The Card Creations: Start to Finish Challenge Winners

While Cath and the rest of the Paper Crafts team are soaking up the trends at CHA, my pregnant self [Brandy J.] is holding down the fort. :) I can’t complain. I’ve been able to get lots of CHA peeks on the Paper Crafts and Moxie Fab World Facebook pages and I’ve also been elected the lucky lady who gets to hang out with all of you today! I had so much fun looking at all your Card Creations: Start to Finish submissions. Your talent and creativity never cease to amaze me. Limiting my picks to 5 was tricky, but I think I’ve done it. So without further ado, let’s reveal our winners…

All Things Grow Card by Karla Kroese

Moxie Fab Alert: Karla did an amazing job of tying the outside and the inside together by placing her tree on the edge of the card. The rolling hills and soft blue sky are also great elements that appear on the outside and the inside to create a truly moxie fab and cohesive project!

Home Sweet Home Card by Julie Campbell

Moxie Fab Alert: I love the way Julie used the same supplies on the outside and the inside while still managing to make the inside simple enough to add your own note and signature!

A Good Day Card by Heather

Moxie Fab Alert: Humor is always moxie fab! If that isn’t enough, Heather also split up the sentiment so the entire thought wasn’t just on the front. This way the sentiment inside is like a little treat (and a good laugh) for the recipient.

Inside:

Flowers Bloom Often Card by Jimmi Mayo

Moxie Fab Alert: By designing and placing the sentiment in the same manner on the inside and the outside, Jimmi’s card flows beautifully. She also carries design elements, like the scalloped edges and the patterned paper, from the outside to the inside for one moxie fab creation.

For All You Do Card by Silke Ledlow

Moxie Fab Alert: By simply using the same basic colors and shapes on the outside and the inside of the card, Silke created one beautifully breathtaking project.
