Moxie Fab Thanks! Blog Hop

** FOR CARING HEARTS CARD DRIVE BLOG HOP PLEASE SCROLL DOWN **



Hi everyone and welcome to the biggest blog hop ever! Many of us were saddened when we found out that Cath is stepping down from running Moxie Fab blog. I mean, for us, Moxie Fab = Cath, right? So, we want Cath to know how special she is by throwing a super huge blog hop party. Yep, she means that much to us.

You should have arrive here from my dear friend, Kimberly Crawford blog. If not, you can always go to Moxie Fab World blog for the complete list of the hop participants. 

Cath, my post today totally dedicated to you! :) As many other paper crafter would agree, you definitely have quite an impact on the paper crafting industry. It won't be the same without you. You have a knack to spot all things fabulous, trendy, you encourage people to try something new, to broaden their creativity all the time, and inspired us through all those moxie fab images.

On a personal note, you are simply a lovely, down to earth person. I am so thankful that this hobby of mine connected me to you and that we got to meet in person. I didn't get to spend long enough time with you, but the short time I had was very lovely. You are so warm, sweet and welcoming. You probably don't even know this,  but when you emailed me last year about being Moxie Fabber of the week, you gave me such a boost of confidence that I needed.

So, thank you for all the inspirations, the encouragement. Simply put....

And....



Yep, I need 2 cards to say it all. :)

On my 1st card, I made the cat by freehand shape the wire into cat shape. Left the cat tail hanging free. So, yes, the tail will wiggle if you touch it. For the second card I venture into water-coloring to create the soft look.

Cath, it definitely won't be the same without you. I will miss your Moxie Fab post. Thank goodness for FB. We'll keep in touch. Enjoy your free time, give those adorable puppies of yours a hug from me and wishing you all the very best in whatever you do.

From here, your next stop is Jaclyn Miller. Thank you so much for stopping by here.
