Thursday Challenge - Lucky Penny day! - WINNER Ellie!!

Moderator: Golda

When I was a kid and I would find a penny on the ground, I would say "Find a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck". I don't know if it brought me good luck but I had a shiny new penny in my pocket and in those days you could purchase penny candy with just a penny so I guess that is pretty lucky! May 23, is Lucky Penny day and today's challenge is to create a spinner card using just 2 little pennies!

Here is an example:

This was my Valentine I gave to my sweetie, the little red heart moves and spins back and forth:

I have also included a couple of video's on how to make these charmers!

Barry, what a sweet Valentine card! I have never made a slider card - shocking, I know! Looking forward to playing. Barry, you're giving away your age since penny candy hasn't been a penny in a lot of years!

Barry, that is a fantastic card. I love how you are having us celebrate Lucky Penny Day, too. :D Can't wait till this weekend when I can get rollin' on this and the rest of the challenges.

Barry, that is such a sweet card and I am looking forward to trying this. I still always pickup pennies if I see them. I think it's bad luck if you don't. I would always go to the little store down the street and buy me some penny candy, sometimes you could get two for one...

Your card is very pretty, Barry. I have only made a spinner once before and it was years ago. Thanks for including a tutorial.

Barry, I'll bet your sweetie liked that great interactive card!
As for penny candy, my favorite was Bazooka gum. Loved the "free" comic and joke, plus I could blow jynormous bubbles! Thanks for the memory and the fun challenge.
