Penny's Challenge #487

 Well after 2 cataract surgeries and the healing that must take place I am finally able to say "I'm back to creating!"  My eyes are healing nicely and will probably keep changing for the next 6 months to a year.  But I am back to my colouring and loving life again.

So for challenge #487 we have two fabulous sponsor(s).  Here they are.

Prize~4 Digital images of the winners choice

Prize~3 Digital images of the winners choice

I have to say that these two sponsors are so generous with the images they have provided for the design team to use.  Please go show some love!

Now on to my project.  I have repurposed a tea tin into a candy box for Valentines Day.  I made this while my eyes were still healing so please disregard the whoops.

I have a list of all the colors used on 'Dottie Save The Earth' digital image by Bugaboostamps.com. Just email me.  So this was done using all scraps from the many projects I do.  The ribbon on the sides is from a beach themed scrapbooking kit.  Little gems are from Joanns.  So here it is.

I must apologize.  I didn't take pics to show the 
creation of the candy box.  Thought I had but
so is life.

Here is the completed repurposed tea tin.  It really
was a perfect fit for this project.  I just love how
my project came together.

That's it for this first project of 2021.  In a fortnight I will be back with another surprise to you (and me) creation!  So glad you could join me today!  But for now...

Bright Blessings, 

A Surprise Wine box with Simply Crafty SVG's

Welcome to my newest creation featuring designs from Simply Crafty SVG's.  I had a need for a box for a wine bottle.  The gift is not actually a wine bottle but a bottle of pumpkin spice flavoring.  I have used the Exploding Wine Bottle Box SVG file.  Here is what I have done.

First I made a shaker tag.  It says Happy
Anniversary 2020.  It is made from beige heavy
cardstock.  I also colored the scroll with Prisma
Color pencils.  The sparkle mix is from Hoffman
Originals and called Green Pesto.

I got this during a Tuesday Morning visit.  My
DIL loves anything pumpkin spice.

Here is the finished box.  Black ribbon plus the
shaker tag.  All papers are from Graphic 45 and
are double sided 12 x 12's.  This paper is from
Bohemian Bazaar and called Mystical Masterpiece.

A little better view of the completed box.

Off comes the lid and the sides fall apart.  This
is such a great file. 

Here is the glamor shot!

So that's it for this month.  I will have another post on November 2, 2020.  Until then stay healthy, stay safe and I wish you the brightest of blessings.  Oh almost forgot, Happy Halloween if you celebrate.

October 5, 2020 with Simply Crafty Svg's

I have been making a set of card for my daughter-in-law.  She is a Veterinarian.  I just found out today that she brought home two new baby kitties.  So my daughter and DIL now have 4 dogs, 5 cats and 2 aquariums.  Oh they also have a ton of wildlife in their backyard.  Never a dull moment with this household.  

Today I would like to share the dog version of the Dog Angel Sympathy Card.  My DIL loves being a Vet. but the one aspect she hates is when she has to euthanize an animal.  Doesn't matter what type it is, it comes with the profession.  So to make it a little more easy I have made cards for her to send to the furbabies parents.  So here is what I have made so far.

This is last months project.
  Cat Angel Sympathy Card.

This month I have made the canine
 version of Dog Angel Sympathy Card.

Envelopes

The cards

I have used double sided tape to seal the envelope.

Side by side

I saved the cut out of the dog and one of the 
clouds for the inside.  The pink matches to well.
I should have backed the dog with a dark paper.

This is much better.

Male cards

Female cards

Side by side

These two sets of cards are going to be an anniversary present.  10-5-2020 Is my daughter's birthday and their anniversary.  We will be celebrating this weekend with presents and maybe a cake.

Thank you so much for visiting.  Please stay healthy and safe.  

Brightest blessings,
