Guest Designer: Birgit
With a unique and artistic style, we are pleased to announce a special guest all this week…
My name is Birgit Edblom and I live in the north of Sweden. I´ve 3 boys, all grown up, and two lovely grandchildren. I work as a teacher of sociology and psychology at an upper secondary school. I like to do a lot of things, from interpreting the meanings of dreams to driving snowmobile! I´ve always loved handicraft and I think this hobby is so inspiring and relaxing. I love Penny Black’s great range of stamps and the high quality of their products. I´m honored to be a guest designer and love to create with Penny Black products!
The honor is all ours, Birgit! And for all of our readers, be sure to pop over to Birgit’s blog. You won’t be disappointed! Shall we start things off with a Christmas Hug today? We think so!
And here’s another *bonus* color variation:
Lots of white and just a touch of color sure makes this sweet image come to life.

Although the coloring is minimal but both cards are beautifully executed!
Omg!! Congrats on being a GD and I LOVE your cards!! Such simple but sweet designs!! Thanks for sharing abd have a Fabulous Week!! 😉
These are both delightful but it’s the second one that caught my eye especially for the soft colouring of the bear looks wonderful with the deep red colour used. The depth created by the bear’s back is exquisite.
