Hello and happy Friday!

Today the Fussy and Fancy girls
are happy to introduce
our very talented
Guest Designer

Jennifer D.
 
Here's a little about Jennifer: 


Hi I am Jennifer.

I live in the land down under, Australia.

I have been Stamping for about 4 years and I am addicted. I Looooove Stamps and

I am also a Sucker for Dies and Paper too! I usually use Copics but am dabbling in Distress Markers as well!

I have Crafted my whole life. I have done hand knitting, embroidery and machine knitting, which has given me great design and colour skills.  My absolute favorite sort of cards to make are Easle Cards and they just have to have Lace and Flowers.

 

 


*******
 
Jennifer has made a stunning card
for our, Happy Birthday challenge.

 
 
And just look at this lovely Spring easel card!
 

Jennifer, Your
Birthday card is GORGEOUS!
 
We love all of the die cut layers, lace
and flowers!
I see pearls and a pretty heart charm too!
There are so many yummy feminine touches!
 
Your colouring is simply lovely and 
you added just the right amount of frontage!
 
 
 The pretty soft purple and pink papers are beautiful
and delicate
and we love your sweet sentiments!
 
Your card is stunning and the recipient of this
card will be one very lucky lady indeed!

Challenge 107 - "Be My Valentine"

Happy Friday
Fussy and Fancy followers!

We will be announcing 
the winner of
Live and Love Crafts
Gift Certificate

Our challenge for the next
fortnight is hosted by our
very talented

Millazin
 
Hello, my name is Milla
and I live in Drammen, Norway, with my boyfriend.
I am known as Millazin in the blog/paper crafting world.

 It has been about two years since I started paper crafting.
I have been doing crafts in different forms since childhood, and earlier I made silver jewelry.
I had to quit (a least for now) because my hands couldn´t manage the heavy
and static work with silver.

Then paper was the perfect solution to be creative!  I have been completely hooked
on this wonderful paper hobby, for there are so many exciting techniques
and materials to play with!

I try to fit the materials and colors of my work to the recipient.
I am very fond of making rough projects, with metal tape,
however, I also make some sweeter stuff. 

Hugs from Milla

 
The challenge Milla has chosen is:


Be My Valentine
 
Here is the beautiful card
and gift set
that Milla has created!

Milla will be choosing the
Top 5 Winners
for this challenge!

********
Our sponsor for this challenge is
I think that most of us are already
familiar with Marianne Design and
their wonderful crafting products!
 
I own quite a few of their die cuts
and they are always the perfect die
to use for beautiful, elaborate embellishments
with precise clean cut lines.
They are really nice quality!
 
Marianne Designs is a Dutch owned craft company
based in the Netherlands.
Their products are available in 18 countries around the world! 
They produce a wide range of products which represent a complete
concept of paper crafts.
There are different lines of stamps and dies with matching papers
and materials to decorate your cards or scrapbooking pages.
Products are chosen carefully for mixing and matching
and stimulating creativity.

We are so excited to share the
very generous stamp and die cut sets
that Marianne Design is providing for
one lucky winner who
enters this challenge!
