I Love You Sew!

Morning all, Tammy here with another post! As you know it is a month long celebration of LOVE and to celebrate we have all of the downloads in the LOVE section on offer for just £1! For todays card I used the I Love You Sew themed download. Keeping my card CAS I stuck to just 2 different pieces. 

I added a strip of black with a scallop punched border, then die cut some pink hearts to over lay. I hand stamped the sentiment directly onto the card (and then stopped holding my breath incase it was wonky!!) finished with a couple of small pink pearls I love the CAS look! 

Thats all from me, remember to check back tomorrow for more inspiration!

Morning everyone,

Its Lou in with a post for you all this morning! Before I waffle on too much I just wanted to remind you that all the downloads in the LOVE section of the shop are just £1 in celebration of the season of love!! he he he!! but there are some super downloads in there and they are good for all year round.

We get through a whole tonne of post it notes in our house (....because little Mo loves them.....and because I am forever loosing my little pad of them!!!) so when I saw this cut file in the silhouette store I just knew it would go perfectly with the Huge Funky Love download.

Now, its a wordbook download too but the bonus is these delicious A4 papers that co-ordinate with it too and it is one of my favourite downloads ever.Here's a piccy for you to peek at of all the lovely bits in this download..

I always print on one side and then pop the papers back through, printing a different design from the download on the other side to give myself a double sided paper, that way you get a lovely contrast when you do things like little rips or turns like I have in the top right corner.

Thank you for popping in! our Tammy will be in tomorrow to show you something else.

Welcome to the month of Love...

Hello everyone,
It's February the first already, can you believe it? As it's the month of love, I thought I would show some love to all the fabby Funky Handers out there and offer you a month long treat.

The Huge Funky Love Wordbook collection is one of the best selling Funky Hand downloads.  If you haven't tried making wordbooks before this will be the perfect time to give it a go! If you haven't a clue what a wordbook even is, take a look at this video  http://www.funkyhand.com/papercraft-demonstrations/how-to-make-a-wordbook/?chapter=1  The download has 26 letter pages and 0-9 number pages.  As well as that,  there are 6 matching backing papers included.

Hello

Happy New Year!

Gosh, it's been a while since we popped by to post some of our Funky Hand makes, hasn't it?  We will try and be better now the festivities are over. 

 Lets face it, we could probably all do with a bit of creative inspiration to get us crafting again -  I'm always relieved to put away the most Christmassy stuff, and I'm desperate to craft something different I seem to have forgotten how to make anything without baubles, trees, snowflakes stockings ........ but maybe that's just me......

Anyway, I needed a little gift box to put a birthday present in, so I made  a little pillow box and matching birthday card using the 

Hearts and Flowers download

Would you believe that when I went to save my photos I discovered that I'd never made anything with these designs before?  So even after several years of designing with Fabulous Funky Hand I can still find "new" treasures.  This is a little tip for you too - pop across to the shop and see what's there that you've missed - it might be just the kick-start you need to get crafting

I started by printing the main design on one side of a sheet of A4 card and another on the other side - so that both the inside and outside of the finished box would look pretty.  Then I resized and printed a selection of the designs on both sides of another sheet of card so that I had plenty of choice for the trimming the box and making the birthday card

As you can see, I put lots of dies and punches to work making these, then I raided my embellishment stash to find matching net, ribbon, gems and pearls to finish it off

Hearts and Flowers download

The colours were such a refreshing change to use after all the festive ones that I really felt energised and ready to do some more crafting.  I've been busy exploring and printing off more papers from the various downloads and CDs and wading through my Pinterest boards for all those ideas "saved to try later"!

Here are the card and box together in one last really dreadful photo - I really should learn to check the images to make sure I have good photos before putting the things in the post! Ah well, such is life

Come back soon for more Funky Hand Crafting - and if you've been using Funky Hand goodies in your own crafting, we'd really love to see so leave us a link so we can pop by.
