No matter the season, no matter the occasion, no matter the holiday, no matter the style, no matter the recipient, no matter the mood, no matter the weather. No matter.
Stripes are always in style. Check it:
What's that you say? You couldn't agree more? Well, what's say you tell me which of these stripes is the most inspiring, or you profess your vertical love for all their horizontal possibilities by midnight MDT on Sunday, August 1, and I'll draw one random winner to receive a yummy from my moxie magical prize drawer!
Hyped for stripes,

Love, love, LOVE the yellow everyday handbag! Yum!
I love the Future Past skirt... the colours and cut are moxie fab!
Stripes have always been 'in', they will never go 'out', the are a staple in the world's wardrobe, I love those towels
I love all the stripes, but I'm always a sucker for Anthropologie -- all their stripes are awesome! Have fun at the SuperShow!
They are all inspiring in their own way, but I like the platter and the linen pillows the best
Those are fun, I love the black and white and red one.
All are wonderful but my favorites are Color Stripes Canisters from Pier 1 Imports and the yellow bag.TFS
Oh I"m loving the bath towels and the cardigan! Stripes are so cool!!
Stripes can go with any design, love them! My favorites among those you show are the bath towels: I both love the colors and the fact that all stripes are not the same width. Plus, these look so comfortable!
I love the Black Stripes apron because it gives you stripes both ways!!
I love the apron, stripes and dots, it can't get better than that. But I would't say no to the pillows and towels from PB either.
Eveline.
I'm in love with those canisters! They are so bright & cheery. They'd make me happy to cook :)
Oh, yeah! Love all those stripes! But that Nearly Nautical bikini is too die for cute with those little lacy ruffles! They are all so fun and inspiring!
I love the striped, monogram napkins!!
That Raya Platter has such inspiring colors. . .it calls my name to create something, hehe ;D
LOve stripes, especially the bright and happy ones...love the circle of stripes.....
Oh that apron is just OH OHH...all are just full of fun ! Happy Friday 2 U.
Lovin' the black and white apron! You're right about the stripes---anytime, anywhere!
Love the colors in the Doyle Stripe Organic Bath Towel from Pottery Ban. The colors cry out - beach layout!!!
I love stripes! Especially love the red and black vintage apron with black and white stripes going both ways! Have a great weekend!
Very difficult question; I should choose the IKEA boxes (for being a Swede) or the salsa stripes wash clothes (for speaking Spanish) or the candle light holders for living in a dark country and always using candles all winter long...
Very hard to choose so if I had to choose one of all items I thonk I'd go for the first picture - Crate - whatever it is... Love the colours and have made both two cards and two LO:s with the same coluurs scheme!
La Vikinga
Love the stripes....I can't pick just one....the everyday handbag is AWESOME and the striped towel is out of this world. Yellow and orange....my favorite colors.
I am digging those striped canisters! Cool photos! Have fun at the CHA booth!
I love that cute vintage look black and white apron!
The black and red apron is amazing!
There are several that catch my eye but my fave (not quite sure why) is the dish towel by crate and barrel.
I would have to say my favorite are the towels from Pottery Barn. I love using stripes on my cards. They always add a nice graphic element!
I love the colors in the dishtowel. I could see a birthday card in that design. Great inspiration. Thanks.
I love stripes! The one Im most inspired by is the Raya Platter. Love it~
I love the navy & white bikini with the ruffled look and the Ikea striped boxes. First is a nautical look for a summer card and then the second reminds me of rainbows!
I love stripes and seem to use them all the time in my cards! The purse of yellow and white might be my fave of all you displayed, it's sooooo cool!
I find that I use stripes frequently to add jazz to my cards and layouts. I love that cute black, red and white apron, even though I'm not an apron kind of girl. Except when we're having spaghetti.
I have to say that I laughed out loud when I saw this column is all about strpies - as I wore stripes today!! :) The last cardigan from Anthropoligie is delish! I may have to make a trip and see if I can find one! :)
I am ALWAYS on the lookout for pretty striped paper - it makes a nice contrast with my florals!
love the IKEA boxes ... and the apron, too ;-)
*love* the zebra striped lantern (I have a thing for zebra) and seeing the striped pillows and yellow-and-white striped bag makes me want to SEW!!
That vintage black and white striped apron really lights my fire!
The towels inspire a masculine card, just love the bikini for a fashion card, and who wouldn't love the bright, classic and well tailored apron!
I love all those stripes. The yellow handbag is awesome! I so just can't get myself to wear stripes on the body since I am pregnant and have WAY too much curve for them to be straight stripes right now! But I love to put them on cards!
love that handbag....stripes are classic!
