Hi Everyone
Well if everyone was as lucky as we were here today there was no need for the scraping of frost from windscreens this morning!!
There was plenty of it to be seen as we went to bed last night .. .. but this morning .. .. all gone!!! Wonderful!!
Today it was my turn to post on the Get Funky! Challenge blog where our lovely Lou has set the theme of
"January Blues"
.. .. which means your creation needs to showcase the colour blue.
Here is my little make:
and to make this I used papers from one of Anice's original CD's called The Funky One
Apart from this CD the only other things I used were:
Woodware Punches: Daisy
Ribbons and Brads from the Stash Box
..... and a pen for a bit of a doodle !! LOL!!
You can win a download of your choice if you are chosen as the Get Funky! winner (so another chance to get your hands on one of the lovely downloads that Anice released at the weekend) and believe me they are both "gorgeous"!!
To take part in the challenge you just need to be following the theme of blue and use a Funky Hand product on your creation.
If you don't have any Funky goodies yet then Anice has provided a freebie paper which you can find here.
OK folks .. .. that is me for today.
I'll catch you again tomorrow. But for now favour boxes are calling me yet again .. .. .. and if you could see all the yummy chocolates and the beautifully coloured almonds I need to put inside the different ones I am making you wouldn't believe your eyes!!
How many calories?!?!?!
It's a good job sweeties are safe with me .. .. although I have had permission to pop the odd Thornton's chocolate in my mouth as there are lots of spares!! LOL!!! (but I won't).

Beautiful card, Jules, the heart trimmed ribbon is gorgeous and the papers are lovely. I'm not sure I could work with all those chocolates - too much temptation for a chocoholic like me and I really shouldn't ... it's not the chocolate that's the problem, in fact chocolate is good for you, it's the high sugar content :( Elizabeth x
ReplyDeleteA wonderful card. I love the heart ribbon.

Just gorgeous Jules - that heart trimmed ribbon is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteWell done on resisting the chocs - although I know when my Aunt worked in Thorntons factory back in the 80s she said you soon get fed up of eating it when you're handling it all day!!!

I had to smile when I saw this gorgeous card Jules, as part of my UIU commitment I had a good sized box of these flowers ready punched in all colours and on Monday tipped them all out, colour sorted them & started using them!! Was just thinking I'll put them away & wait a while before looking at them again ;-) & here you are with more lol!
ReplyDeleteAlthough you might just have inspired me to make another card before they go back in the box!
Oh and just so you know, no bravery involved telling hubby, he's responsible for probably 60% of the stuff even coming into the house in the first place!!!
Hugs xx
Gorgeous card Jules. I am loving it all. The ribbon with the hearts is something I have not seen before.
