Things with Wings

Hello everyone! Pamellia here and I am the hostess for the next challenge here at Frilly and Funkie. I have chosen the theme THINGS WITH WINGS for this one. I would like to see anything that has wings, use your imagination... just make sure your project is shabby chic or vintage in style.

The team will choose their top four picks with the winner being invited to join us in a Guest DT spot here at Frilly and Funkie and the next three will receive badges to display on their blogs. Everyone who enters and follows the rules will be entered into the draw to have the chance to win a $25 spending spree at The Funkie Junkie Boutique.

The guidelines for entering are simple; create a new vintage or shabby chic project following the challenge theme, link it below to your post (not just your blog) and also include a link back to this challenge in your post. You can combine our challenge with up to 10 challenges (including this one) to be in with a chance of winning. Make sure you follow these rules as unfortunately we have had to eliminate entrants from the prize draws in the past when they have entered too many other challenges. If you are entering through a public forum please use keyword F&F. Also, please be sure to turn off your Word Verification so our Design Team can leave comments on your blogs.

Here are the wonderful creations from the Funkie team!

Jenny Marples - Pushing The Right Buttons

Saturday Step by Step - Christmas Stripes

Hello Everyone, Pamellia here! So glad you dropped in to Frilly and Funkie today for my Saturday Step by Step. I have put together a complete tutorial on the Christmas card I made for Jenny's "All Lined Up" challenge. I really had fun playing with my wonderful new products from The Funkie Junkie Boutique!! I hope you enjoy!



I cut three panels from the Pion Design paper stacks Siri's Kitchen and A Day in May, sizes 6", 5.5" and 5" squared. I layered them onto slightly larger panels of white, distressed all the edges and layered them together with foam squares.


I cut a panel of corrugated cardboard about 5" x 3".


I cut a deer from striped Pion Design paper using the Tim Holtz Reindeer Flight die, and edged it with Potting Soil Archival ink from Ranger.



I chose a great image from the Tim Holtz Festive Ephemera pack and distressed it.


Some seam binding that I coloured with Distress ink spray Walnut stain and then tied in a bow.


I cut a doily with a Prima die and pulled out a couple of these fabulous wood chippies from Southern Trading Co.


I made this ruffled ribbon using May Arts ribbon. To see a full tutorial on how to create these wonderful ruffles, visit my Friday Focus on May Arts Ribbon here.


Time to layer a few things together to make sure the base design has a good balance.


Next I cut some leaves out of a striped page from the Tim Holtz Yuletide paper pad and edged them with Potting Soil.



I used some of this lovely baker's twine, a beautiful reindeer charm and some jingle bells to add a little extra festive cheer.


I added some Petaloo flowers and Wild Orchid flowers as well as some Tim Holtz Mirror Stars.


Some last minute touches with some Prima Gesso, Holiday Words die, a little clothes pin, Chit Chat stickers and a spritz of Picket Fence for good measure.



I hope you enjoyed my tutorial. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions. There's still lots of time to enter our current challenge "ALL LINED UP". We'll be back first thing on Monday to announce the winners of our last challenge, so make sure to check in for that.

Thanks for stopping in!
Hugs, Pamellia :)
