Got Moxxie?

Baseball w/ Muse Amy

Moxxie's new line "All Star Baseball" is a smash hit. It is great for baseball AND perfect for patriotic pages celebrating America. 

These pictures of my friend's son are so perfect for this line. Though I'm planning some 4th of July pages with these star spangled papers as well! This was an easy page to put together thanks to the easy to use Moxxie stickers and papers. 

 

I love that Moxxie prints on the backside of the strips that tell the company and line. I used the strip with "baseball" over and over that is attached to the blue paper here. I also love that MOXXIE is so trendy and plays with the current cool arrows that I repeated with textured gesso on the page. I added some pop dots, distressing and journaling and I had myself a home run!

 

Faith art journal w/ Muse Amy

Don't miss out on our New Release giveaway!

 

I'm a practical gal. I make scrapbook pages because I can see the purpose of them- remembering moments of time and recording history, capturing youth and joy and heart ache, loving family and friends. I also love art- I really do see the value of a piece that brings forth strong emotion but I have yet to really work towards creating art for art's sake. I find it brave and bold those who do.

That being said, my friend Sonia enjoys creating art just for the sake of creation. Her art journals are spectacular and inspire me. They have even inspired me to start a prayer journal. Perhaps more a journal with scriptures and notes to capture the love I have for Jesus and that the Lord has for us.

Here is my VERY first page in my journal. I haven't even given the journal a name yet. Not sure it needs one. Maybe one will come to me later. I used the FAITH line by MOXXIE with a background of yellow paint. A few torn strips of paper glued on and the Bible Versus are already printed on lovely stickers by MOXXIE.

The torn strips reminds me that God does his best work with the broken. Throughout the Bible, those who are sinners and broken are those who God uses for the glory of his kingdom. What an inspiring message because I don't know a single unbroken, perfect human.

(By Sonia)

 

 

My artistic friend Sonia took the same MOXXIE Faith line and created this canvas. I love how the papers are versatile enough to work with a variety of colors. Look at the texture she created. And I get to hang this in my home!

Look at me- I'm making art!!

Usher Concert w/ Muse Amy

These juicy colors on MOXXIE's Fun Run line called for a fun picture. Here is my friend Sarah being a cool mom and escorting her daughter Hailee and 2 friends to an Usher concert. I love that they made custom shirts for the event. Now that's cool!

 

The paint splats on the multi color paper look just like the colors on their shirts. The swosh gives it movement. You might notice that the curve of the swosh is the cut portion of the purple paper. I liked the organic line, so I kept it for the purple. I also misted the background for that extra little pop of color. The speech bubbles are colored felt.

I'll love you forever w/ Muse Amy

I'm loving this new SPRINGTIME line from MOXXIE. It is so bright and cheerful. This picture is of my dear friend Sarah with her 2 kiddos. Aren't they all just lovely. This fresh photo reminded me of a happy day, so I scrapped it in a happy way.

 

I used the book verse, "I'll love you forever, I'll like your for always, As long as I'm living, My baby you'll be." Perhaps it was seeing these kids who were just babies a moment ago looking so grown up that inspired that quote. I had fun mixing the MOXXIE letters with hand journaling and a cork heart for interest in the title. 

 

 

Here is a close up of my blingy flower too. For a touch of fun!

Friends thru the Ages w/ Muse Amy

I met Sarah in the 7th grade when I felt like a nerdy outcast and she was the popular flirt. Despite distance (we both moved in high school), we kept in touch. I was her Maid of Honor and she was mine. This picture is when she came to visit me when my youngest was born. It is so nice to have a friend who knows where you came from and sees the evolution of who you are.

To showcase this photo, I used MOXXIE's Springtime line filled with juicy, happy colors. The vibrancy of the line sings to me of friendship and youth.

I smeared paint on the background, then stamped over with more paint. Layered on the pretty Springtime papers and used MOXXIE letters that coordinate so well. A few embellishments here and there and the page was a breeze.

                              Now...if only spring would come a bit faster.

Christmas Pups w/ Muse Amy

Are you still working on scrapping all those fun pictures you took at Christmas time? Well, Muse Amy is too and she has some wonderful pages to share with you today.
~Moxxie

 

Our dogs are truly members of our family so of course, they need to celebrate Christmas with us...whether they like it or not. I made both pages with MOXXIE's Happy Pawlidays.

In 2000, we have a white and red dog. For this simple page, I added some red paint to anchor the photos and the paper and stickers did the rest of the work for me.

 Well, 13 years later both those beloved pups have passed away and we have 2 dogs again. Somehow, they are white and red again. We bought these doggy elf costumes for the 2 pets above (they hated them) and reused them in 2013 for these 2 pups.

Don't they look like the most unhappy elves ever? I must admit, it cracks me up!!

 

These papers can be used for doggy or kitty Christmas pics or just for Christmas pics without pets. But why? It's so much fun to include your pets...whether they like it or not.

Paintball SPLAT w/ Muse Amy

My son's 11th birthday is this weekend. And his scrappy mama had to make him invites for his party. He wants to go paintball blasting with friends for his birthday party.

MOXXIE's Fun Run paper is a blast- literally. Look at the great color paint splats. Perfect for paintball. I cut the paint splat paper into splat shapes. A bit of inking and hand doodled border and I'm I'm all set!

 Hope they have a blast shooting colorful paint at each other!
