Dr Digi Mermay Challenge - May 2026
On June 1, 2026 I was notified that I won the
I joined in on the challenge by creating this piece using 2 separate images. Aside from the images that I colored using Copic markers.
The fishes and the turtle were fussy cut from a leftover underwater scene. For the underwater colorful grass I used Liquid Pearls.

APTTC - January-Sponsor Conie Fong (2 images)
I volunteered to design a second image for the January challenge which is happening over at
Our sponsor is Conie Fong. I chose to go with 2 Conie images one is Bamboo Pandas and the second is Balloon Bears.
On the Panda Balloon image I used my TH distress inks, crushed olives & peeled paint. I printed and minimized the images to fit an ATC card and colored them w/ copic markers.
I created a small slit beneath the panda to insert part of him into it
and cut some slivers of card stock that I colored to represent grass.
I also hand drew and colored the bamboo sticks some on card stock and some on frosted vellum paper. Below are some samples of how I created and painted them.
************************************************
I began with prepping the ATC using my Salty Ocean and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Inks. Setting the ATC aside and printed out the Balloon Bear image and began coloring with my Copic markers.
Liquid Applique was used to form the clouds, I used a heat gun to make it puff up. For the string on the balloons I used thin metal wire, this photo does not do it justice.
If you like, hop on over to
to join in on the Anything Goes challenge before the end of the month.
These images were entered on the following challenges listed below.
Hope you have been inspired.

APTTC - DEC. SPONSOR DR. DIGI
Hello and welcome to my blog. For the month of December I am the Guest Designer for the challenge happening over at
Our sponsor this month is Dr. Digi and I am using the Hi-Fi-Hugh.
As soon as I saw the image I knew right away what I was going to create. The image was downloaded onto my printer and uploaded it to Canva where I downsized the image to the ATC size I wanted.
The entire image was colored with Copic markers.
The background was 2 1/2" X 3 1/2" white card stock pressed through the Switch machine using a Tim Holtz small brick embossing folder. I then used my Distress Inks, barn door, fired brick and finished around the borders with black soot.
The blue graffiti splatter with the word "ART" was hand drawn.

Janet Klein-Vera Lane - Starry Night Joy Ride
One of my favorite ATC creations. The car is from AALL & Create and the passengers are from different Vera Lane collections that I threw together.
Everything else was hand drawn.
TH distress inks, spiced marmalade, salty ocean, uncharted mariner and black soot inks.
I cut out the 3 window panels to see through them, that took a while and a very sharp exacto knife. A white pen for the stars and copic markers.
Another fun task, btw, my table is a mess. 😜
Stay humble and safe.

Janet Klein-Vera Lane - Emily Anne - Autumn
Sharing my Emily Anne Autumn image from
Vera Lane Studios Digitals.
Here I share a mixed media ATC featuring one of the many Emily Anne images. I began with a blank ATC.
A Leaf stencil by Studio Light. I used Ranger texture paste, allowed it to dry. TH distress ink spiced marmalade throughout the card.
Emily Anne was painted with copic markers.
A Martha Stewart maple leaf stamp was used for the larger leaves, each one was distressed. Some elements from the AALL & Create EP-86 package (lamp post & foreground stones).
Hope you enjoy and thanks for passing by.
