Well today is a bittersweet post for me...sniffle 😢...it's our last challenge post for Fussy and Fancy...sniffle...sniffle😢!!! Fussy and Fancy was my first design team position...I was so excited...and nervous!!...when Sheryl emailed me to ask if I would like to be on her Fussy and Fancy team...thank you Sheryl for giving me the opportunity and showing me the encouragement that I needed to get my "feet wet" on the DT scene!! My first official post as a "Fussy and Fancy Girl" was on November 1, 2013...where does five years go??!!
It has been my honour and pleasure to work along side some very talented ladies over these five years...Annie, Jo and Norma you were all so very welcoming and encouraging when this very "green girl" first started...others have come and gone through the years and I thank them for the inspiration and the chance to get to know some great people...I have to shout out here to Judy who I've shared a great on-line friendship with...oh and I've been the lucky recipient of some BEAUTIFUL "Inky Pinky Delights" cards through the years...thank you my friend!!...to my fellow remaining FF teamies...Andrea, Darlene, Gina, Julie, Jules, Pat and Tone...thanks for making my job as assistant co-ordinator so very easy and for sharing your talent with me/us...last but certainly not least...thank you to Nikki for taking on the main role when Sheryl was unable and for keeping us going till now...and let's not forget your talent!!!
Okay well...let's get to our challenge!! We really would LOVE for all our lovely followers and friends to join us in closing Fussy and Fancy out with a bang...the final winners post will be on January 11, 2019!!
Oh and our theme is "Christmas/New Year"! I made this card for a very special friend...I wanted to go white on white and do a pop-up card...SO LOVE making these!!...well I added some silver to take away some of the "blah" and then when I went to photograph it no matter how I positioned the lights/card I got glare..😖😖!!!
Anyway here is what I came up with...
please click on the first image for a closer view/slideshow...
I put some white card stock through a Spellbinders Christmas embossing folder to make my "DP" then mounted it on silver foil paper...hence the glare!!...
this little darling is "Divine Angel Tilda" from the Christmas Party 2017 collection...
coloured with my copics...
dusted with Chunky White Frantage...
I wanted to make her wings a little more noticeable so I stamped two extra sets with silver embossing powder then cut them out and tucked some white feathers in between the layers...
her dress is accented with White Liquid Pearls...
"greetings of the season" is from Stampingbella stamped with Stazon onto white chiffon ribbon...
my Foamiran poinsettia...
the inside pop-up...
"wishing you" is from a Frantic Stamper word die...
ornament die from my stash...sorry I lost the package so can't tell you the manufacturer...
"Merry Christmas" is a Hero Arts stamp...
And that is my final card as a Fussy and Fancy Girl!! We'd really love for you to join us for our final challenge!!
