Moxie Fab World: Plum Crazy!!!

iheartart — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 22:41:41 +0000

Here is my entry for Cath’s Moxie Fab World Plum Crazy Challenge!

Before this year, I never touched purple anything…lol! It reminded me too much of being 7 and having purple everything ALL OVER AGAIN! However, I do admit, I have been enjoying my fair share of Aubergine and Plum this season! I think it brings an instant vintage chic feel to anything: clothes, cards, scrapbook pages, jewelry! The bracelet above was my inspiration for the challenge! I decided to make one of my previous cards a little bit better:

Plum Crazy in Love

The Old card:

The old card

I encourage everyone to get out some cards they made in the past and to tweek them!!! I’m certain they were all good ideas at the time, but just need a little renovating to make them WOWaful!
