I have been a loooong and ardent admirer of Cheryl's and have had the awesome pleasure to meet and work with this uber talented lady. See the cute basket beside my card? That is some of Cheryls work that I received in a 3D swap with her and a few others a few years ago. It has a treasured spot in my stamp space. Cheryl has outstanding ability with colour, style and paper choices and I was thrilled to see her as today's featured stamper. WOO HOO GIRL!! I chose to case this card: Chilly Tilda by cheryl l rowley at Splitcoaststampers. And I stayed pretty true to her colours and design. I switched to a different Magnolia image (in my mind Cheryl has always held the Queen of Magnolias title left off the ribbon because that doiley took up all my space, and I switched out the holly leaves for a tree. Cheryl, I know you are pretty thrilled, but I am just bustin' being thrilled for you. Not at all an easy job trying to choose a card from your treasures. Congrats my friend, hope to stamp again with you IRL someday.
