Morning everyone!

Its my turn to post over on the Dream Team blog today and seeing as we spent our saturday on Little Mo's sweetie stall raising pennies for our local RSPCA at the fun dog show I just had to use  Bella hearts Bronte. There were so many gorgeous dogs there and Mo loved it. He raised a whopping £27.20 selling his little 20p mixes and 10p lollies and you would honestly of thought that penny jar he took to them at the end was full of gold, he was so proud of himself.

We are off to the hospital today for Mo's tummy appointment and I am so hoping it has got a bit better and they don't need to look into surgery so keep your fingers crossed for us!!

And don't forget!! over at Mo's Digital Pencil its....

Feed the birds!!

Hi everyone!! 

Its time for me to share another make for Funky Daze month using the Funky Daze original CD ROM. This CD is actually one of my first ever buys from Funky Hand all those years ago! 

I used a Silhouette store box cutfile with the Monday's Child colourway. I am still in the super spring celebration mood and these colours were just perfect for the job!! I made a little birdy treats box. This is actually one of my dad's 60th birthday pressies, he LOVES feeding the birds so I thought it was the perfect way to present the seed.

So, whats on the CD you ask?? From the cool blues and greens of Monday Morning to the vibrant pink and black of Saturday shopping you are sure to find a collection of backing papers that will be perfect for your next craft project, papers and wordbooks all ready for you to print and go!!!

Baby feets.....awww!!

Hi everyone!! 

I'm back with another make for Funky Daze month using the Funky Daze original CD ROM. This CD is actually one of my first ever buys from Funky Hand all those years ago! I am so proud to of been on the Funky Hand design team for a number of years now, Anice's papers just rock.

I used my trusty silhouette to cut out the teeny feet for the card in the scraps of paper from my make I shared on yesterday. Then I embossed them with my embossing tool and foam mat and glued them on with my hot glue gun so they keep their dimension!!! too cute!! I love that blue and brown colour combo (... and its always really handy that all the papers in each colourway match up for use as it stops my brain hurting!! lol!!) a few white gel pen dots on the Baby word and a bit of ink around the edges and it was done!!

New Home....

Papers- Huge Funky Love from Funky Hand.

Box card file- Home Sweet Home by Lori Whitlock.

Morning all!! 

I had a new home card to make for my mum's crisis counselor. She has helped my mum such a lot through her depression that I wanted it to be something a bit special so I hit the Funky Hand papers for my favourite download, Huge Funky Love. 

The little starry papers are just so pretty. i went for a good old double sided printing session with the pinky ones on one side and the light brown ones on the other side so I could mix and match them around for the different sections of the box.

I used my promarkers to colour up the little house roof and trees an added some ink along the edges of the fence and clouds to make them pop.

Thank you so much for popping in!

Loved up post it note holder...

Papers- Huge Funky Love.

Post it note holder- SlL Store cut file.

Morning everyone,

Its my turn to post over on the Get Funky blog 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.

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! I'll be back in a while with my DTDF blog share too so you get 2 lots of Lou's today!!!!
