Moxie Fab Trigger Tuesday - Fall is in the Bag





I've played along on a number of Moxie Fab challenges, but this is my first Trigger Tuesday entry. This is partly because the timeframe is pretty compressed for me, and partly because if I'm not immediately struck or 'triggered' on a challenge, I usually don't enter.

This week I immediately had a vision for what I wanted to create, and the card really came together quickly.

I cut 3/4" strips of cardstock from colors that I found in the trigger photo, and then adhered them to a base piece of cardstock on a diagonal.

For the off-white front piece, I punched three circles using a 1" punch, and then cut the 'sticks' using my craft knife. I actually created a template for the 'lollipop' shape using a scrap piece of paper. Then I used that to determine the spacing of the images and traced the stick portion so I could easily cut it with the craft knife.

The sentiment is adhered to the blue piece of cardstock, and then scored to wrap around the off-white piece with the lollipop cut outs.

I like how graphic and modern it feels. Hopefully the folks at Moxie Fab World will too!
