Moxie Fab Challenge

Moxie Fab World has several challenges posted, and I'm playing with THIS one because who doesn't want a little more Papertrey goodies? And I don't own a single one of those stamps she is giving away, so I'm in!

Here is a group shot of everything ~ a card (of course!), a tag and an ornament!



First up is the ornament. It's four strips of paper folded in a particular way to make a 3-D star! I first had to stamp on the white strips in the colors that I was using on both sides of the strip and then fold it up. I used a bit of DMC floss to make a hanger.



And do you see this little cutie peeking out on different areas of the ornament? It's from WaltzingMouse Stamps set called Gingerbread Joy - Oven Fresh. All three items have stamps from this one set.



Next up is the tag, which measures four inches long. It has a bit of Papertrey Ink Spring Rain twill ribbon to bring out the blue, along with a Robin's Nest Dew Drop on it. The plain red card stock is Enchanted Evening and the plain green card stock is Ripe Avocado, both by PTI.



The sentiment is stamped directly on to a piece of Figgy Pudding paper by Basic Grey. I glitter-fied the little heart and applied Glossy Accents by Ranger around that for some more dimension.



I also glitter-fied the candy canes.



And finally pictures of the card! More of the Dew Drops and Spring Rain ribbon to tie into the Figgy Pudding paper. Who would have thought to us blue on a Christmas card with traditional red and green colors? Not me that's for sure, but I think it works.



Here is one of the gingerbread girl close up where you can see I put glitter on her too!!



And finally a picture of the inside, all nicely finished off waiting for me (or someone!) to write a nice little Christmas note of good cheer!



Christmas is coming in less than 4 months - no time like the present to get cracking at the cards!

Thanks for visiting today!

Oh I just love these! You have the other gingerbread set... I have the half baked one. Clearly I need both... especially since my daughter really doesnt want to share. LOL. I especially like that darling little tag. Good work!