How fun would it be to do some baking while wearing that adorable apron!!
cute apron, and love those canisters!
Ooh, so hard to choose a favorite! I would have to say the Future Past skirt from Anthropologie or the adorable black and white apron. Fabulous photos and inspiration!
Really? I have to pick just one? Too hard. LUVIN' that first plate, the bright colors are amazing, and the last cardigan with that cutesie ruffle down the middle, IT is to-tal-ly fab!
I like the Pottery Barn's Doyle stripe bath towels. I really like the color combination.
I just loooooove the skirt from Anthropologie-too bad it's 100 bucks! At least I can still draw crafty inspiration from it...
I love that future past skirt. I love stripes in general, especially in bright colors!
I am totally loving the striped plate.... I could seriously get creative with that baby! :) Lovin' some stripes!
The Linen Stripe Pillow Covers are ringing my "Fabulous " bell :o)
Hope you are having fun at CHA, I'm enjoying your photos on FB :o)
That stunning yellow and white striped purse makes me think of a 50s bombshell in her high-waisted hot pants. Such a great design.
Love those towels from Pottery Barn! Yummy colors!
Definitely the Raya Platter from Crate & Barrel is the most inspiring. When I quilt stripes are a must!
I love stripes and my favourite is the first one - the platter. Thanks!
The canisters from Pier 1 are wow!
I'm actually using stripes as one of my motifs as I redecorate my bungalow. The yellow-striped handbag looks like a blouse I used to wear - the 90s are back! And my bedsheets are solid yellow with blue & white stripes.
Love the stripes on the organic towels. The colors are great.
Love the cardigan & the bag!
Wow...it is hard to pick just one! I love and have always loved stripes! the yellow purse is adorable and the aprons are awesome too!
Love the striped towels from Pottery Barn and the striped crocks from Pier 1 - seems I'm always gravitating toward striped paper when I'm shopping!!
Love the apron with black & white stripes and just a touch of red!
The bikini sent me in angst....lol I WISH I could wear it! lol
I love that gorgeous striped platter!! Inspirational for sure!
Love those towels! I actually have the same ones :)
It's an inspiring collection, but the most powerful for me were the gradient stripes of the Future Past skirt and Rise-and-Fall cardigan from Anthropologie.
I'm not a stripes kind of girl, but I have to say that I absolutely adore that red/black/white apron. I'm definitely using that inspiration for a card!!
I'm loooooooooving the handbag and the bikini! I hardly ever wear stripes--must give it a go!! Thanks for the chance to win:)
I love the 4 petal cardi. Is that youe, this year's, striped bikini from anthropologie?
I love all stripes! The pillows are awesome...so soft in so many ways!
I just LOOOOOVE the apron from metalissa!!! Wowzers! I agree; stripes are always fashionable.
I'm loving the black and white striped apron with the red accents. So very pretty...stripes, classic, black and white, classic. Can't go wrong with those combinations. And with the lines going vertically like that...very slimming too!
Extremely hard choice, but if I have to choose one photo, I suppose the soft linen stripes on the pillows. But, they're all fun.
I love all the stripes, but the salsa dishtowel is calling my name.
I LOVE that apron, it's just perfect!
I love the black with red vintage style apron!!!
its a cross between the dinner plate and that great sweater at the end. love stripes
Love the strips! Great collection, thanks. I don't use them enough on my cards and sb pages. I love the very first plate. My next set of dishes will be striped!
So hard to choose - I love them all. But if pressed, I guess I would choose the towels.
I love the Black, White, & Red striped apron! While I'm not a huge fan of stripes on my body, I love them on my cards and layouts!!
Love the plate! I'm thinking I need to make one of those folded flowers with some striped paper now! :)
I'm loving the apron! Wearing that would definitely inspire me to make some out of the ordinary!! cool stripes
the plate from crate & barrel caught my eye, but i love anthropologie's past future skirt! ~k
Stripes are "in" all the time for me. I really love that vintage apron with the stripes and polka dots - crisp and eye catching!
Love the yellow striped purse!
Strips scream summer to me. Nautical, beachy, and fresh.
Love the Crate & Barrel platter and the canisters from Pier 1, but I lust after the 'fromnancy' handbag - I want it now.
Oh, that bikini is to die for! My husband may not be very pleased with you later on...I'm just say'n. LOL! So cute!!!
i just LOVE that striped apron! it's so whimsical and it makes u wanna put it on and get in the kitchen and cook up something yummy! :)
I love the plate! I would love a whole set of dishes like this!
