Penny's Challenge #240 Anything goes

 Hey, welcome back to my blog home.  I have a wonderful creation to share with you today.  My subject matter is a little early but better to be prepared.  This time of year is usually pretty busy for me.  So let's see who our sponsors are for challenge #240.


Prize~$6 Store Voucher



Prize~Voucher for 3 sets

Oh my golly gracious.  Can I tell you how much I love working with these two sponsors?  Clean and crisp images and a really nice assortment of titles.  Go on over at give some love and a thank you.

My image for this challenge is from Jan's Digi Stamps and is called Easter Hippity Hop.  Here is what I have created.

I went to my local Joanns and picked out this paper.  I love 
the multicolored eggs and thought it would go nicely with the
image from Jan's.  I colored the image using my Prismacolor
Pencils and Shuttle Art Alcohol Markers.  It was cut on my 
Silver Bullet Pro.  Now just to let you know, the glitter faeries
and the Pixies with Pixie Dust had quite the fight in my craft 
room.  I had this super fine glitter all over the entire house
for about a week.  I think that this really added to the
Easter Egg.


The inside has more of the paper I picked out and the 
saying is provided by Jan's to use.


Here is a close up.  So Cute!!!


This is an embossed purple Neenah card stock for the base.  I
have added my logo sticker and initial.

I hope that I have inspired you to get ready for Easter.  I will see you in 2 weeks with another project.

Stay Safe, Stay Healthy and know you are blessed!

Penny's Challenge #239 Anything Goes Using Paper

 Hello Hello so happy your can join me.  Boy here in Oregon USA we are in a cold snap.  It has been getting down to 23-26 F for the past two nights.  The weather will be changing quickly.  When the air pressure rises, I get nose bleeds.  Had one today so just rain for us ahead.  I've had plenty of time to craft but I need to show you who our sponsors are first...

PRIZE~3 digi images of the winners choice


PRIZE~3 digi images of the winners choice

Such a wonderful set of sponsors.  Each have unique images that are very nice.  Please go and show some love and say a quick thank you for sponsoring.

My Image is provided by My Besties and is called LAND OF THE FABLERS ~ FABLER FISH RIDE YUMPY~FURPLE IMAGE~ BY SHERRI BALDY. (say that 5 times fast). So here is how I have used this image.  

Many years ago, I was on a DT called Scrappy Dew.  I 
collected a lot of sets of SVG files.  All the little sea creatures
are from a set called Under the Sea Palz 2.  So I made a few and
used them for my undersea themed card.  I colored this image 
using my Arteza Pro Colored Pencils.  The background paper
is crinkled foil that is years old.  Brown Neenah for the bottom
of the sea.  I put my little sealife and seaweed.  Computer 
generated caption.

Here is a closeup of the right side sealife.  See the tiny eyes on
the clam shell?

The left side and the computer generated caption.


This is the inside.  The green animal is a seahorse that got
into some radioactive sludge.  My octopus is just a cutie.

The back with my logo and my inital to signify it's a Jana
Original.


I had a lot of fun and a lot of memories come up making this card.  Here is the link for ScrappyDew.  The file is towards the bottom.  Look around a bit.  I am sure you will find something you will want to create!

So that's it for this fortnight.  I will see you in two weeks with another Jana creation.

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