Designer Swap & Another Giveaway!

Oh my gosh!  How fun was yesterday!?  And today is gonna' be just as inspiring 'cause Lisa and I have swapped another pair of designers!  

Please help me welcome another fabulously talented Hero Arts designer- Jennifer McGuire!  We all love to follow Jennifer's work on the Hero Club Blog, her own blog, and anyplace else we can find her!  And today ... you can find her right here!

*****************************************************************************************************************************


I love how Jennifer used scraps of Petite Gingham cardstock in multiple colors as a background for the Chrysanthemum!   

 And it's colored in such a lovely way, with just a hint of sparkle!  So pretty!

****************************************************************************************************************************


So simple and so, so cute!  It's a perfect, everyday greeting for anyone, but how great would a set of notecards like these be for end of the year teacher gifts too! 

Just a hint of gloss adds a fun touch to the pencil!

****************************************************************************************************************************


From the embossed and sanded polka dots, to the Petite Gingham cardstock, I love all the texture Jennifer added!  And the subtle sparkle in the palm leaves and sand adds just the right pop!

****************************************************************************************************************************

 
More texture and lotsa' bling - gotta' love it!  The different colored Twinkle Stickers on the flowers are really striking!  An unexpected element that really grabs your attention!

*****************************************************************************************************************************

I always have trouble with embellishments as I don't know what to add... but ribbon and buttons are pretty much a go-to idea!

[Cindy Lee]

I love buttons! There always seems to be a place on a card for a button. Glitter would have to be a close second.

Gingham and 3-D texture....what a winning combination! Keep up the good work!!

Jennifer's cards are so cute, as always! If I had to pick just one embellishment, I would have to say gems.

Hard to pick my favorite embellishment, but guess I'd have to say glitter. I also love pearls and gems. Wonderful ideas here!

[Leigh McMinn]

There are so many times I'd like to say "thanks" to my son's kindergarten teacher, and now I say "thanks" to you for the great pencil card idea! They will make the perfect little gift to show my appreciation to her.
