Moxie Fab World- Vertical Sketch Challenge


How was your weekend, peeps?

Mine was GREAT!!! I can finally see the top of my crafting desk and I was able to make a bunch of cards over the weekend.

Then....on top of all my craftiness, I also baked a cake last night...from scratch. Martha...watch out...that's all I'm sayin!

Now, I know that Beyonce tried to upstage me last night by showing up preggo to the MTV awards...nice try B. You may be famous, rich and a fantastic performer...but I make cards...and cake. So there.

So, this week is going to be jammed packed with half sheets of fun.

Today's CAS card is for one of the current Moxie Fab Sketch Challenges.  

Here's the sketch...


Now, you know I couldn't just stick the sketch as is...I decided to rotate it and create a colorful one layered wonder.

I was inspired by this mug that I found on my beloved Pinterest...





I made this Simple McSimpleton card with the help of one, lone stamp from the PTI A Little Argyle stamp set.

I love building a fun, graphic design with just one stamp!

Now, I know this is a little bit of a reach when interpreting the sketch...but I think it works!

See you tomorrow with more cards!

Supplies:
Stamps: PTI (A Little Argyle, Think Big Favorite's #3)
Ink: Stampin Up (Rose Red, Tempting Turquoise, Apricot Appeal, Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wasabi) Vivid Dye Ink ( Fuchsia), Ranger Archival Ink Jet Black 
Cardstock: PTI white
