Walk like an Egyptian.. oh dear!

As I haven't had a minute to be here so far this week . Which I'm very sorry for, it's just full steam ahead here at Teapot Studios at the moment and I hardly know whether I'm coming or going! I thought I would just quickly give you all a little laugh with a picture of myself and Ian at my Uncles recent "Egyptian" themed birthday party.. we dressed up for the occasion as you can see!!

I thought I made quite a good Cleopatra until I saw the state of me on this photo!! Anyway, we had a fab night eating and drinking eastern style food and drink, great fun was had by all, as it always is when we visit my mad family!! 

On the Funky Hand front, at the moment I am working away on designing for the next CD release and there will be a new download collection available in the near future to keep you going as well !

Before I sign off, I wanted to remind you to make sure that you take a look at our Design Team challenge blog Get Funky!

Sweetheart word book - a closer look!

I thought I might give you a bit of a closer look at the Sweetheart word book that I demonstrated on Create and Craft last weekend.  It was made with the Delightful Fun Collection from my latest CD release Dreams Come True.  

I know Valentines Day is on it's way and I thought that this card would be perfect to send to a chap..a bit of pink etc but not too girly especially as I used the black ribbons to join it all together.

 

I didn't get a chance to demo any of the other cards I'd prepared on the show but I might share them with you at a later date if I don't use them in the future.

I'm working away at the moment starting to design the papers for the next CD release.  So keep your eyes peeled in a few months to see what I've come up with this time!

Create and Craft TV Saturday 11am show

Hello again, this is just a very quick post to let you know that if you would like a closer look at our brand new craft CD release Dreams Come True, I will be showcasing it again on the Create and Craft channel tomorrow Saturday 6th Feb at 11am.  Hopefully you can join me and see some of the wonderful demo cards that my Design Team have made using the disc. They have made some fantastic things and I hope I'll get a bit more time to share them with viewers on this show.
Now I have to be off to get ready for the really dull 3 1/2 hour drive to Peterborough...
Speak again very soon

Get Funky Challenge for February

Another month has flown by and here we are in Feb..so it's time for a new challenge over at the Get Funky! Challenge Blog. Thank you to everyone who joined in with Lythans great challenge last month I know she had a hard time picking a winner.

I have to admit that I have been a bit busy in January with the release of our new CD Dreams Come True, moving into my lovely brand new Teapot Studio offices, becoming an employer and doing two TV shows for Ideal Word in less than a week so.. my entry into this months challenge,which by the way is a nice open theme just I Love Crafting and you can make anything you like at all, is a little bit of a cheat (hehe!)  Corrina my new office manager 'doesn't craft' but she was tempted this week when one of her close friends had a beautiful baby girl.  So I helped her, just a little bit to create this word book using the word book generator from Dreams Come True...

 

I'm really proud of her first go at crafting properly and now I think she has to admit that she could be drawn into enjoying making things..hahaha, I knew she couldn't be surounded by my stash for that long and not get drawn in!!

Hope you can join in with us this month, see you over on Get Funky! Don't forget there's a £20 voucher to spend on my website www.funkyhand.com to win every month.

Speak again soon
