Moxie Fab Thanks Blog Hop! We Love You, Cath!

Image is by Mo Manning for Penny Black and is called Her Heart.

Hola!  Welcome to my second post of the day and to the largest blog hop in the history of blog hops!  Why so many?  Because we're showing some love to a wonderful lady who has inspired us in so many ways...Cath Edvalson of Moxie Fab World.  

Though I never participated in the Moxie Fab World challenges, I visited frequently to see what inspiring treasures Cath had to share and to see the wondrous creations of the artists she showcased.  I was never disappointed and always found loads of loveliness to quench my creative thirst.  Cath's impeccable artists' eye always managed to hone in on just what I needed to kickstart a stalled project.  

Sadly, Cath is stepping down from Moxie Fab and there are crafty hearts breaking all over the world.  Today, we have united to show her just what she has meant to us over the years and to give her a send off befitting a Queen.  Thank you Cath, we love you!

With 285 hoppers listed, you're journey may take you a few days, but there are some of the finest paper artists in the world listed here and you will undoubtedly see some amazing creations as you hop around.  If you're following the hop order, you should have arrived from Unity Stamp Company.  You're next stop is Jennie Harper's blog where you will definitely find something fabulous awaiting you.  If you get lost along the way, you can always pop into Moxie Fab World to get back on track.  I have included the full hop list, as well.  It's a doozy...lol! 

Thanks so much for stopping by and joining us today in celebrating Cath :)

A Bombshell Birthday Celebration!

Today I am happy and honored to be a participant in a very special celebration!  Welcome to the first annual "Happy Birthday Shannon Blog Hop"!  Shannon is the owner/creator/artist extraordinaire of Bombshell Stamps.  Bombshell Stamps was my very first design team when I started blogging and I was and still am completely enchanted with their fabulous collection of images consisting of classic pin ups, Dia de los Muertos, and tattoo inspired art.  Absolutely wonderful stuff!  Please, please, please check out their site here.  You will love them!  By the way, they have an awesome blog, too!

I was truly torn on which image to use, because I LOVE them all, but because Shannon's birthday runs right next to Dia de los Muertos I opted for Rose's Portrait.  She is a real Latin beauty and I think she works well for a Day of the Dead theme.  After finishing this card I came to one conclusion, I MUST use my Bombshell Stamps more often!

There are LOTS of lovely and talented folks participating in today's hop.  You will be awed by their amazing creations.  Just go through the list and prepared to be wowed!

Happy Birthday, Shannon!
