When I first found the Moxie Fab World I was so excited. I remember showing my husband the Tuesday Trigger and my submission to ask his opinion. Could he see how I was inspired by the photo? I remember him zooming in on the picture of Cath with her feather boa and asking me who she was. I told him that was "the Moxie Fabulous Cath who runs the Moxie Fabulous World - and if she says it's Moxie Fabulous then you better pay attention!" I guess he was listening because after that, whenever I would drag him to the craft store with me he would sneak up behind me with a feather boa he found in the craft section draped around my neck and ask me if he was Moxie Fabulous?!! He always finds a way to make me laugh and yes Roger if you are reading this - you are Moxie Fabulous!
So all this month we will be featuring Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger inspiration pics. Here's this weeks' inspiration. Wow! Don't have to ask me what I see here - love the color! Bright turquoise, navy and gold! And yes!! Peacock feathers of course! YAY!! Now which feathers to choose?? I went with the Waltzingmouse Funky Feathers because I think the shape most closely resembles the shape of a Peacock feather. I added a turquoise and navy dot to the center of the leaf and stamped it on aqua mist paper to add lots of color!! Got feathers? Time to get stamping!
Because I couldn't decide if I should go CAS or Fussy I made one of each. You decide which one you like best. They are like my children, I love them both!

I loved your story--how fun to have a moxie-fabulous husband! I cannot get my DH within 100 yards of a Michaels, so I wouldn't know what that is like. I really love both of your cards, but would have to vote for the CAS version if I had to pick a favorite. I think you chose the perfect stamp set for this challenge.
Now if that is not another perfect take on inspiration then I don't know what is! So very pretty and lovely!
Oh Jeanne this is so gorgeous!
They are both absolutely Moxie Fab! Sorry, couldn't resist. I love the elegance of the first card and the simply repeating pattern on the second. Great work!
Seriously! How amazing are you!?! Not one but 2 stunning cards!
I just read your story - love it!
I love both, too! And I loved the story about your husband...he sounds like a hoot. How fun!
Oh, I love them both! Such a beautiful palette, and I adore your theme!
Two great cards!
Gorgeous peacock card! Swoon!
I love them both too! I'm just a little partial to the fussy one though. That paper with the peacocks and the gorgeous gold border piece are stunning!
