*** One for the Boys***

Good morning everyone,

Today starts a new challenge at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #548

where our lovely Buffy has chosen the theme "Masculine"

After clearing out a lot of my stash earlier this year I convinced myself I did not need any more craft goodies and held off for almost 3 months...but oh..when I saw these cute panda's at Whimsy I broke down.  I have used it here for a masculine card but can see many uses for this trio.  The paper is a very old Basic Grey boxer that I've been hoarding. Fingers shook on first cut into the 12x12 sheet. 



I would like to enter the following challenges:


Thank you so much for visiting today.  
Stop by the blog and see the fabulous inspiration from my team mates and play along
...we'd love to see you.

Hugs, Pat K xx

*** An Oldie ***

Hello folks,

Hope your weekend is going well.   
Rain for us to today making it the perfect time to curl up with a good book.     

 I'm here to tell you that today starts a new challenge at 

Sweet Stampin Challenge

where we would like you to "Use Your Older Stash"

I have so much stash to choose from and settled on colouring with Copics one of my favourite Penny Black stamps that has not seen ink for over 5 years.  The cheeky sentiment is an MFT stamp.

****Heartfelt***

 Hello everyone,

Today starts a new Challenge at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #547

hosted by our lovely N-Eva

with a theme of "Hand Coloured Image"

I have chosen to colour with copics and pencils a sunflower digital image created by
Poppy Power by Marcella Hawley called "Sunflower Power".   This very thoughtful designer created this image to help the wonderful people of Ukraine.  All proceeds go toward "Sunflowers for Peace".  I purchased the Sunflower Peace set separately and this image was free.
For me like many others Ukraine is never far from my thoughts. 

I did make a bit of a mess when adding the background.  I fussy cut the image on scrap paper and masked onto the flowers.  I think it might be my choice of ink that I'm not pleased with.  Will have to do some research to perfect this technique.

Thanks for visiting today.
Hope you can play along with us..

Hello everyone,

Today starts a new challenge at

Fab'n'Funky Challenge #546

"Die Cuts and/or Stencils"

I found this Tim Holtz stamp after doing a small clean up of my craft room and decided to show him some love. Coloured with Copics and then die cut.  Dot stencil used for the background and grass stencil for the base.  




Thanks for visiting today.  I do hope you can join us..you have two weeks
