Cath will always be Moxie Fab!!!

Yep...I'm pretty sure this is the mother of all blog hops - the fun all starts on the Moxie Fab World Blog! If you've just arrived from Stasia Sloma, then you are in the right place!


I'm so excited to be part of honoring and sending Cath off from her long reign as queen of The Moxie Fab World blog - with all our love, appreciation, and thanks for the ways she inspired us along the way! While I know it is sad for a lot of us, I also hope that this next chapter of her life is full of new joys and experiences! So...I made a card celebrating that - with some inspiration from none other than Cath herself!!! Here is what I made:


And here is Cath's inspiration - she posted it HERE a few weeks ago, and I just KNEW I had to make a card with this as inspiration! I saved the post, and when this blog hop came up, I knew this was exactly what I wanted to make!


I had the woodgrain pattern paper sitting in my stash, and knew it was perfect for this! I used two Avery Elle sets to build my card, Oh Happy Day for the sentiment, and Laurels for the flowers, leaves, and extras. I used lots of MFT inks - so glad I happened to have all the right colors! I double stamped the sentiment in two colors to give it a bi-tone color effect.



Next, I trimmed the edges, used a bit of distress ink on them, and attached it at an angle to an Avery Elle kraft cardbase.


The entire blog hop line-up is below - I'm all the way at #171! You're next stop on the hop is Annette Witherspoon!

It will probably take a week to hop through - but I can't wait to see what everyone has made in tribute to Cath! Thanks for stopping by - and have a wonderful weekend!!!
