Celebration Blog Hop at Just Inklined


There are so many things to Celebrate at this time of year....summer, holidays, end of school term......as well as the regular birthdays, anniversaries, etc.   This month our challenge at Just Inklined is hosted by our very talented Toni, who also chose the colours of Red, White and Blue.  If you have arrived here from Heidy's blog, all is well.  Otherwise, you may want to go back through the looking glass to Toni's blog.  Also, be sure to leave some comments along the way as there will be a couple of spot prizes at two mystery blogs!!

Today, I've worked with two Just Inklined images, merging them in Photo Shop Elements before printing them out.  The White Rabbit image can be purchased here, or as part of the Wonderland Set, here.  The Fairy Toadstools image is still available as a freebie, over on CDAC, and makes for a great fanciful background.


In case you are wondering, I coloured the background with Prisma pencils and OMS, and White Rabbit with Tombow markers......and no, I didn't colour it twice!  The card is made with my original work, which I then scanned into my computer.  The colours ring fairly true when printed out onto matte photo paper, and now I can make something for each of my grandkids!  I think they might like it....my husband did. (lol)

So now, if you'll head on over to Jeni's blog, you are sure to find something special.  Should you lose your way, you could ask Alice.....lol, but I've also listed the blog hop order below.

Toni, Karen, Heidy, Joyce (you are here), Jeni, Jak, Tammy

Enjoy!...and have a wonderful day!
