It's Mojo Monday and I get to introduce you to this week's sketch (MOJO88). I love this mojo design gig! Today's wedding (or anniversary) card blends texture, pretty paper and exquisite cream pearls. The sentiment is from the Stampin' Up! stamp set "Very Versatile," currently available in the Occasions Mini Catalog.

- The Very Versatile sentiment was inked in Chocolate Chip and stamped on Very Vanilla card stock.
- It's cropped with a Full Heart Punch.
- Using Stampin' Up!'s Heart to Heart Punch, I popped out the smallest heart with Riding Hood Red Textured card stock and adhered.
- A Circle Scissor Plus allows you to customize your circle size up to 6". I used it to create a 2" circle of Chocolate Chip Textured card stock. The sentiment is layered on top with Stampin' Dimensionals.
- Two 1 1/4" x 3 1/4" panels combine Bella Rose Designer Series Paper and Chocolate Chip card stock.
- Four Pretties halfback pearls dress up the corners. TIP: A Mini Glue Dot (103683) keeps the pearls in place.
- The 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" Riding Hood Red Textured card base is topped with Very Vanilla (defined with Texturz Plates and a Big Shot) and a sweet chocolate polka dot pattern from Bella Rose.
- The crowning touch is Stampin' Up!'s Ribbon Originals Dress Up ribbon in Riding Hood Red.
- TIP: With a remaining scrap of Bella Rose Designer Paper, I covered the flap of a Medium Very Vanilla Envelope and trimmed away the excess.

I just can’t decide if I like the heart punches or the pearls the best!! Another exquisite card from you, thanks for sharing.
Beautiful!! Can you use the texturz plates in the Cuttlebug? Thanks!
Hi Marcia:
The Texturz Plates fit in the Cuttlebug . . . you would need to figure out which sandwich works best for your machine.
Hugs, M
