Come join the most amazing team!!!!!!

We have had a few of our girls step down in the last few months, most recently Rachel and Jackie and we really miss them all, but the spaces they have left are there to be filled by a whole new set of DT members and so we are very excited to announce our DT call for 3 or 4 new members for 2014.
So.... What's it all about!

  • Fab'n'Funky Challenges is a very popular weekly challenge going live each Wednesday- but we have two teams who post on alternative weeks so as a DT member at Fab'n'Funky your commitment would be to make a project every other week - though you can join in every week if you would like to.  We take holiday breaks in the busy summer and Christmas periods so you don't need to worry about meeting deadlines at these times.
  • We have sponsors every week and prizes for our challenge winners - the majority of these sponsors provide digis for the team to work with - so you need to be able to colour and work with digi stamps
  • Also you must be prepared to promote our sponsors and their images on your blog -  we have some wonderful sponsors for 2014.
  • We have crafters of all styles and abilities on our team - so you do not need to be an experienced crafter or DT member as there is always someone around to help out on our DT blog on blogger where we chat and keep up to date with our challenges - so a blogger account is required so that you can join in with us as we are a very democratic bunch!!
  • The other requirement is that you comment on your allocation each week - and it's always nice to visit your fellow teamies!
  • Oh and just one other thing! - as an added twist this year we are introducing a Christmas challenge in the last week of every month - in a bid to get everyone organised with a few more Christmas cards for next year - now that can't be a bad thing -                                                       so it's Fab'n'Funky Challenges - with an added twist of Christmas!!

If you like the sound of this all you need do is link up to Mr Linky below and we'll pop round to visit you - so have the kettle on for when we arrive!!

Please ensure that there is a link to your email on your blog - or alternatively email it to me on the Fab'n'Funky email address shown on the side bar - after all you want to be sure to get that email telling you that you made the team.  

The DT call will run until 6pm GMT 17th January - so you have lots of time to apply, if you have any questions at all just send me an email and ask away!

All that remains is for me to thank you all for your support this year and to wish you all a very Merry Christmas - see you all next year

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow.......

Oh! How I love winter and all the fluffy white snow. Now I just wish it would stay with us for Christmas. It seems to snow and get  all pretty, and then we get two or three days of warm weather again, only to see our beautiful blanket of white melt away.

But hopefully with this weeks challenge over at Fab'n'Funky we will see plenty of Snow in the form of snowflakes on your wonderful creations.

Here is what I came up with.



 
When I was at the "Treat Store" (as my kids call it. LOL( Mack's convenience)) I notice that they were just throwing out the containers for the 5cent candies. So asked if I could take them. So here is one of those containers. I decorated it with some Bazzill bling cardstock and some Stamp Fairy stamps. Voila an easy gift for the teachers. I think I will fill it up with cookies and chocolates.
 
Hope you like it!
Your comment are greatly appreciated.
 
Don't forget to link your project up over at Fab'n'Funky for your chance to win a wonderful prize from our Sponsor this week.
