LOTS of happy!

Not sure why, my mojo was easily excitable today and I literally couldn’t stop coming up with ideas. Good or bad ones, I’m leaving it to you, but it was pretty amusing regardless, seeing myself grinning over the papers like a kiddo… days like today remind me how much I love this stuff. Anyone with me?? ‘Course you are :)
It was the Moxie Fab World challenges that geared me up, there’s so many of them at the moment and each more awesome than the other. Here’s what I tackled.

Tuesday Trigger: A Painterly Palette. The pattern that the paint cans created, got me thinking about a background of elements which I could fill in with similar colours. I chose the cute Waltzingmouse jars and added a subtle Copic colour to each of them. After adding the sentiment, I scattered some confetti over one jar and put glitter over the dots for a sparkly bokeh effect. Or are they fireflies? :)

Next up, the Trendy Triangles Challenge. I can’t believe how trendy they actually are these days. I never thought I’d get excited about this stuff either but boy are they cute!! I combined the Studio Calico wood veneer shapes (shaded a couple with Copics) with the edgy papers. Notice how the pattern on the top paper, reinforces the effect of movement? I really like how all these elements look together.


Lastly, The Birthday Card Challenge. I wanted to use a stamp that’s designed for this purpose, rather than the generic flowers or such, and my choice fell on the Lil’ Inker retro girls. I brought them to life with a simple Copic colouring - no shading whatsoever. It’s a cool retro look!

Do you have a favourite? If so, which one?
