Fussy and Fancy Cxhallenge 177 - Different Folds or Shaped Cards!


Happy Friday
Fussy and Fancy followers!

*********

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

Annie



Hello to all Fussy and Fancy Followers!

I am Annie and I have been a Fussy and Fancy Lady for a couple of years now.
I seem to have been crafting all my life.
Most recently it has been paper crafting and altered art.
I do love to start with a plain piece of card or paper and then by using stamps,
inks and dies turn it into something unexpected.
I love it when someone asks "How did you do that?"
As I am hosting Challenge #177 I thought I would ask you to make a card
using a different shape or fold .... it doesn't have to be complicated
just slightly different from what you would normally make.
There are so many ideas out there ... easel cards, gatefold cards, stepper cards,
fold back front cards ... I look forward to seeing what you come up
with ... don't stress, crafting is about having fun!
Please join us, I look forward to seeing your creations xx

Here is the beautiful card that Annie
created for her
Different Folds or Shaped Cards!

Annie, This is absolutely Gorgeous!

I love the folded front gatefold style! 

The delicate embossing and die cuts are lovely
using the white and so very intricate!
Then I love the stunning spray of roses that you added!
You have created such a beautiful card for
somebody very special!

Fussy and Fancy Challenge 176 - ICE/SNOW with lots of texture and sparkles!

Happy Friday
Fussy and Fancy followers!

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

JUDY

For many years I made cross stitched cards and small projects (one nighters)

until late 2007 when I gingerly transferred to card making.

It was some time before stamping took hold but once it did

WOW there no stopping me, I just love it!

I had silently followed the blogs avidly but only plucked up the courage

to form my own blog in February 2011!

It was so scary hitting "publish" for the first time but now I wonder why

I did not do this before.

I feel I have come such a long way, am now on several Design Teams.

It is a great hobby, and one that is definitely a pleasure to share.

Do feel free to drop by my blog!

*********

Here is the gorgeous card that Judy
created for her
ICE/SNOW
with lots of texture and sparkles


This is such a Beautiful card, Judy! 
Oh my goodness, where do I start?
There are so many wonderful embellishments!
I love that gorgeous lace and the pretty rose trim with pearl
centers.  The flowers, Christmas balls, star, pearls
 and soft bow are all perfectly arranged to frame
your adorable vintage picture!
I have to say that I am really in love with the
pretty pom pom trim! 
It makes the perfect finishing touch
for your ice/snow themed card!


You are always in for a special treat with lots of special
inspiration when you pop on over to
Judy's blog!

I love and enjoy card making.
I really love coloring my stamps or digis, best of all.
I principally use copic markers.
My style is principally shabby chic with lots of flowers etc....
Sometimes I try to make my cards more Clean and Simple, (It's really hard for me, though! LOL!)
I was a Fussy and Fancy Girl and it's really fun to join this talented team once again
as a Featured Guest Designer! ;)

And we're SO very pleased to have you back creating with us as our
