Shine!

Yay! It’s release day and here’s a look at the complete set and matching Scrapblock I’ve designed for May…
Reach 4 the Stars

Astronomy Scrapblock

Edited to Add…. Just a quick note to tell you there is a great stamp giveaway on the CHF Creative Blog. Check it out before noon today!
I hope you enjoy this new set and scrapblock. They are perfect for masculine designs. Anyone else have a lot of males in the house? I have 5 so this set will be getting a lot of use. I also couldn’t resist using this set for a more feminine look as well. 2009 is the perfect year to release this set. Did you know that this year is the International Year of Astronomy? There is lots of great star-gazing opportunities this summer. I’m planning on taking my kids to a nearby observatory this summer for a special look at the stars.
Shine Brightly

I created this pretty in pink design for my daughter. By adding rhinestones or stamping in pretty pink colors, this stamp set takes on a whole new look. To create the text background, I simply stamped the image repeatedly. I adore text in designs.Make sure you check out the CHF gallery as there are lots of other samples here.You can find Astronomy & Reach 4 the Stars at Cornish Heritage Farms.

Hi Julia,
Your creativity, imagination, use of colour and craftsmanship never cease to amaze me.
Your cards are a miniature wok of art and I am inspired and thrilled by them.
You appear to enjoy a very full life and I think this comes through in your creations.
Thank you for all the beautiful work and for sharing it with all you readers.
Best wishes, Bessie Segal.
Very nice! I love the pink and black combo! Stars are so fascinating!! It fun trying to find the different constellations.
Very, very, nice new set, Julia! I’m always on the lookout for masculine sets.
WOWIE! What great designs and what amazing creations!
such wonderful detail in these stamps
I would never have thought celestial stamps could be made girly but you did it beautifully! Nature is amazing in that it’s ALWAYS beautiful….even after devastating fires, the skeleton of nature is beautiful. The Sea, the mountains, stars, sky, everything. I love nature!
