New Kim Hughes Release

I'm SO excited about this latest Kim Hughes release at Cornish Heritage Farms. The designs are fantastic!

The two new sets are:

U R A Hoot

and

Bold Curls

Here's a card I created using U R A Hoot.

The branch for the little owls is in the set... and has the Paisley Backgrounder pattern on it (so clever!!!). I added a free form tree with the same pattern to give our owls a bit more to cling to. I used the same Paisley backgrounder for the sky. Both were originally stamped in color on white paper. It was just a little too stark for me, so I sponged ink of the same color over to soften the design.

I also used a Sakura Black Glaze pen for their eyes. I'd stamped the owls in black and colored with Copics. What I find is that copics are very vibrant, and even my best stamping leaves a bit of white showing through the black ink. To give the same vibrant look, I filled in with the black glaze... and they have a bit of shine as a side benefit.

Be sure to stop by the CHF gallery for all the other designs for these two sets. I'll share another project with you soon too.

Thanks for stopping by,
