Oddball Art Day!

Hello friends!  Wow - it's been a while since I've blogged, but I have a really great excuse!  We bought a new home, and we moved into it about 10 days ago!  I'm in love with my new home, and I don't think I've sat down once over the past couple of weeks except to eat or sleep.  I'm exhausted, but in a good way.  I go back to work tomorrow after taking all last week off, and my commute is going to increase by about 20 minutes so it will take a little getting used to but it's a nice route and I don't even mind.  I'll share some house pics as soon as I can get some decent ones.  Our bedroom set is getting delivered tomorrow, so exciting!

Anyway - we have a new challenge for you today at:



I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

The Alphabet Challenge: Y is for YOU Choose
Creative Knockouts: Furry Friends
Inspiration Destination: Anything Goes
Not Just Cards: Anything Goes
Creative Fingers: Anything Goes

I used one of last month's new release images called Sweet Spooky Sophia, #282, and I colored it with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits.  I kept the background simple by just using a plain black cardstock with 2 strips of some fun Halloween DP from doodlebug inc.

And we also have a new release today at:


This little cutie is #291, and I colored her with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits with a bit of Stickles added in.  I'd like to add this to the following challenges:

The Pencil Case: More than One (I used clay skulls & clothes hanger clips)
The ABC Challenge: B is for B (you pick - I picked BABY)

 Don't forget - if you want to grab any of the Oddball Art digi stamps in the ETSY shop, make sure to use code DTJENNB10 for 10% off your order!  

 Hope you're all staying warm and dry! Peace.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:


I kept this pretty simple by just fussy-cutting the gorgeous dove from Vera Lane's Peace Out set and attaching him & the text with pop-up dots then tying a ribbon around the ATC with a little peace sign charm attached to it.  Peace.

Wicked Wednesday: Make it Sparkle

Hello friends!  Today we have a new challenge for you at:



Our challenge is running for 2 weeks this time because next week's sponsor backed out on us at the last minute (Julia Spiri).  She said it was due to lack of entries in our challenge blog - I find this type of behavior very unprofessional and just plain mean.  This was a first for me and I was a little hurt, a little angry, and a little worried about finding a replacement sponsor on such short notice... then I quickly got over it and figured my devoted team could use a week off anyway.  So there you have it - and I'd like to enter my cute little ATC into the following challenges:

Creaine Challenges: Bingo (I used wings, pink, and pearls/bling)


I colored Flyaway Butterfly (my new image) from All Dressed Up with Prismacolor pencils & mineral spirits and paired her with some pretty rose paper.  I added some gemstone stickers to finish it off. Peace.
