Round or Square (MOJO176)

It was fun to play with Mojo Monday today because my friend Gisela came over and we designed the card together. Although these aren't her colors (which made it harder for her to combine them), she still gave her input and it turned out great! I hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it!

NOTE: To make the flower, I cut five scallops with the 2-3/8" Scallop Punch. First, I broke the fiber of the paper by pressing the scallops firmly with the bone folder. After the fiber was broken, I pulled apart each scallop into two. This can be a bit tricky but the key is to do it slowly. Once you've finished doing this with all five scallops (you should now have ten scallops), mist them with water to moisten the paper. Scrunch the scallops and open them up with care because they can be easy to break since the paper is moist. Once they dry, give color on the borders using the daubers. I used Baja Breeze and River Rock.
I used the same technique to make the leaves.
Don't hesitate to email me if you have any questions.
Enjoy!
