I'm having a quiet weekend - my favorite kind. Everyone else is off doing their things and I'm left home to "keep shop" so I thought I'd play along with Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger. Is this Moxie Fab Trigger Target adorable or what? I love all the details on this sweet little house with the bird on the roof. It was easy to find some inspiration here to create a gorgeous one-of-a-kind card. I was immediately inspired by the polka dots, and the sweet little bird on the roof. I tried to keep in all the little details I love - the ribbon ruler, the green scallop trim, the button door knob and even the little flower trim. I embossed the wood grain bottom panel of my card with an embossing folder and then lightly ran a Tim Holtz/Ranger distress inkpad over the impression to make the wood pop. I originally tried Antique Linen which wasn't quite dark enough, and then settled on Vintage Photo. I tried to replicated the window with my sentiment - the red frame on the outside with the blue polka dot pattern on the inside. All the blue polka dots are stamped, and the wing for the bird was cut free hand.
I hope you like it! Thanks so much for stopping by to have a look. Enjoy your day!!
Jeanne
