Challenge #29

will be slightly delayed as I (Lou) am slightly distracted at the moment ! My baby sister (!) has just had her 2nd baby and a good friends husband was unfortunately run over, so things have been a bit hectic.

The challenge will be showing on THURSDAY and apologies for any delay.

Also many thanks for all the DT entries. The F'n'F DT have had fun looking at you all (how voyeuristic!) and we will make an announcement shortly.

Many thanks for your patience and see you on Thursday,

Lou

DT person(s) wanted!!!

Hi everyone,

We decided to do a separate post about the DT position(s) for Fab'n'Funky Challenges as we felt things maybe a little confusing when we crammed the information in our challenge post.

Ok where to begin . . . we are a small, friendly DT who democratically choose everything about the weekly challenges together. Previous DT experience is not necessary so please do feel that you cannot apply without this experience.

New challenges are posted every Wednesday morning and you will be required to post your completed project by the previous Tuesday night (at the latest). Most weeks the challenge blog has been generously sponsored by different companies and on occasion, we are issued with items from said companies to use in our own projects for that relevant week.

If you are interested in becoming one of our "Fab'n'Funky" family, please leave a link to your blog in the comments section, so that we can come and have a good nose . . . hee, hee, hee! Alternatively please contact us via email and we will endeavour to answer your questions ASAP. Please can we ask that you put "Fab'n'Funky" DT position in the subject line.

We are looking forward to getting to know you all better,

Lou, Andrea, Jilly and Ginny

Challenge #27 - Summer in colour ! !


Now that the sun has been shining in the UK for a while, we have got into the summer vibe here at "Fab'n'Funky" and have decided that this week challenge will have a summer theme! Before we begin with this weeks challenge, we would like to say a big thank you to everyone who joined us last week . . . we thoroughly enjoyed sharing all your gorgeous "eye candy".

Now we have chosen the adorable Miss Random.Org to choose the lucky winner of the Softpencil digi images and she has chosen . . .



Many congratulations and please email Elizabeth directly putting "Fab'n'Funky" challenge winner in the subject line.



Now this weeks prize is being offered by one of our DT, Lou to celebrate her 20th Wedding Anniversary (which is this today). Lou has put together a selection of goodies (photo to follow) from stamps to stickers plus a sprinkling of embellishments for one lucky winner and to win this fab prize, all you need to do is enter this weeks challenge . . .


"Summer in Colour"


Please use the picture above as your starting point which was chosen because of its warm, summer vibe. Your inspiration could be certain elements from the picture ie: the palm tree, the flowers or even use the colours as there are a wide choice within the picture. Finally you could even recreate a beach themed project.

As always the DT have created their own "Summer Vibe" projects

Challenge #26 - "Piece that paper!"

Another week whizzes by and in the UK, it's Whitsun half term which normally means poor weather as the children are on their hols . . . however the sun has finally decided to come out to play and it looks like we could be in for better weather this end of the week! Fingers crossed !

Now the lucky winner of last weeks prize chosen by Mrs Random.Org was no:1 and that is . . . .
Shell from The Camels Hump

Many congratulations from everyone at "Fab'n'Funky" and please email Dustin from Doodle Dragon Studio to claim your prize putting Fab 'n' Funky Challenge winner in the subject line.

Now as it's the start of a brand new month, this means that this weeks sponsor is . .

"Hello everyone! my name is Elizabeth Pujalka and I´m the illustrator and designer behind Softpencil - Digital Stamps, home of Michu and his lovely friends, where you can find cute illustrations for your crafting needs.

My illustrations are a homage to the Nature and their creatures, where a sweet child, a simple flower or a fragile animal become protagonists. I invite you to know my whimsical world plenty of gorgeous characters and to enjoy creating with them!"
Now the challenge this week is one we all probably do automatically . . .

"Piece that paper"

which translated means "paper piecing", (well do try and "DO" posh here every now and then!) The DT have each used a Softpencil digi image which they have paper pieced but you could use a stamped image or another digi image. If you use a Softpencil image in your project this week, we will enter you twice into this weeks randomly chosen draw to win some more digi images from Elizabeth.

Now lets get things rolling and here is the DT's projects:
