Penny's Paper Crafty Challenge # 510

 Twas the night before Thanksgiving in the USA.  I've been cooking all day.  I needed a break and so I am popping on blogger to write my blog post for Penny's Challenge #510.  Of course, here are our sponsors for the 11-24-2021.


Crafty Sentiments Designs
Prize~3 Digi images of the winners choice

Patties Creations
Prize~3 Digi images of the winners choice

I LOVE both of these sponsors.  They both are so generous in supplying images for Penny's design team.  Please go show some love.  Their links are right below their logos.  Thank you friends!!!

On to my project.  I have used an image from Pattie's Creations called Snowman Song.  IMHO it's such a cute image and could be used for so many projects.  But I have decided to decorate one page of my December 2021 planner.  Here are the results...

Here is the finished page.  I started using a Happy
Planner about 6 years ago.  I now try to decorate 
each page.  


Here is the outside of the Happy Planner 2021. 
I re-use the covers but I have made my own also.

Here is the main calendar page.  

Here is the week of December 20, 2021.  I have
used the image Snowman Song as the focal 
point for the week.



Close up of the little bird.  I used blue glitter for
his tail feathers and gold glitter on the music 
notes. I have also used silver glitter on the snow
and green glitter on the scarf tassels.


The snowflakes I have had for years and the 
Baby it's cold outside is from a set of Happy
Planner Holiday Stickers.


I wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving.  I hope you are able to be with family and/or the family you have made for yourself.

Be Safe, Stay Healthy and know you are Blessed!

Penny's Paper Crafty Challenge #208

 Gosh it's the last few days of October.  Where has the year gone?  As I get older I swear the time just moves faster!  But one thing we can count on, a Challenge every fortnight from Penny's. But first let's see who our sponsor is...

Digi Doodle Studios


We have one sponsor for challenge #208.  This sponsor is a big one.  They offer the cutest images for the DT to use and always support the many various teams.  Thank you Digi Doodle Studios!

I am working with the image Elf Gift Surprise.  Such a fun one to create with.  Here is my inspiration.


Here is the envelope

The green and purple card is from American Crafts.
The purple striped and the lime green stripe are
from a Crafter's Companion kit called Contemporary
Christmas (2018).  The Elf Gift Surprise is colored
with Shuttle Art Alcohol Markers.  Holographic
snowflakes and flat backed Christmas bulbs are
items I picked up at a garage sale.

Purple card is American Crafts. The embellishments
are more of the Crafter's Companion Kit.

A CC banner and my sticker.

Here is your fortnight update.  Yes this is correct.
There are only 58 Days until Christmas.



All in all I think that this card is very nice.  I think a close friend will get this one.  See you in a fortnight!

Stay Safe, Stay Healthy and be very blessed!

Penny's Challenge #507

 Hey there~

It's time for another fabulous challenge at Penny's.  Of course, this challenge is always 'anything goes'.  Let's see who our sponsors are...


All Dressed Up
Prize~2 Digital images of the
winners choice

The Artsy Stamper
Prize~1 Stamp set of the winners
choice

Hetty Clare
Prize~2 Digital images of the winners
choice

I love this time of year.  All/most of the sponsors have announced there newest collections.  As a designer for Penny's we're are able to receive a image that might be brand new.  So I give a huge thank you to the sponsors.  Thank you for all that you do.  Go show them some love gang!

Now on to my creation.  My image is from Hetty Clare called Christmouse Wishes.
Here is what I have created.

Bright red card from Paper House and Graphic 45
background from the 12 Days of Christmas Collection.
Blue paper is a scrap and the snowflakes are from
a punch that I found somewhere.  I colored Mr. 
Christmouse with Prismacolor Pencils.  

The inside is more G45 12 days of Christmas paper.
The 2 signs are from a Big DCWV Christmas/
Winter Stack from 2013.

Here is the back.  I should say that the little 
pompoms are from a kit for children that was sold
by Joann's Fabric and Crafts.  

That is my project for this challenge.  I will be back with another creation in a fortnight.

Stay Safe, Stay Healthy and know you are blessed!
