Frilly & Funkie Opening Challenge

Good morning friends, I am thrilled to share today's post...it is the depute of the Frilly & Funkie Challenge.  I sure hope you will join us and play along.  Our normal challenge format will be a new challenge theme every other Wednesday morning.  The first week, our Frilly designers will post their take on the theme and the second week the Funkie designers will share their interpretation of the theme.  However for our kick off, the challenge will be only one week and all our designers will share their take on the challenge theme.  Our theme for the kick off will be Your Favorite Vintage Style.  I have created a card with some of my favorite things, flowers, gemstones, distressing, stitching, and of course Paris......yes, you can say I am a frilly girl...luv all things shabby and girlie!  I purchased the Paris tag from this Etsy shop.  I also want to share with you, Linda's shop Funkie Junkie, there are numerous unique creating supplies!  I luv what she has to offer, things you cannot get anywhere.  Also, she has a great supply of Ranger/Tim Holtz at the best prices around...check them out here and here!  Lots more new items arriving very soon too!  I have also played along with OCC and The Paper Players.  I hope you have a great day...enjoy!

  9. I really like the softness of it. I always seem to be at a loss when working with the softer palette, but this is lovely.

  11. This is fabulous Tersa! Shabby Paris Chic at its finest! I adore the paper lace, I love how you used it with the black stitching. The flowers remind me of the big, frilly skirts that the can-can dancers wear! Thanks for joining us this week, here at Our Creative Corner and congrats on your new DT position at Frilly and Funkie! Hugs, Marcy
