Moody Monday + a Tropical Twist! July Mood Board Challenge Inspiration


Hello sweet crafty friends! πŸ’Œ
Moody Monday was on fire this week—and no, not because of the heat (though our little penguin is soaking up the sun)! ☀️🐧


During the live, I created this whimsical tropical card inspired by the Not2Shabby July Mood Board Challenge, and y’all—it’s giving vacay vibes meets paper play. I mean, look at our chill little penguin living his best life under a palm leaf with hibiscus blooms in full swing! 🌴🌺

Missed the live? Don’t sweat it! You can catch the full replay and craft along with me right here on YouTube. I walk you through how I brought this interactive beauty to life, with tips, giggles, and good old-fashioned crafty camaraderie.

For this card I used the Not2Shabby Chillin' in the Tropics 6x6 paper pad, and the coordinating ephemera pack.  You can grab yours here (this is my affiliate link)