Oh, and by the way, I want to steal your banner . . . love your doggy!!! Only problem, I have no blog to put it on! Love it!
I especially love the apron - stripes meets polkadots!
Hmm, I think those Doyle stripe towels from Pottery Barn are my fav.
I'm all for the apron! So cute!
I'm inspired by the crate and barrel striped plate--I can see a cool rainbow colored circle on a cute card.
That apron is the essence of stripey cuteness!
The color stripes canisters really grab my eye!
I can see you are having fun at CHA. I like the apron the best & the boxes next. Thanks
I just love the Pottery Barn napkins with the red stripe. The way it is wide and faded is great. It reminds me of ticking stripe, casual and a touch of elegant all at once.
I am loving the Black Stripes with Red Vintage Style Apron!
Love the yellow striped handbag the best & personally love stripey knickers! Just looking around my craftroom stripes are everywhere - from the strip flooring to the vertical shelving, to the piles of scrapbooking magazines, to the ladder used to access the top of my stash cupboards...it's a striped world I tell ya!!!
Love the vinatge black and white apron with red trim - 'cause if you absolutely have to be in the kitchen, you might as well look good!!!!!!!!!
I can't pick just one, so my two faves are the black and white apron with red trim (one of my all-time favorite color combos!) I also love the striped box from IKEA< because it's just so fab!
I absolutely love the black and white stripes with the pop of red on the apron. So inspiring!! I may have to pull out my scrapping goodies today and give it a try on a card. Thanks for sharing the Moxie Fab inspiration with us today!! I can't wait to see the awesome new products you will share with us from CHA.
Hugs,
Amy ♥
Love the Pottery Barn towels.
Love that striped apron....Looks like something Lucy would wear.
And I do not even wear aprons. Guess it's the color combo that I like the most.
oh, I don't think I could wear that cute bikini...so I'll go with the Crate and Barrel plate. Love the summery colors, and it reminds me of the sun. :)
Love the striped organic bath towels. Don't usually think of organic in such vibrant colors.
You always choose the best images! I love stripes, though I look really bad in them, LOL! Very fun and thanks for the inspiration!
hey! my mom just bought those Pier 1 cannisters. cool!
I love the Raya Platter from Crate & Barrel. The different widths and gorgeous colors make me happy!
I love the four petal cardi! I love the way the stripes accent the top half, but flow downward on the bottom to help ellongate the figure, and of course gotta love that bright green!
I love stripes!!! I especially love the Pottery Barn blue striped towels! I just recently made a birthday card for my father-in-law with, you guessed it, stripes!! :)
I am loving the apron. The color of the stripes speak to me.

Hmm...apron or towels? Apron or towels? Well and apron means cooking and a towel means a hot bath. I'm going for the towels;D
I absolutely love the black striped vintage apron!! How fun would that be to cook in?! I stopped by the Paper Crafts booth this afternoon to say hi, but I missed you. I met Jennifer, Susan and Maren though - FUN!
I'm lovin all the stripes but the black/white/red apron has got to be my favorite!!!

My favorite piece is the plate! I Love the funky colors!
That black/white/red retro apron is to die for!!! Too cute! I want to run to my studio and make a card inspired by it right now!

OMGosh--I am in LOVE with that black and red vintage style apron!!! It is moxie fab aka too stinkin' cute! :-)
"What the hype about the Strips,
Either horizontal or vertical, they are just so whimsical."
Oh, I just love stripies... and the canisters from Pier 1 Import are so vibrant, so colorful. I just love them :)
Am quite certain in a most intolerant sort of way as to how anyone with any sanity and taste could think otherwise than the Black Stripe with vintage Red apron from metalissa is the best stripe ...but one clearly would have to wear the Nearly Nautical Bikini from Anthropologie underneath the apron. Perfect. Would outstrip any other stripe.
The apron! I have some cute vintage images that would go great on a card made with that inspiration!
I love stripes and the Salsa Stripe orange Dishtowel from Crate & Barrel speaks to my creative genes. I'm off to make a card :)
That Crate & Barrel platter and IKEA boxes make me HAPPY! Good thing neither of those stores are particularly close to me!
Love, love, love STRIPES! That yellow striped handbag is adorable!
I really like the 1st photo of the plate from Crate & Barrel. love those colors!
Love the cardigan.
The best thing about stripes (for papercrafters) is all you need to create them is paper and scissors (or a trimmer). Easy peasy!
I gotta go with the IKEA striped clothes boxes ~ just love the colors on that!
Linen Stripe Pillow Covers from Pottery Barn are my favorites.
I love the yellow and white
