Fussy and Fancy Challenge 150 - Colour Choice! Orange, Black or Purple

Happy Friday
Fussy and Fancy followers!

********

Our challenge for the next
fortnight is hosted by our

very sweet and super talented

Gunn-Eirill

Gunn-Eirill here to welcome you to a new challenge at Fussy and Fancy!

It is my turn to host the challenge, and I have chosen Halloween colors,
And remember you don't have to make a card... your project can be anything at all!

The best way to describe my style, well- I really do not know.
I do make a lot of different projects and styles with paper.
If I had the opportunity, I would just make 3D and altered projects.
When I work on my projects, the time and place disappear.
When I build my 3D projects, I always use my own templates.
I find my inspiration almost everywhere, in nature, children's programs, in my daughters messy room , second hand stores and in my own very messy crafting room!

The challenge that Gunn-Eirill has chosen is:

Colour Choice
Orange, Black or Purple

********

We are excited to announce that

The Fussy and Fancy girls

Featured
Guest Designer

Elizabeth Hart

Here is a little bit about Elizabeth...

I have been making cards and paper crafts for over 15 years.
I love paper most of all and cannot resist a pretty pad of new papers.
My puppy is a Bichon and she loves to rip apart any stray papers I might leave about.
And, last but not least, I am fortunate to have a husband that helps support my fun hobby.

Just in time for Halloween here is the
Autumn Colours
card that Elizabeth has created for us...

Now how ADORABLE is this little darling??!!!

All set for some trick or treat fun with her kitty sidekick!

The colours, papers and image are perfect for our Autumn Colours Challenge Elizabeth...

those bats give this wonderfully fall card a touch of "spooky"!!

The "31" in the corner is the perfect finishing touch!

********

Thank you Elizabeth for joining us as our Featured Guest Designer at

Fussy and Fancy!!

So now dear crafty friends...

Fussy and Fancy Challenge 149 - Autumn Colours

Happy Friday
Fussy and Fancy followers!

Our challenge for the next
fortnight is hosted by

Eileen

Good morning everyone, it's my turn to host the challenge and I have chosen Autumn Colours, using a digi from our sponsor 'Mitzi' and one of her images from Aurora Wings ,' Grumpy Fae'.

If I had to describe my style of cardmakeing it's pretty ordinary really. Love having an image as the focal point and then adding lots of embellishments to co-ordinate with it. I am also addicted to die cutting and collecting ribbons. So voila, just like the card for today's challenge .

The challenge Eileen had chosen is:

Autumn Colours
Here is Eileen's beautiful card!

Eileen, Your card is gorgeous!
Your colouring is beautiful and you did a lovely
job on the sky back ground. The ribbon and die cut mushrooms
coordinate perfectly with your Aurora Wings image!
And I love all of the gorgeous Autumn embellishments
that coordinate perfectly with the angels hair.
Very well done! Simply beautiful!

Eileen will be choosing the

Top 5 Winners

for this challenge!

********

We are excited to announce
that Aurora Wings

is our sponsor for this challenge!

Fantasy artist and digital stamp designer Mitzi Sato-Wiuff started offering digital stamps in Aurora Wings shop on Etsy in May of 2013. It has experienced a phenomenal growth, thanks to the wonderful response to her unique style of art that ranges widely in terms of subject matter, style, and complexity from simple beginners' images to highly detailed, advanced colorists' images -- different from a lot of digital stamps that are available in the paper crafting industry.

Mitzi is a Colorado based artist, who is originally from Japan. Her artwork shows a clear and distinct influence of vintage shojo manga (少女漫画), tattoo art, woodblock prints, and kimono textile art of her native country. Mitzi has been drawing since early childhood, playing with crayons, watercolor, colored pencil, pastel, acrylics, and more recently, digital.

The very sweet, generous and talented

Mitzi

is offering one very lucky winner

$15.00 USD worth of digital stamps of your

choice from her shop!

Thank you, Mitzi!

********

And now, with lots of Gorgeous
creations to inspire you for our
Autumn Colours Challenge,
I'm so very proud to introduce
the very talented and creative

Fussy and Fancy Girls!
