Lou gets sketchy!!

 Morning funky peeps!!

Its my turn to post the little roboty card I made using the fab sketch from da boss!!!! if you haven't already seen the original post from our very own Anice here it is......

Its a great sketch to work with and there are oodles of possibilities which the funkettes have been busy posting throughout the month.

You still have a few more days to get busy with one to join in with the fun and don't forget that if you don't own any funky hand papers yet, Anice makes a Funky Freebie each month so you can use that and be in with the chance to win yourself a download to play with for next months challenge!!! :)

So onto my little cutie pie robot! I used the Craft the Year Away papercraft factory and its November Rain colour way for most of my card, and sneaked in a little bit of the fabulous cog paper from the Funky Seasons cd.

The little teeny cog at the bootom of the flap is holding down a cute little surprise down there....

  Awwww and here he is on a cute little springy thingy so he just pops out at ya when you open the flap. (Needless to say, Little mo loved this card and promptly stole it!!!!!)

I made the 'Have a robotastic birthday' paper ribbon in the workspace part in  Craft The Year Away, its so cool, and I love that you stll don't have to worry about what colours to useas Anice co-ordinated them too when she did all the designing, she is sooooo smart!!! I added a bit of black ink to everything and hey presto!!!

So, please come and join in the fun this month, we love to see your creations. All you need to do is get busy with your funky hand papers or the freebie I mentioned earlier and then add your take on Anice's sketch using our magical little linky below...easy!!!!

Thank you for popping in on us! hugs Lou xx

GET FUNKY! SKETCH

Hi Everyone

Jules here with my take on Anice's gorgeous sketch!!  Thanks Anice xx

I don't know about you but I love working with a sketch .. ..

it takes half of the thinking and planning out of making a project .. ..

and also encourages you to do something that is probably

a little different to your normal layout style!!

All of the Funkettes have had a fun time with the sketch

and I hope you have had chance to see what everyone has come up with.

One sketch and so many different ideas!!

Here is my take on the sketch

and here is Anice's lovely sketch

The papers I have used have come from one of the original CD's .. .. .. V.Funky

Don't you just love the way the green and lilac papers looked like they have been embossed? 

But they haven't .. that is how they look when you print them out!!  Just gorgeous.

You can find the V.Funky CD here.

The only thing that wasn't from the CD is the heart .

This was cut on my Cricut machine from a leftover piece of kraft card. 

It was then run through my Cuttlebug inside an embossing folder which had previously
been rubbed with an ink pad to give the heart a bit of a grungy look. 
I then just rubbed the same ink pad around the edges.

There is still time for you to play along and make a creation using Anice's sketch .. ..

and you might even end up as the winner of a download of your choice!!! 
You don't have to make a card.  It can be an ATC, a scrapbook layout, a tag .. ..
whatever you fancy providing we can see the sketch in what you have made.

The only rules are that you have to use at least one Funky product on your creation .. ..

but if you don't have any then don't panic .. ..

there is a free paper you can use which you will find here.

I hope you have chance to play along and link up .. ..

the challenge is open until the 14th July

so plenty of time to Get Funky!!

Have a good weekend everyone

Love Jules xx

Get Funky with our sketch challenge

Hiya, it's my (Jackie) to add my cards to the post. I actually made two as we were introduced to a yummy new download from Anice. Anyway, it's the bosses (Anice) turn to set the challenge this month and as you will see from previous posts she has given us a sketch to work with. It is up to you how you interpret the sketch but we MUST be able to see it, turn it on it's side, use it upside down, it's up to you, as long as we can see the basic sketch.  Also  you need to use at least one Funky Hand product but there is a new Funky Freebie paper, as always, on the website www.funkyhand.com just incase you don't own any Funky Hand products yet.

So now for the sketch

And my cards

This first card was created using papers and a digital image from the Funky Hand CD Colour Me Happy and the second one was made using the latest download collection Tea's Up. Hope you like them and will play along with us again this month. Add your project to the link below and we can pop by and see what you have been up to.

Amanda's sketch card......for daddy!

Morning all and welcome to my (Amanda) turn to show my card. (anice's original post is here)The download I used for this card is the Minty Madness one and it was one I bought when it first came out and have used it LOADS! Mint green and black....who could resist?

All the elements on this card apart from the letters (which I cut with the cuttlebug) come with the download. There are loads of different sized stars, gorgeous sentiments and a funky alphabet included.

As you can see I flipped Anice's sketch over. So feel free to flip it reverse it, turn it, whatever you like as long as the basic sketch is still visible!!

Please remember our only rule is to use at least one item from Funky Hand. If you don't have anything yet then there is a scrummy free paper available each month. You can downlaod it here

So have fun and pop back and join in the Funky Hand Fun!! (you have until the 14th of July to get your entry in before the new challenge on the 15th)
