Featured
Guest Designer

for our "Say It With Flowers" challenge!!

Katie K

My name is Katie Kempton, aka Inky Angel in the craft world. I live in Vancouver Canada .

I have been married to my college sweetheart for 28 years and we have a son who is graduating from high school this year.

I enjoy crafting all my life. I started card making with Stampin'Up in 2008 and ventured my way into the cyber world in 2012.

My style is usually shabby chic but I like to challenge myself with other styles from time to time.

I love water coloring and my favorite coloring medium is Distress Inks. My other main interests include sewing and knitting.

I carry my knitting bag with me wherever I go and always find time to keep my hands busy.

I am very pleased to be the Featured Guest Designer at Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge this week.

Many thanks to Sheryl and the DTs!

You can see more of my creations at http://inkyangelcreation.blogspot.ca.

Now here is the GORGEOUS card that Katie has created for us...

Oh my goodness Katie this is sheer loveliness!

The papers are gorgeous...you're image is so very beautifully coloured...

Thank you Katie for joining us this week as our

Fussy and Fancy Featured Guest Designer for Challenge # 165 "Anniversary or Wedding"

Hello once again!

********

The Fussy and Fancy girls

are back to introduce

our very talented

Featured
Guest Designer

for our "Anniversary or Wedding" challenge!!

Andrea

Hi, I'm Andrea Norris, unknown artist - Living in Leeds, Yorkshire in the UK. I work full time as a Management Accountant and I'm currently working on 4 design teams. I'm a dancer (Argentine Tango and Ceroc) and a competitive badminton player. It's amazing that I've managed to squeeze drawing into my schedule as well as being an obsessive crafter and creator of cards. I have no actual style as yet, but do love the unusual and quirky. I may be known for producing cards in soft pastel colours.

I love anything arty. I've always drawn stuff, for as long as I can remember. In my younger days I sold a few water colour paintings. I recently found mixed media which is a joy and love creating canvases with flowers.

I've had a battle with digital drawing for about a year and finally found some software I can gel with in January 2016. Recently one of the challenge teams I worked on was short of a designer's images to create with so I drew some. Then people kept asking me for my drawings. So I thought what the heck let's open a shop and give something back to the crafting world, to the lovely ladies who have supported me on my journey.

Recently I've just started my own Facebook group SheepSki Designs where I hold challenges. Things are growing slowly so I still manage to spend at least a little time with my hubby :D

And here is the gorgeous card that Andrea has created for us...
As Andrea hasn't yet drawn an "Anniversary/Wedding" digi for herself she has used this beautiful image from
Aurora Wings...

Absolutely gorgeous Andrea!

Your colouring and shading is simply perfection...

the way that you have framed this beautiful image is stunning!!

Truly a piece of ART!!!

Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge 165 - Anniversary or Wedding!

Happy Friday

Fussy and Fancy Followers!

********

Our challenge for the next

fortnight is hosted by our

super talented Tammy!

Tammy

Good morning everyone, Tammy here to welcome you to a

new challenge at Fussy and Fancy!

It's my turn to host the challenge and
I have chosen the theme of

Anniversary or Wedding.

I've always had some kind of crafty thing going on in my life. But, when I started to make cards,
I knew it was the perfect craft for me because I love to color and create with paper.
I think the best way to describe my style would be... bold coloring with mostly "cute" images and
I love my die cuts!

I hope that you will join us and we can't wait to see all of your creations!

Hugs, Tammy

Here is the adorable card that Tammy created to
share with all of you for her

Anniversary or Wedding Challenge!

Tammy

Tammy, your card is precious! I love that you used
a Princess with her Knight in shining armor!
The images are absolutely adorable!
The hill landscape behind the castle die cut
makes the perfect backdrop for your
royal couple!
The sentiment is perfect! This could be
a great wedding card or an anniversary card!
Thank you, Tammy!

For lots of great card making inspiration, you will
want to pop on over to Tammy's blog!
I promise it will be a treat!

Tammy will be choosing the Top 5 winners
for this challenge!
