Funky Fairys Alter It Challenge

The theme on tha Funky Fairys Challenge this week is a lovely fun one :-) We are asking you to find something and 'Alter It' :-) I do enjoy making things other than cards :-)



I need storage for various stamps and am making one of these boxes whenever I get an empty one ;-) This started life as an ariel tablet box :-)



The image is a new one that I just bought from Pink Gems Designs this one is called Winter Hoot cute eh :-) the papers are from the new Funky Fairys Papercrafts Shabby Christmas Kit The mat is in the kit too and I printed the text on the comp :-)



The image was coloured with copics and 3D's onto the front. The ribbon and snowflake eyelets were from my stash :-)
The usual rulea apply ,,, to enter the challenge you need to use at least one item from Funky Fairys Papercrafts there are lots of free papers on the Blog of Inspration too so you can try before you buy :-) Every week Shaz gives away a fabulous rize of a complete paper download, BRILLIANT !! :-) So what're you waiting for ,,, :-)

The DT have made some fantastic creations for you this week ,, an altered CD clock, an empty coke bottle, bags, books,clothes pegs and lots more :-) Go to the Funky fairys Challenge blog to see them ,, then don't forget to pop around and leave a nice comment :-)
I will be having my usual weekly blog candy later so pop back to see what's on offer !! :-)


1 card 4 Challenges :-)

I made this card following Martine's lovely sketch on the Basic Grey Challenge but have just realised I missed off 2 elements !! There is supposed to be 2 rectangles, one on the top and one on the bottom :-( I will go and try to fix it and re upload a piccy later :-/ ,,,,, I did remember to used BG papers tho :-)

I also made this to fit the Stamp Something challenge whose theme is Apples/Teachers/School :-) I have had this Sarah Kay stamp for a long time now and this is the first time I inked it !!

The One Stop Craft Challenge is 'Autumn', well ,, apples are an autumn fruit !! and the theme on the Cupcake Craft Challenge is 'Thanks a Bunch',,, does thanks a basket count ??? :-)



I coloured the image with copics and 3D'd her :-) I added diamond glaze to the apples and glitter copics here and there. The background was made by masking the image then spraying a light green with my new copic air gun ,,,, so much fun !! :-) I can see I will need loads of cans of air !! wonder if I can rig my scuba diving air tank up to it !!! :-)



The flowers are prima ,,, I did want to make my own like I did on my Tilda card, but I am a bit short of time today ,,,, first day back at school for Amy ,,,, she's been on school holiday since May !!!! I know most of you love having your kids home ,, and so do I ,, but 4 months is a long time and I am so glad to have my mornings to myself again :-)))))
I also used an apple charm :-)

The 'Thanks' is from a Simon Says Clear Stamps SENDING SUNSHINE Exclusive Set

I have a blog candy pinned to the top of my blog if you would like to take a look :-)
