Anice xx

Thank You!

It's my turn (Jackie) now to wish you all a happy new year and to show my card for our December challenge (it seems a long time ago now!) which is to make a thank you card. There is still time to take part in the challenge but not much as it finishes tomorrow. There is the Funky Freebie paper too if you don't have any Funky Hand products and it's available here

I love this download and it definitely makes for a very quick and simple card.

Make sure you pop to Anice's Blog Funky Hand Thoughts on Saturday morning to see news of our first BLOG HOP of the year to launch not one but two fantastic new downloads created by our wonderful leader. The winner will receive a copy of each download so you don't even have to make a decision as to which one you would like!

See you on Saturday.

Amanda's thankyou

Morning all and welcome to the last few days of this month's Get Funky Challenge. The new challenge starts on the Funky Fifteenth so just a few days left to enter for this months Thankyou Challenge set by the gorgeous Anice.

My card was made using the fabulous funky freebie paper that Anice made for the challenge, it's really a lovely paper to work with, aren't the colours just so lush? The freebie paper is available to download here. The letters were simply cut out and matted onto some white card, and layered with candy pink card and the paper. I've used a pre-cut scalloped card and added just a scrap of ric rac and a cutie bag charm.

Please remember our only rule here at Get Funky is to use at least one Funky Hand item on your creation. You can make whatever you want : cards, scrapbook layouts, gifts, pictures, tags.......literally anything your wee heart desires, and you can enter as many different challenges as you like. Sadly though if your item doesn't have a Funky Hand item on it you won't be entered into the prize draw for the download of your choice (I honestly don't know how you'd choose!! and keep your eyes peeled for a couple of new downloads coming soon)

Hope you can join us before the end of the challenge :o)

Hugs

Amanda :o)

Thank You!

Hello! Jenny here! It's time for me to share my 'Thank You' project with you...

I've used this month's Funky Freebie in two different sizes...

The letters come from the smaller version, which I made by shrinking the freebie in Photoshop and the squares come from the freebie in its original A4 size. I've layered up both with 3d foam. The flower comes from the Shabby Saturday Download. 

I do hope you've been enjoying this month's challenge and that you've been able to make some useful thank you cards! There have been some fabulous entries so far and if you've not yet joined in you still have time. You can find all the details on how to enter here.

Amanda will be here on the 11th with some more 'Thank You' inspiration for you...so make sure you pop back here then! 

Stay Funky!

Jenny

Ruth and Betty say 'Thank You!'

Happy New Year! It's mine (Ruth) turn to provide some inspiration for the current challenge which is:

Thank You

I got rather carried away with Betty and made 6 of these little beauties and they are little - 90cm square! Only because I have some rather bargain envelopes that I got before Christmas and they fit perfectly inside!

Don't forget that to be eligible for the prize you MUST use at least one Funky Hand product in your creation and if you've not got anything then Anice creates a special download for each challenge that is perfectly themed and you can snag it HERE - so no excuse not to join in!

I've stamped Our Betty (from Your Special Day set) onto some off-cuts of card that matched the card blank (and also the tag) and coloured her with Promarkers and added a little glitter glue to her dress. The tag has been handwritten and I've used ribbon and embroidery thread from my stash. Nice, quick and easy to make!

Good luck with the challenge and please remember to use a Funky Hand product!

Allison's Thank You

Happy New Year everyone and for my card this month I used the wonderful freebie Anice is giving you to help you join in- and it's fabulous

This month's Funky 15th Freebie is available here

I just cut elements from the paper for my card this time and it's quick and simple especially if you have lots of people of thank at the one time.

REMEMBER- if you are joining in you must use at least ONE Funky Hand product on your creation and you have up until the 14th of this month to play along

Just pop your link below and Good Luck
