F'n'F Piecing challenge...

At long last I've managed to get my DT card for this weeks Fab'n'Funky challenge on here! This weeks theme is to use your favourite technique! Now I have to say that as I love so many different ones, paper piecing isn't actually my No1 fav but I needed to chose something...so it won! :0)
The other girls on the DT have made some fab cards for this challenge so don't forget to nip across if you have time xx I'm also entering this into this weeks...
Passion for Promarkers - include an animal
Colour Create - Choice of Pastels + Spring or Easter

You Have Been Warned!!!! *.*

Good morning one...or all! :)
A dull and miserable looking day out today, but shhhhh...I'm going to try and sneak a warm and snuggly day inside...all to myself!! Hmmmmm...we'll see!! lol I have some dinners to make for Mum and Dad but other than that...I aim to craft!!! Yay me! :0)
Well...if you fancy doing the same thing, the new challenge at Fab 'n' Funky this week is being sponsored by the wonderful 'Soft Pencil' team. If you've not seen Elizabeth's fantabulous digi images before...well don't forget to take your pennies when you go...I bet you don't leave without at least one image heading towards your 'inbox'!!! You have been warned!!! :0)
A huge 'THANK YOU' to Soft Pencil for allowing the DT to choose an image to use this week...but I can tell you...THAT was a challenge in itself...soooo many to choose from!!! lol ...And yes...my inbox will be busy later too!! Ooops! :)
You don't have to use a Soft Pencil image on your cards...but the 'added extra' this week is to use embossing somewhere on your project.
I used my Cuttlebug 'roses' folder and the image 'Amy, Michu and Ratiny'. Have fun...can't wait to see what you make! :)
I'm going to enter this into the
Passion for Promarkers challenge this week too...their theme is 'All Creatures Great and Small' ...
... Cute Card Thursday challenge...their theme is 'Flowers' ...
...Frosted Designs - Embossing ...
and... Cupcake Craft challenge, as their theme is 'Four Legged and Furry!!! :0)

Fab 'n' Funky...

Gee, I've missed my crafting!! Time has been flying by, and whenever I do manage to sit down at my craft desk...the phone rings, I feel I should be ironing etc, the children need something...or I can't seem to make a thing!!! :o(
BUT...help was at hand! This weeks challenge at Fab 'n' Funky is sponsored by The Stamping Boutique, and they offered the DT a digi image of our choice to work with!! How lucky??? ^.^ The only problem with that was choosing ONE!!!! Eeeek! If you haven't seen all the fantastic images they have then go and have a peek...and join us in our challenge this week!! Oh and btw... the randomly chosen winner will win FIVE digi images of their choice!!! Thanks Tracy x
Now, I'm not really sure that this was the best time to choose an image for a male card (which I always struggle with!) but hey... it's such a great image and I just had to have it!! :)
I have used Nesties to cut an aperture in the card and made a 'spinner' with the coloured image. The papers are from the Sweet pad from DCWV but the train track like pattern seemed to go nicely!I'm going to sneek back to my craft desk now...ssshhhhh!!! ^.^

Fab 'n' Funky...

Well...we've awoken to another huge helping of snow, here in Surrey this morning!! Just as we were all starting to get from A to B again too! So, with the schools closed, and even the children bored of playing in the snow...I feel a crafting session coming on! :0)
Anyway...before I disappear, I'd better do what I came on to do!! This week the Fab 'n' Funky challenge blog has moved!! We have started a new blog 'HERE' ...but are still the same Fab 'n' Funky team :0)
The challenge this week is a sketch with the added theme of 'Birthday', and has a prize giveaway from our very own Lou, as it's her birthday tomorrow!!! :0)
