Polkadots & Flowers with Wishes & Kisses!

Hello! Jenny here and I'm just popping in to share my 'Polkadots & Flowers' make with you...


I've used elements from the fabulous new CD Wishes & Kisses as the focus of my card - you can get your hands on the CD here tomorrow (Thurs 31st May). I've used some spotty paper and combined it with a fabulous flower template - both of which you'll find on the CD. I finished of by framing the flowers with some paper scraps - the eagle eyed amongst you will notice the new pattern on that paper too! ;)


I do hope you've been enjoying this month's challenge so far. If you're yet to play along please remember our one and only rule - use at least one Funky Hand product in your creation. Don't forget you can get your hands on the Funky Freebie here! You can find all the other details on how to enter this month in the challenge launch post, written by Ruth, here!

Lou will be up next with some more polkadotty & flowery inspiration for you so please pop back here on 2nd June!

Stay Funky!
Jenny

Kathy's Spotty House of Flowers

Hello, it's me, Kathy, back again already....
This time I'm here with my projects for our new Hostess Ruth's challenge:

Polkadots and Flowers

To join in with us this month, all you need to do is make any project you like using those ingredients - as long as you use at least one Funky Hand product you'll be in with a chance of winning this month's free download prize.  There's even a perfectly matched freebie to download, so even if you don't have your Funky Stash yet there's no excuses! 

I've used papers from the CD Craft the Year Away to make my card for this time.  I needed a "new home" card and thought it would work nicely with the dots and flowers of this month's Funky Fifteenth
I've printed out the polka-dot paper in 2 sizes using the workspace on the Papercraft Factory CD - I do love playing about with that facility!  I used my Craft Robo to cut the house and the flowers and then used a quilling tool to add some shape to the petals
Materials
Papers: Papercraft Factory CD "Craft the Year Away", this collection is called "September Song"
Tiny mauve gems, pc generated sentiment, Inks
Tools:
Spelbinders dies to cut aperture and surround,
Spelbinders die for sentiment piece
Craft Robo templates for little house and flowers

I cut far too many flowers and it seemed a shame to bin them. so I made a super-simple "bonus" card too.
I used a (MS) border punch along a leftover piece of the polka-dot paper, added a length of Seam binding with a knot on it, then just glued the flowers along the ribbon and added more of the mauve gems and a sentiment sticker/rub on to finish

We're looking forward to seeing your creative projects this month - please don't forget 
or your entry won't qualify.

That's all from me - there'll be another Funkette along in a couple of days to share another project, so please come back soon

Happy Crafting!!

New Challenge: Polkadots and Flowers!

It's the Funky Fifteenth and that means its time for another challenge!  I (Ruth) am your hostess this month and the theme I have picked is:

Polkadots and Flowers

So as long as those two staple ingredients feature along with the most important product - a Funky Hand item - then you can enter our challenge!  Each month Anice provides a freebie that you can download and use for the challenge as it fits!  So even if you don't own anything Funky Hand yet, snag the download and use it on your creation and enter our challenge! The winner gets to choose a download of their choice from the store.

For my sample I've made a posh gift bag by using a handbag template (a die cut shape that I've had for absolutely ages!) and I've used the Rainbow Polkadots download and added the flowers using Spellbinder Nestabilities (used different sized dies) - the papers are various bits of angel hair and tissue paper I had in my stash.  If you want to know more just pop over to my blog to find out!


Don't forget you MUST USE A FUNKY HAND product in your creation otherwise we cannot consider you for the top prize or our top three.

The rest of the Design Team will be along at regular intervals until the next challenge is set on 15 June - so you have from now until 14 June to enter.  Good luck and don't forget to use a Funky Hand product!
