I have a fun card today made from two of Moxxie's new collections Fighting Back and Quite Contrary.

The chevron piece is from the Fighting Back line.  I love the muted tone of the gray.   The arrows are made from the reverse side of one of the patterned papers from the Quite Contrary line and the rest are solid card stocks.  And of course a little washi and bakers twine.  Who can resist?

I hope you enjoyed my card and thanks for popping in today.  Enjoy the hop!
Your next stop is Jennifer!

Storage Ideas

You know I love organizing just about everything.  This time I have figured out a great way to store my washi tape.

These containers are readily available and super cheap.  What more could you ask for?  I like to be able to pick up the roll of tape and tear off the size piece that I want.  If it is on a dowel or something like that you have to take all of the other rolls to get to the one you want.  I hate that don't you?  I can't believe I have had  these in other places in my home and I am just now thinking of this.  Wow!  What is wrong with me?  LOL   If you would like to see more fun organizational ideas head over to the Practical Scrappers blog.  There are some great ideas from the design team.

Until next time,
Michelle

Moxxie A-Muse-A-Palooza July Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,

Guess what day is today?  Yes, that is correct.  It is the first Friday of the month and that means it is Moxxie Blog Hop time.  This month we are going to shake things up just a bit!  Design Team Member Mary Pat Siehl has created another sketch for you and each Muse will show you their take on the sketch.  The Muses will be using all different Moxxie collections.  It is going to be so fun to see what collections the Muses are using and to see how each one interprets the sketch.

So let's get us started with the sketch!  This sketch is very fun and lends itself to many different interpretations.

Isn't this sketch great?  I loved it. 

My son and some of the kids from his school won the National History Day competition at the state level and got to move on to the National level.  The got to travel to Washington DC for a wonderful trip. 

I want to document this trip for him and the Moxxie Liberty line was perfect!  

The alphabet stickers and rub-ons were fun to work with and I think they added some special touches.  

One of the best parts of Mary Pat's sketch was the little doo dah at the bottom.  I love that sort of thing.  I used some of the patterned paper and made a fun, little "journaling" card.  I hope you liked my layout and are enjoying the hop so far.

So let's get hopping through the rest of the blogs.  Here are the Moxxie Muse's links.  Simply hop to ALL the blogs and Leave a Comment. Don't forget the final stop- The Moxxie Blog and leave a comment there.
