TRACY

Hi everyone, I’m Tracy better known in craft world as Crafteezee.  I have been married to my understanding Husband for ummm 28 years, can’t quite believe it myself.  I have two lovely children, Jade who is 22 and my son Conor who is 19, I know I don’t look old enough, lol.
I started making cards around 6 years ago and quickly progressed into scrapbooking, just so I could keep some of the work that I had done.  Just before Christmas 2009 I was inspired seeing some cards made with magnolia stamps and decided to make a few Christmas cards.  It wasn’t long before I realised that my true love was making cards and by January  2010 the Crafteezee Blog was born http/www.crafteezee.blogspot.com. 
 I am now addicted to stamps and all things crafty and if I am not in my craft room, I am on my laptop, ipad or my iphone, well according to my husband that is.   Both my husband and my Son think all my head consists of is two eyes, lol...
I also work full time as a Purchasing Office Manager for an automotive company, so I am generally a very busy lady, but one who always finds time to craft.
Just over two weeks ago I opened the Noor!Design UK Webshop  My new venture and I’ve roped Hubby in, bless him.  I’ve made him Director of parts... little did he know that meant entering them onto the computer system, hehehehe.
I hope you will find the time to visit my new store and if you live in the UK we will be having our first Crafteezee Crafty Crop on 30th November, so if you’d like to learn a little about colouring and making my style cards I’d love for you to join us. I also do distress ink classes at Kit and Clowder!  Please contact me crafteezee@gmail.com

Feast your eyes on these two
gorgeous cards that Tracy
created using products from her

 

 

 
 
Wow!  These cards are absolutely stunning!
I'm sure that all of us will enjoy
browsing through your new shop, Tracy!

Introducing our Newest FUSSY AND FANCY GIRLS!

Hello and happy Friday!
Please scroll down
for our current challenge
"Thankful"
 
******** 
  
Today I
am delighted to introduce
our newest
FUSSY AND FANCY GIRLS!
That's right!
We found even more talent to
inspire you with!

I am so very proud to introduce
you to these very lovely and
super talented ladies!
 
 I know that you will enjoy
getting to know them!
 
 

 Hi, My name is Diane Hover and my blog is Nellies Nest,
named after my dog Nellie.  
I always get a good laugh when people leave me a comment and say
"beautiful card Nellie",
I didn't know she was so talented!!  
I am married a second time to a wonderful man and we have
 5 kiddos between us,
and they have blessed us with 18 grandchildren and
we now have 2 greats...
and I am NOT that old, really!!
  I live in the winter wonderland state of Michigan...pretty, but it can get
darn right cold at times!!
 
I LOVE paper crafting and got into it years ago when I was in a
business with my sister called, "Cabin On The Creek".
We used to stamp all our own primitive tags for our sewn
Santa's and such.

I think what really got me into the paper crafting, besides doing
scrapbooking was all the gorgeous papers that were
available, they remind me of fabric.
 
So now I use my million dollar sewing machine to sew
on my cards...lol...but I love that look and at least it is getting used!!
Besides my paper crafting I love to cook (and eat) and have
big weedy flower gardens that I work in whenever I can.
.  
I have a great sense of humor, but take my card making very seriously!  
As for a style, I think my favorite is Shabby Chic..I just love that look!!!


I am looking forward to being on this amazing team of the
"Fussy and Fancy" girls
 and can't wait to get started with my first project!!!
Thanks for listening and I can't wait to see all YOUR projects in our challenges!!
Hugs!!!
Diane Hover
 
 
Gunn-Eirill

Hi everyone
My name is Gunn-Eirill, I am 45 years young,
living in South of Norway with 3 children and my lovely husband,
and one cat called Gardfield along with 100 fish.

I have always been crafting.  When I was 5 years old I was cross stitching,
at 6 years old, I was making my own clothing, and so on....

in 2007 I was hooked on paper, and now I am a hoarder.
I just love paper, trims, bling, pearls, flowers....you know girls..

My style as a scrapper is easy to explain: 3D, building weird things for
no use and no reason.  I am using my Shilhouette machine to make my own
templates.  I do always have some crazy ideas in my head
for what I am going to make, so I have 3-5 projects on my desk,
and 50 more in my head.  I wish that I had more time to make all the things
I want...one day I will....I hope...

Hugs from Gunn-Eirill

 
  

 
Thank you so much for having me Sheryl.  
What a wonderful surprise when
I returned home from vacation to find your lovely note.  I’m thrilled to be joining
this talented team of designers.
I’ve been a blogger since 2011 and have had the good fortune to be on some great teams,
Fussy & Fancy Friday now being one of them.  
I love to colour with Copics, collect designer paper and digital stamps.
I like to use stitching on my cards and have a very eclectic style….some days CAS,
other days throwing everything on.
   
My dear husband and I love to travel and enjoy time spent with family. 
 
I look forward to working with everyone and seeing all of
your creative entries here at Fussy and Fancy!
Hugs, Pat K xx


You are in for a lovely treat when you

Fussy and Fancy Featured Guest Designer for Challenge 124 - Orange and Black

Hello and happy Friday!

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

aka - Lalkygirl


 

Here's a little about Tracey: 

 
Hi!  My Name is Tracey Rogers ..aka Lalkygirl and I am originally from England
(Liverpool) but I am now very happily living in a gorgeous little town in Wales
called Milford Haven with my partner, Tony.
I have a fabulous daughter called Danielle who is now 28...
 
 I am addicted to paper crafting ....I love the amazing things that can be created from a blank
piece of paper or card.
My favourite crafty pastime is stamping and colouring any hand stamped
or digital images.   I guess my style is very girly and I love learning new techniques.
I am, also, very lucky and get to teach paper crafting three times a week!
 
I am so looking forward to being a Featured Guest Designer for Fussy and Fancy and seeing all the  
wonderful entries for this challenge!
 
Happy Crafting
Tracey

*******
Here is the Halloween gift set that Tracey
created for our current challenge

Orange and Black!
 


 What a wonderful Halloween card and treat bag set, Tracey!
Your stamp is adorable and beautifully coloured by you!
We love all of your fun black die cuts!  They really pop
against your pretty orange design paper and your
bat and owl are so very cute! The black brads and ribbon
add the perfect finishing touches.
Whoever receives this fun Halloween set will be sure to feel very special!
I can't help but want to peek inside your treat bag!
I wonder if it's chocolate?
