I’m so excited to share today’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO238), since it’s based one of my personal designs! The essence of this “quilt” card is the Stampin’ Up! 1 1/4″ Square Punch and With All My Heart stamp set. With All My Heart stamp set (images at the end of this post) is one of 300 Stampin’ Up! stamp sets retiring on May 31. Be sure to purchase it before it’s gone!

I don’t think my “quilt” design inspiration (from The Company Store) needs much explanation 🙂
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- The “flower” stamp from With All My Heart was heat embossed in white on scraps of Old Olive, Cajun Craze, Rich Razzleberry and Island Indigo.
- Each embossed image was cropped with the Stampin’ Up! 1 1/4″ Square Punch.
- To keep squares lined up, I adhered them to a 3 5/8″ x 4 7/8″ piece of Whisper White Card Stock. It’s slightly smaller than the total surface area of the squares, which ensures the white card stock is hidden.
- The entire “quilt” is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two Jewels Basic Rhinestones accent the “friend” sentiment.
JUST 2 MORE DAYS UNTIL the Stampin’ Up! Retired Accessories List will be released. Retiring accessories (including the D?cor Elements and Simply Adorned lines which are both being discontinued) will only be available while supplies last. Be ready to order early! I’ll share the list on my blog pronto!
PLEASE REMEMBER that the Stampin’ Up! 2012-2013 Annual Catalog will be released June 1, 2012, a month earlier than in the past.

A most beautiful quilt!
Gorgeous, Mary! Love your take on your inspiration photo and the colors rock!
Hi Mary, love the card. The moment I saw it, I thought of Hawaii and Hawaiian quilts. Very cool, I have to go dig through the stamp sets and see if I have this set. Thanks for being my inspiration this morning.
Oh my goodness Mary, this card packs a big punch. It’s awesome! I can imagine this in Halloween colors with embossed spiders, autumn colors with embossed leaves, Christmas colors…oh the ideas are endless. Thanks for sharing!
beautiful!
Mary, it’s clear to see why you are so successful. This card is so cool; you come up with the greatest designs. What a clever way to use up those scraps; I hate to throw them out too but sometimes an idea comes and it turns out great like this card. Thanks for sharing and for your always inspiring us! Have a great day!
Always look forward to Mon. Mojo! It’s on my Check-it-out list….Love the color combo….another home run!!
Gonna have to case this one, hope you don’t mind.
Another great card, Mary! The colors are perfect together. Glad you found that inspiration and transferred it to a beautiful card to share!
A perfect interpretation of your inspiration picture. This is a gorgeous card! Love the colors!
WOW Mary – that is one beautiful card. What an amazing amount of work you did with the embossing -SOMEONE is going to FLIP when they receive that card in the mail (you know my addy girlfriend)! Fabulous JOB girlfriend and I’ve got this one tagged to make for someone special too!
WOW! What a crisp eye catching card Mary. I have had this set since it came out and never would have imagined using it in this way. Clear, fresh and beautiful, plus it is another way to use up scraps. Thanks again for sharing with us – I’m going to make one like it today!
