Make it Monday and Moxie Fab



by Dawn McVey



The other day when I went to one of my favorite stamp stores, not online, I found this product and I really like it a lot. Maybe its something you all use already …but for me its new …...
easy and no mess. 
You just brush it on and buff with a Kleenex if you want. I have many ideas  for this. I was just kinda messing around on this card to try it out.



Ok, this is not a favorite of mine but I am going to post it anyway. I feel like it has too much going on.  I wanted to show you this new metallic cream I found…. and enter the two challenges .


Hope you have a wonderful day !

Everything on this card is from Papertrey Ink!

Merry Monday #75 GD




The shimmer is not showing up in the photo but looks
 beautiful in person.



I won the Merry Monday Challenge, with THIS
 card a few weeks ago. So that means I also win a spot as a
 Guest Designer. 
How exciting! Thank You! 

Sometimes a mistake can work to your advantage. The first  image I stamped had some red outside the line.  I did it over again. Since I had the other image with the glitter on it already , I decide to hand cut and pop up some of the Mistletoe to add some dimension . It might be hard to see if you don't click on the image.
 I think next time I will heat emboss with clear powder. 

Thank you for stoping by 
Hope you have some time to make a card.

Curtain Call



 I have lots of catching up to do as it was a fun busy weekend. My
husband took me( he wanted to go with me because he knew how much I love that place) to one of my favorite stamps stores in Claremont, it is such a beautiful little college town that reminds me a bit of back east. 
On friday I went to one of the beautiful Presidential Libraries that we have here in California . The evenings were spent with friends.  


 I have a quick card for the Curtain Call  . I got out my Papertrey Ink sunflowers as I don't have the C.B. one yet.

 I have to hurry grandkids and husband waiting for me to go swimming with them. We are still very hot here in California! 

 Thanks for stoping by and I hope everyone had a nice weekend. 
Praying for all those affected by the floods in Colorado.

CAS.ology and Merry Monday

 I die cut about 6 bats and decided to just layer them and not
 put them all over the card so it would stay CAS.
I love how that turned out.



 Hi , I think everything on the first card is from Lil' Inker Designs  but the sentiment is from Waltzingmouse Stamps


This will fold down nicely for mailing.





Sorry about the bad picture the light was just cooperating with me today. I used Lil' Inker  for the dies on this card, Waltzingmouse Stamps for the sentiment and Papertrey Ink for the woodgrain. 

Thanks so much for stopping by. 

Hope you have a Blessed weekend!

 I just love using this sweet set that was part of a birthday gift!

SSCB #19 Tri Shutter Card



Just thought I would let you know the new Bird Die
 is a huge hit and selling fast! 

 We have a new Design Team member ! Karen is just as
 sweet as can be, and creates beautiful cards.  So lets give a big WELCOME  to Karen Amidon

I know this card doesn't  have any extras, but I wanted to showcase some of the super cute Halloween stamps from Serendipity . I thought anything extra would be just too much. I have a lot going on already…don't you think! :)


This week we were asked to make a Tri- Shutter card.
For me the easiest way to make the white part of the card was to just make two tri-shutter cards. Then I just trimmed down the white card about 1/4 less than the main card.  
I hope you give it a try.

The sale this time is FREE shipping if you spend 10$ or more. 
 You will want to see what the rest of the DT has made as I know they will not disappoint. 











Lots of stamps to list! All from Serendipity Stamps

WMS Bedtime story


I almost forgot to post this one.


In a hurry to get this one in on time I forgot to post it. Would you believe I do not have any oval dies. I have some on order and waiting for them in the mail.  So this is my go to oval. 
 I stamped kraft paper with WaltzingmousePinstripe Backgrounder . I added a bit of Glossy Accents to the berries.  I know this one is almost the same as my last card I posted  but I loved the colors and
Simple Sprig so much I just had to  use it again. 

Thanks for stoping by and I hope you have a great weekend.

Papertrey Ink for the sentiment.
Spellbinders Heirloom Ornaments and 
of course Lil Inkers

Dynamic duos and Simon Says




Above card has white sequins
 and below yellow sequins that  I colored in with my Copics.

 All I did was a bit of fussy cutting and stamped in a few shades of Plum . The stamps are from  Serendipity Stamps . I love this Quote from Mother Teresa
