Our first challenge this year at Fab'n'Funky Challenges - Its Winter!

Good morning blog friends

Well I recon Jackie got it just about right when she set this weeks challenge over at

Fab'n'Funky Challenges

Winter

she said!

and winter it is!

Our first really cold day this year and I don't like it one little bit!

The best bit about this challenge is the really virtuous feeling I got having made my first Christmas card this year - I'm really full of good intentions(aren't we always at this time of year)

I'm going to try to make a Christmas card every other week for the rest of the year

Not even every week - I don't want to be too ambitious after all lol

We have two fabulous sponsors this week at Fab'n'Funky challenges

Our regular first prize sponsor 

Who is regularly sponsoring our challenge this year with a special first prize 

and 

I chose a really cute digi fom

 Stampart Design by Kathryne

over at Whimsy Stamps 

She is called 

Raggedy Girl Sled and is available here

I was actually feeling a bit down about not making Christmas cards

- because no matter how busy it can be 

they really are the very best cards to make 

you can go totally OTT with the sparkle and bling like no other time of the year!!

So I decided to have a real glitter and sparkle fest with this one and I got to use those gorgeous glittery snowflakes that didn't even make it out of the box and onto my last years card - what a waste!

This is what I did....

Digi stamp - Raggedy girl sled from Stampart by Kathryne

Coloured with - Copics and Prismacolor pencils

Papers -  recollections blue Christmas from Michaels

              the blingy snow flakes and words are also from recollections

Die cut snowflakes - Dienamics dies

Die cut frame - spellbinders labels ten

Ribbon and check card  from my stash

Pearl sticks - cut from pearl sticks from Wild orchid crafts

Glittered with - Diamond stickles

So if you want that virtuous feeling that a Christmas card in January can bring come on over to 

Fab'n'Funky challenges this week and bring a winter card with you - see you there!

Challenges I'm entering with this card

Canyoudigiit - sparkle

Crafty sentiments designs - sparkle / glitter

You will need to commit to participate in the weekly challenges using the theme set and any sponsor images provided.

Do I need experience?
"CERTAINLY NOT!" We just want people who are enthusiastic, prepared to post a Fab'n'Funky DT card weekly on your blog and love to craft and are up for a challenge! If you are on other DT's that doesn't exclude you either but please do consider your work load when entering our DT Call.

Is there any financial reward?
Unfortunately the answer to that is  " NO " ! We are very lucky however as many of our sponsors do supply us with their images and/or products in the weeks they sponsor.

How are the themes set?
You will  go on a rota to set the weekly challenge ,

when you can choose the weeks theme taking into account our sponsors and any events going on at the time.

Good luck everyone
