Lovey-dovey and Happy Birthday from Heather
For the next several days, we’ll be featuring projects created with the most recent Penny Black Valentine release – with just a little twist. Our designers will show you a “lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey, lovey-dovey all the time” project, and another project they’ve made for something else, like birthday or just because (not that those can’t be Lovey-Dovey, too!). Let’s see how versatile our new release can be. . .
Penny Black designer Heather Telford’s creations are always beautiful and quite striking, and this lovey-dovey card made with Butterfly Symphony (30-148) is no exception. We love the combination of technique and simply stamped images:
Here, Butterfly Symphony (30-148) was water stamped onto sponged background.
In this birthday card, a butterfly was stamped on each of three layers of vellum over the music background stamp
Butterfly Symphony (30-148), Music Background and Sweet Wishes.
We loved reading which of you liked Elizabeth’s pieces you liked and why, and are curious – do you prefer simple stamping (stamp, cut, add some ribbon), or are y0u more of a technique lover?
Thanks for stopping by today - if you’re looking for more inspiration, please visit our gallery on Flickr and at Splitcoaststampers. You can also find us on Facebook, and on Twitter, too! See you again soon, Jenn











WOW both these cards are amazing. Love the stamping on three layers of vellum. What a wonderful effect.

I LOVE this stampset! Pitty I can not find it in South Africa! I’ve been following your blog for a while now and find it so inspirational along with the Snippets blog! Blessings!
I love both cards, they’re absolutely lovely!!!

I love seeing cards with new (or old, refreshed) techniques. But I love simple cards too! These cards are gorgeous!
Very interesting to see the different interpretations of the one stamp. I love the idea of stamping with water to take away colour so shall have a go at that in due course.

Heather, your butterflies on vellum are simply stunning. Love that technique. Thankyou.
I think theses two cards are awesome. Love techniques.
These cards are fabulous and I love seeing different techniques!
What a beautiful card! I love vellum.
I think I like simple stamping the most (just because of time constraints), but love learning new techniques too!
I LOVE to use techniques, but only if it does not detract from the focal image!
