Penny's Challenge #538 Anything Goes Using Paper

 Hello everyone!  How's the new year going?  I am getting in the swing of creating projects again after the Christmas break.  I can't wait to show off my creation today.  But first, let's see who our sponsors are.

Prize~2 Digi images of the winners choice




Prize~3 digital images of the winners choice

Can I say I just love these two sponsors?  They are some of the cream of the crop.  Please go and leave some love and maybe a thank you!

My project is using a Paper Nest Doll called Story Time Emma.  Here is my creation.

I love this image.  It reminds me of my daughter when she
was a little one.  We would visit the Library and I would find
her in the stacks reading a book when I was ready to check
out.  Great Memory.  I die cut the card base with a generic die.
Next was the black card.  I colored Emma and her kitty with
Prismacolored Pencils.  I paper pieced all the books and gave
them each titles.  The saying I printed on vellum and used
spray adhesive to stick it on.


The inside.  The bookcase again and the black is a scrap I
found.  Vellum for the saying again.


Here is the back with my label and initial.


This is my project for this fortnight.  I will see you in 2 weeks for another project. 

So Stay Safe, Stay Healthy and know you are blessed.

Penny's Challenge #536 Anything Goes Using Paper

 Hello and welcome to my blog.  I hope that you have a marvelous holiday season.  Mine was just right!  My girls came to visit and none of us was up to cooking (winter weather sure takes a toll in our homes).  So we opened gifts, split the food and that was Christmas.  New Years Eve I watched the ball drop from Times Square on CNN at 9:00pm my time.  Then got back to crafting.  The holidays were just what I asked for.  Let's get 2023 started with Penny's Challenge.  Here are our sponsor(s).



Prize~2 Single images of the winners choice






Prize~3 Digital images of the winners choice

What a way to start the year off right!  These 2 sponsors are simply amazing.  What a joy to create with.  Go show some love everyone!!!

I am using an image from Ching-Chou Kuik Digital Stamps called It's October.  Let me show you what I created.

Isn't she pretty?  I used a sketch online to create the back-
ground.  The papers are all scraps.  I colored her using Prisma-
Color Pencils and Arteza Colored Pencils.  The sentiment is
one I created.   
Many years ago I bought a punch system from Marvy.  This 
is one of the cartridges.  I kept the scrap in my embellishments
box.  I put it to good use.


This is my logo and my inital.

That's it for this fortnight.  Thank you for coming along.  I'll see you in 2 weeks for another fabulous challenge from Penny's!

Love to all,
