Brads Galore

Happy Wednesday all!

Well, that's the week in half, just a couple more days to go until the weekend. Okay, maybe I'm a LITTLE optimistic here ;)

Anyway, another Wednesday also means another Challenge at Fab 'n Funky. This week was my turn to pick a theme and I settled on "Calling All Brads". I am sure that, like me, you have industrial amounts of brads in your stash, wasn't this all the rage way back when? Anyway, time to use 'em up! We are sponsored this week by Kenny K and the DT got to use some of their wonderful images to work with.

Here's my make:

Materials:
* Kenny K Olympic Runner digi, coloured with Spectrum Noirs & Promarkers
* Echo Park For the Record DPs plus some scraps
* Marianne Design Tower of Pisa & Joy Crafts Vintage Flourishes Grass Border Dies
* Vintage Photo & Forest Moss Distress Inks
* Eline's Vintage sentiment stamp
* Washi tape & brads from stash

I'm really so happy with my Tower of Pisa die that I bought in the sale last week, perfect for my 'ancient' card theme!

Challenges:
* Delicious Doodles (Diecuts and Punches)
* The Squirrel and the Fox (Use Embellishments) 4 brads & washi
* A Little Bit Crazy (Man Up!)
* De Creatieve Zebra (Mannenkaart)
* QKR Stampede (Anything Goes)

Is it a bird......Is it a plane.......No, it's......

Supermom! Well, the image is called supermom anyway, personally she reminds me a whole lot of those iconic WWII posters with Rosie the Riveter, but I think we can agree this lady is one tough bird! She's still dressed to perfection of course, because you can totally kick butt and look gorgeous at the same time ;)

A perfect image for our new Fab 'n Funky challenge, as we are asking for your "Spring Colours" projects this week. I used up a lot of scraps that were lying around for this card. Hope you can join us!

Materials:
* Kenny K Supermom digi, coloured with Promarkers & Spectrum Noirs
* Prima Sparkling Spring DP and assorted scraps
* Scalloped Circle punch & Eline Vintage Sentiment stamp set
* Tumbled Glass & Forest Moss Distress Ink
* Gem & pearls from stash
