Funky Fairy's Fun Blog Hop

Welcome to the 1st Funky Fairy's Blog Hop to celebrate the merging of the Shop and Challenge Design Teams. We felt we had to celebrate with a "Funky Fairy" party . . . or a blog hop in this instance!

Now the theme this week over on the Challenge Blog is "Case It". This simply means that we have been looking at each others fab projects and choosing one to "CASE" (case is an acronym for Copy And Share Everything) so you create a project using someone else's work as your inspiration but do not need to copy it exactly.
Well as you can imagine all the DT members got involved & have pulled "a blinder" this week and if you follow the blog hop you will see all their brilliant projects.
Please do leave a comment on every blog you visit to be eligible for the fab prize being offered by Funky Fairy's Papercrafts (via the Inspirational Blog) . . . we will check you know!


This little beauty was made by our very own Emma. Isn't this the bees knees? She did a fabby job, I love it, especially the little candy buttons along the eaves of the roof.

Here's my attempt. I've used Shabby Christmastime papers as I thought it would make a lovely tree ornament hence the ribbon you can just see at the top of the picture.


Now you should have arrived here from Diana's blog. I hope you remembered to collect her letter but please don't forget to collect mine which is F or you'll be in a muddle at the end lol

At this point you should have six letters, including mine. So, now you need to need to pop over and visit Jilly to carry on the Funky Fun.

If you have not collected all the previous letters, or had a browse through the rules please pop back to the beginning of our blog hop over on the Inspiration Blog.

I've also put together a little candy just to help the celebrations along.


This candy will run until Friday 4th September
I'll announce the winner on Saturday 5th.

To be eligible to win the goodies just leave me a comment on this post telling me what your favourite set of Funky Fairy's papers are. Simples!!!!
Don't worry if you don't have a blog, just make sure you leave your email on the post so I can contact you.
It would be great if you also joined us in the challenge this week and became a follower of the Funky Fairy's blogs although that is not compulsory.
Last but not least, have fun girls!!

  2. You are right! I would definitely want to use this on my Christmas tree! It is really very cute.
    It looks so cute to see your project for Christmas and then see your summer flowers in the background! LOL! But it just goes to show that Christmas crafting has to start EARLY!!
