Sweater Weather & Info about Mo’s Patreon page

 Hello again! Hope you’re doing well and enjoying some beautiful Autumn weather! I have another Autumn card to share with you! This one is a 5.5” x 4.75” Z-fold card and features a lovely Mo image called “Sweater Weather.” This young lady has such a sweet smile . . . and those glasses are such fun!!



Here’s a peek at the card opened . . . 


This image included that cute sentiment too! Sadly, this gorgeous image can’t be found in Mo’s online store, or as a rubber stamp. This image was released as a special FREE image last year (or maybe in 2021 . . . I can’t recall) for members/patrons of Mo’s Patreon page. Not familiar with Patreon? Here’s what I know . . . 

Patreon is an online place where artists provide education, coupons, and free items. I personally am a patron of an incredible pastel artist from Georgia. For a small monthly fee, I get access to a variety of educational videos by that artist. Plus I like supporting artists!

On Mo’s Patreon page, there are several “tiers” including one for $5.00/month and another for $10/month. I signed up for the latter tier. I get access to one or two free EXCLUSIVE images a month, a pre-release image (before it’s available in Mo’s store), and a special code for a discount in the store. Now that’s a smokin’ deal! And that’s how I got my hands on this gorgeous “Sweater Weather” digi image! 

I’ve always loved Mo’s images, and have been using them for more than 10 years!!! So this is a great way for me to support one of my fave artists (Mo Manning) and get some great rewards for doing it!! So . . . why not check it out for yourself at www.Patreon.com. When you get to the Patron page, just click on “find creators”…then click on “Mo’s Digital Pencil”…choose your tier and get ready to have some fun!!!

That’s it for me. Thanks for stopping by. Have a blessed day.

Valerie in Autumn

Hey friends! So . . . I’m learning a new skill here! I’m trying to figure out how to use my iPad for posting onto my blog and, I must say, the learning curve is a steep one for me (a Baby Boomer who doesn’t understand technology!) Fingers crossed and we’ll see how this works out!

Here’s an autumn card I recently made using the adorable digi “Valerie in Autumn” available HERE in Mo’s online store. 

The digi file contains two images . . . This is one of the images. Isn’t she totally adorable? And here’s a quick peek at the inside . . .

I used lots of supplies from my stash of designer papers and dies! And I colored Valerie with my Copic Sketch markers.  Sentiment and pumpkin stamps, as well as card stock papers, are all from Stampin’ Up.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit! Now let’s see if I can publish this successfully! Hehehe!
