Christmas @ Fab'n'Funky

Hi everyone,

I hope you are having a good week.  

I'm scheduling my post as always and keeping fingers crossed all goes as planned.  

We are expecting a storm, the remnants of hurricane Patricia 

that could cause power outages from heavy winds and rain. 

I do hope everyone says safe and out of harms way.

Today starts a new challenge at Fab'n'Funky and our host is the lovely Wends. 

and the theme is my favourite "Christmas" 

We are sponsored by the wonderful Inky Impressions who generously

supplied us with our choice of digi to use for the challenge.

I chose to colour the very cute digi called "Marleigha's Reindeer" available here.

I coloured Marleigha with polychromos and used copics on the reindeer.

The DP is from my stash. The corner fern is my favourite Marianne Designs die.

The string of lights is a Cheery Lynn die #B131 and the sentiment is LOTV.

Glossy accents added to the holiday lights.

Firefly Frenzy

Good day everyone and welcome to another blog post, this time for the

Fab 'n' Funky Challenge

The theme for this week selected by our team mate Shirley is 1, 2,  3

1 - image

2 - design papers

3 - embellishments

We are sponsored by the fabulous

 Inky Impressions 

 and  

StampArt by Kathryne

I've used a rubber stamp from Inky Impressions called Nicholas Firefly Frenzy and think he is the perfect image for a young boy who is into bugs...well aren't they all!  I just hope he doesn't mind the pink flower!   My three embellishments are: buttons, banner and fishtail.
I've been hoarding this paper pad. The photo did not pick it up but the flower and grass border on the bottom are actually spot varnished making it very glossy - looks great irl.

Buttons - Basic Grey and Jenni Bowlin Vintage Style 

Fishtail Die - Die-namics

Pennant created using smallest die in the Spellbinders Nested Pennants
