Jennifer and Jenn... my favourite stampers.

I'm spending my days dreaming up cards for my day on the Hero Arts blog.  The pressure...  So in the meantime, I created a couple of cards inspired by my 2 favourite stampers.

Firstly, Jennifer McGuire.  She posted this card today based on this one by Shari Carroll.  Both cards are stunning.  I wanted to make a card for Jennifer, just to say Hi.  She's such a lovely and inspiring person.


Supplies:  Stamps - Hero Arts (Screen Shadow, Flowers, Scallop, Hello); Papers - Bazzill (Swiss Dot) and Pebbles Ink (Baby Pink Dot); Pearls - Crystal Stickers; Inks - Versamagic (Pixie Dust and Pink Petunia).  Various circle punches and Kraft paper also used.

And then I made a card based on this amazing one by Jenn Biederman.  Jenn's talent blows me away.  Every card she makes is jaw-droppingly good AND she's just the sweetest person.  


Supplies:  Stamps - Hero Arts (Birthday, Bunny,Trees); Papers -Bo Bunny (Double Dot Powder Blue) and Pebbles Ink (Spring Green Dot)

Jenn's style is VERY difficult to imitate!

I'm on with loads of exciting Caardvarks projects too.  The next few months' challenges are going to be awesome.  Technically, I should be preparing for my wedding, but the stamps are calling me....

P.S.  Edited to add that I have started adding descriptions to the products I use and some links.  I hope it's helpful. :)

You are quite impressive, Miss Lucy! Juggling so much at one time. You've captured both Jennifer and Jenn's style well, and still managed to put your style in! :)
