear & Simple Stamps.

Thanks for stopping by.

Mojo Mocha Friday

It's Friday and that means it's Mojo Mocha Friday with the Cafe Mojo gang. This week's challenge is to pull out those border punches and make something crafty. I decided to do another layout of my little girl.

I love this photo because it shows off her big blue eyes. I decided to take advantage of this cool paper by Me & My Big Ideas. It is an 8x8 book so I just had to trim it a bit and layered it on SU Mellow Moss and a bright pink (source unknown). The cute little bird is by Clear & Simple Stamps as is the sentiment up top which I used as a title.

Hop on over to the Cafe Mojo blog and check out the wonderful creations by the rest of the design team. I hope that you will pull out your border punches and participate in this fun challenge, can't wait to see what you come up with. By participating in Friday's challenge there is always a chance to win some goodies! See you at the Cafe.

Till later...

Mojo Mocha Friday!

Welcome to Mojo Mocha Friday! That's right Friday's are now Mojo Mocha Fridays! Every Friday Cafe Mojo will bring you a new fun challenge. So grab a cup of joe and play with us. This week the challenge is to Papercraft the man in your life. I decided to pick my son and I made a mini coaster album.

I started with a pack of chipboard coasters that I got at a dollar spot, I believe Target. The coasters were my base. Here is a snapshot of it. I will also share the inside pages with you.

Well that's what I have so far. I am thinking of adding more pages as I go along and of course now I will start to work on one for my daughter. The backs of these pages I left blank so that I can journal on them. If you have any questions let me know.

Be sure to swing on by the Cafe Mojo blog for some more inspiration, you won't be sorry. You will also want to play along as there will be a prize offered to one participant. Check out this link for all the details.
