Wordbooks!!

This month over at Get Funky the fabby dabby Lou has set the challenge of

WordBooks

I have made this one for a friend to give at a wedding.  I have used the easy peasy lemon squeezy wordbook tab on the Wishes and Kisses cd and the paper collection is Hello Baby.  For me the fact that you can personalise them so much is why I love wordbooks - you could have mr&mr or mrs&mrs if you need to, I bet those kinds of cards are hard to find! 

For those who don't have any of the Funky Hand cds or downloads Anice has made a fantastic Funky Freebie so you can still join in.  This month it is a set of letters so you can cut them out and add them to strips of card to make a wordbook.......simples.

As always the prize is the download of your choice, maybe if you've caught the Wordbook bug you can download one of the gorgeous wordbook downloads, there are plenty to choose from and even some Christmas ones (I know I know I'm sorry!!)

Please remember our 1 rule is to use a Funky Hand item on your wordbook

daisy time.......

Anice at Funky Hand has released a fantastic new download called Daisy Day It's £3.49 and includes 20 papers, upper and lower case alphabets, and some daisy digi images. Now where else would you get all that for £3.49?

I loved the golden colour of this paper. The flower is cut from another sheet, and the butterfly comes from the Flutterby Flowers download.

Challenges:

Crafty Cardmakers ~ Things with Wings

Make it Monday~ Anything Goes
Paper Pretties ~ make a square card

Crafters Companion Monthly challenge ~ Gold

As soon as I think of daisies I think of this pic of my wee Lily, she is almost 9 now, but in this pic she is almost 2. We were out for a walk and she picked soooo many daisies lol. To make this 12x12 scrapbook page I stitched the squared on to look like patchwork. Awwwww isn't my bairn cute???

Challenges:

Ladybug Crafts ~ Anything goes

Catered Crop~ Pink

Anything Goes at Funky Hand

Ok I have been a rrrrreeeeaaaaalllllyyyy bad blogger haven't I?  I need a slapped hand.........  With it being the school holidays every spare minute apart from working was spent with the kids trying to dodge the showers and find some fun stuff to do.  Luckily Lily went back to school last week so hopefully normal service should be resumed soon lol

This month at Get Funky the lovely lou has set an easy peasy lemon squeezy theme of "Anything Goes Using Funky Hand"  How simple is that? Anything you can think of so long as it uses a Funky Hand item on it!! And if you haven't got any Funky Hand stash then Anice has made a lush freebie paper click here to download it.

My card was made with the gorgeous jaquard paper from the Wishes and Kisses cd rom. The image is also on the cd.  This has to be my favourite paper on the cd and wow it looks lush in all the different colours, there's one perfect for any occassion.  I love the cream lace I used on this card, in fact as I have very little left you might never see it again......I am scared to finish it lol

Please remember we only have one rule at get Funky ~ to use at least one Funky Hand item on your make.  The prize is the download of your choice, and as you know there are loads to choose from!

Go to the Get Funky page and click on the blue froggy to enter your creation, or if you don't have a blog why not enter through the Funky Hand facebook page  Just like I said........easy peasy lemon squeezy

The big 60!!

The lovely Jackie is in the hot seat this month over and Get Funky and she has set you a challenge of "Just a number"  Basically there must be a number on it, text is ok but images are banned this month!!

For my sample I have made a wodbook for my step dad's big birthday in a few weeks.  It will actually be his birthday card so not exactly a wordbook.  He is a huge Dunfermline Athletic fan so I just had to use the team colours and they just happen to be a combo I love.  I used the Wishes and Kisses cd and the fab wordbook maker that is just so simple to use :o)

As always the only rule at Get Funky is to use a Funky Hand product on your creation.  We don't mind what you make, how many challenges you enter with it and what else you use on the item, but if there's not a Funky Hand paper or image on it then you won't be entered into the prize draw for the Download of your choice from the Funky Hand website (and there is a new scrummy download coming soon so you really don't want to miss that!)  To make this open to all Anice provides a free paper every month especially with the challenge in mind and it is available to download here

Can't wait to see what you make for this month's challege :o)

sketchy love at Get Funky

Anice has made a fabby dabby sketch for us this month at Get Funky  I do love a good sketch, card just seem to make themselves when you have a really good sketch to follow :o)

I used the new Wishes and Kisses cd for the papers and images on my card, it really is a fantastic cd, something for everything on there!!  The hearts have some glossy accents on to make them stand out a wee bit, the ribbon and flowers are from stash as are the heart gems.

Don't where the time has gone this last few weeks, there seems to have been no time for crafting or blogging :(  Thats work for you eh? Back later with some more bits from the new cd :)

Polkadots and flowers

WOW isn't this weather just stunning?  I got a wee smidgen burnt yesterday in the garden, you'd think I would know by now to not stay out so long wouldn't you?  Anyway, over at Get Funky the theme is:

"Polkadots and Flowers"

I have made a new home card for some friends who have just moved.  The paper is from the Craft the Year Away cd, the template for the easel card is from 12 crafters crafting and the image is a wee sneaky peek from the new Funky Hand cd coming out later this month.......sshhhh don't tell the boss I showed you though ok?

Its another fabby day today so I am off to see about doing something with the kidlets :o)

Testing testing

Have just downloaded blogger for my phone and thought I'd better try it out :-)

Here's a couple of new pics of the kids. It's been a while since I shared any
