Our MMSC39 weekly Bonus sponsor is..... Faith from
Cornish Heritage Farms (CHF) is owned & run by Richard & Liz Pomeroy. Why the name? Richard & Liz are originally from Cornwall, England hence the Cornish Heritage & the 'Farms' is the 100 acre farm in north central Montana where they live & where all the stamps are manufactured. Richard & Liz believe in producing a high quality product so all the stamps are deeply etched, red rubber. CHF is a diverse stamp company in the fact that it consists of a variety of different licenses & styles, ranging from very detailed (Thomas Kinkade) to simple line art (Tom Fun Collection) therefore offering something for everyone.
My card this week is using one of Faith's sweet digi images called Beary Good. The image is supposed to have a plate of cookies for Santa but as I decided to make it into a Valentine's card the cookies didn't make it....No I didn't eat them... they just disappeared!!! Ha ha! I colored the little bear in prismacolored pencils and added some stickles to add a little sparkle. The dp is by DCWV called Be Mine. Flowers are from Prima, gems and ribbon from JoAnn's.
Thank you to all you lovely crafters who left sweet comments for me last week, I so appreciate them. I have had some computer issues unfortunately when I visited other blogs, and it's becoming a daily occurance, so if I haven't commented on your cards I do apologize. I'm trying to figure out what I can do about it to prevent the problems from occuring! Thank you for your patience!
