Christmas at Fab'n'Funky

Hello everyone,

Today it's time for another Christmas challenge, hosted by our lovely N-Eva at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #517

Yes, I've been shopping again, this time with a purchase of Birch Press Design dies called Trina Snowflake.  This set comes with 3 dies that coordinate to make this lovely snowflake. I've used some starkly blue paper along with navy and gold.  The sentiment is a Memory Box die. Frame from Spellbinder. As is usually the case with shiny makes, this looks so much better in real life.

Roses, Roses, Roses

 Good day folks,

Hope you are enjoying the weekend.

I've a just for fun card today for you and it's another slimline.

This one involved a lot of colouring, both with pencils and markers. I was not happy with how it was going so just kept on adding pencil layers until I was somewhat satisfied.  Hubby liked it. The stamp is from Stampendous, banner die and sentiment stamp, Lawn Fawn.

** No squares at Fab'n'Funky **

 Hello everyone,

Hope your are all doing well.  Weather has changed again so we are back into winter.  
I bundle up and take walks along the lake shore. I did get a glimpse of the snowy owl
 perched up high watching all the folks enjoying the day. Interesting there were no Canada Geese, ..could it be our visitor from the arctic keeping them away?

Today starts a new challenge at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #515

where I am hosting and have chosen the theme of

"No Square Cards"

I've created another slimline card for this challenge. These little gnomes are from an MFT stamp and die set.  I've coloured them with Copics.  The background was made using Distress Oxide ink.  I still need some practice with backgrounds so I'm going to try using my brayer on the next card.
