Funky Hand Design Team Challenge

Decided to enter the August sketch challenge over at Funky Hand. All you have to do is follow their sketch and use at least one Funky Hand paper or extra in your design.

I used my Funky Daze CD which makes fabulous word books and used the "End of the Week" scrap page to cover my card; one of the matching backing papers for the oval and fan on top; a sheet of the ribbons and then added a silk ribbon, some gems and a matching organza flower. As it says on the CD - funky designs!!! LOL

Another Word Book

Our friend, Alan, who lives in the village is 65 soon and we have been invited to a garden party (fingers crossed for the weather!!!) so I wanted to make a word book for him and used my Funky Daze CD.


Alan's interests are wine, cycling and gardening so I tried to theme the word book for these hobbies. I downloaded an image of a red wine bottle which had a blank label. I took the image into Photoshop and typed "Chateau Rankin 2009" and "made in Sparkford" on the label. I then printed it out on inkjet shrink plastic. It looks pretty good and I was pleased with it. I also stamped an image of a bicycle from the Flower Soft range onto shrink plastic and luckily I had some charms of various garden implements which I also used.


I hope he likes it.
