Moxie Fab Challenge: Signs of Peace

I made a couple birthday cards for this challenge over at the Moxie Fab Blog. http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2010/07/moxie-fab-world-challenge-signs-of.html

I used Papertrey card stock. The large peace sign and the smaller one in the back are from a set of peace signs that I bought at Michael's last year, but I know they still have it because I saw it last week! The love stamp is from an old set that I purchased from a local scrapbook store that went out of business last year. The Happy Birthday sentiment, candle, and the background heart, and frame die cut are all from Papertrey. I popped up the embossed peace sign, heart and the frame die. I really like how this turned out and think I will try to make some other "signs of peace" cards soon. I loved this challenge because I just haven't used those stamps in such a long time and this challenge brought them again!

Moxie Fab Challenge: Classy and Elegant

I made this card for the Moxie Fab Challenge
to make a card that is Classy and Elegant. I used the Fillable Frames stamp set and die from Papertrey Ink. I added some Amy Butler paper from Kand Co. and some jewels to make it sparkle.   I also made a card for the peace sign challenge but it is getting late so I will have to post that one tomorrow!                                                         

Moxie Fab Challenge: Clean and Graphic

I made this card for the Moxie Fab Challenge.

This was the hardest of the challenges for me. I wanted to add more and more.
The card stock and sentiment is from Papertrey. I used one of their dies to cut the chocolate brown card stock so the stamped image peeks through.

Moxie Fab Challenge: Shabby and Vintage

Here is my card for the Moxie Fab challenge to make a Shabby/ Vintage card...

I stamped a sentiment from Damask Designs from Papertrey Inc. and stamped a damask design on the ribbon and also on the paper in white.  I roughed up the edges and added an old earring that had no partner, some lace and a flower with a button center and sewed around the edges.

Moxie Fab Challenge: Fun and Cute

Since I don't really have a style yet, I decided to do all of the challenges at the Moxie Fab Blog.
http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2010/07/card-style-week-lets-do-fun-cute.html
I think the more styles I try, I can decide what I like best. The first challenge is to create a card that is fun and cute. Happy colors, cute squirrel, and polka dots. I used Papertrey Ink and Hero Arts stamps.
 Here is my take on "Fun and Cute". I made another one for a boy. No hearts on cupcake, just stars and no pink polka dots.
