Spruce It Up!

Welcome back to our second week of Rebecca's Spruce it Up challenge.  We've had some fabulous projects entered into our challenge and it still has another week to run  Here's some more inspiration for you from our Funkie team.  Hope you will play along!





**********Week 1 Post**********
Hello!  Rebecca is our host this week but before we dive into it, all of us at Frilly and Funkie want to say how thrilled we were with the participation in our first challenge of 2013.  What a super welcome you all gave our sensational new designers. We hope you will all be back again to play with us for this challenge.

Rebecca's challenge to you is to Spruce It Up!  Take a look around your desk or workspace and the things on it that you use to organize, communicate and run your life. It's amazing how we stop really seeing those everyday items! Think of calendars, birthday/anniversary planners, writing implements, checkbooks, iPads, index card files, cell phones, file folders, etc.. Then, set yourself the challenge of making one of those 'plain jane' items into something that makes you smile, every time you use it!  And to get you started thinking in that direction, here is some inspiration from our Frilly girls:

Sue Carrington - Stamping Sue Style

Linda Coughin - The Funkie Junkie

Whatever your vintage style, Frilly or Funkie, you are welcome to play along with our vintage inspired challenge. You may upload your project at any time. If using a public forum, please use keyword F&F. Please be sure to provide a link back to our challenge in your post. Please please please be sure to turn off your Word Verification so our design team can leave comments on your blogs. And don't forget, you can only play in 4 other challenges besides ours.   We had a few entries that didn't qualify last time because they had entered too many challenges.  From now on, we will be deleting those entries.
