Cherry Hill Design

Hi Everyone! I'm excited to be featured on the Penny Black blog today. If you haven't had a chance please go check it out. A different Penny Black designer is being showcased each day so you don't want to miss out!  I'm totally excited about the card I'm going to share with you today for several reasons. I started with my favorite owl stamp  and decided he needed a butterfly friend. I love owls! I also want to point out that I made my own text paper! How cool is that?!?! Penny Black has a ton of great sentiments that you can use to make your own text. I used the sentiments set and stamped the small words from the happy birthday sentiment over and over again. I can't wait to try this again! Hope you have a great day! Owl Happy Birthday: Nocturne 3936F, Sentiments 30-025, Salutations 30-014

Hi Everyone! I have some pretty exciting news to share with you tonight! I received a phone call this afternoon and was invited to be a part of the Penny Black design team! There stamps are SO cute and fun to play with. I can't tell you how excited I am about this opportunity!!! Here is my first card design for them. I also created a scrapbook page (can you believe it) that I will share in the next couple of days. When I saw THIS owl he had to be mine! I love him! It felt natural to me to make him hold something so I found this little cupcake to put in his hand. I also have to point out THIS stamp set. It is so versatile! I used it to create the background grid design, the diamonds on the green paper AND for the sentiment. The final detail was adding the recipient's name (my brother Adam) with white ink on the blue paper. I did this using the Robust Upper Case alphabet set. Have a great night!
