I'm Guest Designing for Penny Black Saturday Challenge again.
It's such an honor to be a part of that fantastic team!
This challenge is Anything Goes with an option of Your Favourite Colours.
I love so many colors that I can't pick an actual favorite.
Yellow and red always appeal to me. They seem so warm and friendly.
I've stamped one of the birdhouses from one of my NBUS sets onto
mixed media paper, heat embossed and watercolored with Distress Markers and a waterbrush.
I added a bit of doodling around the die cut square and popped on some
die cut branches.
Do check out the Design Teams fabulous creations and join in.
While I had the set out, I used the other birdhouse.

Beautiful colouring and this card definitely makes me smile! Thanks for being such an inspiring GD:)
Tow lovely cards Bonnie - congrats on the guest DT spot (again!!!)x
These cards are precious! The bit of doodling and the die cut branches on the first and the thin frame on the second set off those adorable and beautifully colored images. No wonder you are selected as a PB guest designer!
Charming cards..Loved the doodling.
Two absolutely adorable cards... I'm especially drawn to your 'while it was out' card, Bonnie! Both colored so beautifully!

These birdhouses are so cute and the cardinal with his envelope is adorable. Your doodling added so much to that stitched frame. I thought it was a new PB die! The red and yellow look awesome together and so cheerful. Have a great weekend. Hope you aren't getting all that rain where you are.
Love your different birdhouses and how you used each one, fabulous cards.

They are so lucky to have you, Bon! These designs are so beautifully colored and so sweet. They have me smiling from ear-to-ear! Awesome doodling and I love the added texture of the frilly stems on the first one! Thank you for sharing again at HBUS, although I don't see it in the gallery yet. Hugs, Dolly xxoo
Awwwww...these are both so CUTE and just beautifully colored too Bonnie! And congrats on guesting again at Penny Black...well deserved!! Hugs. :0)
Bonnie, these birdies and their homes are spot on wonderful! Lately, I have noted little nuances in your cards that make them extra special i.e. your choice of greenery on the first, the perfect sentiment on the second. Looking forward for more of your work, "cards to inspire"!
two totally delightful cards mf....so pretty.
hope you are well and have a great wknd.

Great to see you guesting over at Penny Black and two great cards using these pretty birdhouses Bonnie. I love the square on its end and the added white foliage to decorate the bright and pretty image, and that little extra doodling around the frame gives it a folk art feel which goes brilliantly with the design. x
Two beautiful birds with their houses, Bonnie - just love how you colored them!! Congrats on guest designer too!!
such fun images Bonnie, those bird houses are so cute. I must admit the second stole my heart :)
I Love both your Penny Black beautifully colored bird houses and sweet CAS designs. Awesome doodled frame on your 1st card and die cut branches. Congratulations on your Guest Designer honor too. TFS your beauties, my friend. Love and Hugs..Nancy
You know I love this PB bird set! So pretty what you did with the framing and foliage. It's an honor to be a guest designer and I know they're happy to have you and your fabulous cards this month.
These birdhouses are adorable. Both beautifully watercolored and framed. Congratulations once again on GD this month.
Boy it looks as if I am late to the party again. I have always liked Pennsylvania Dutch folk art and this holds with the wonderful use of bright and clear primary colors. I would love to have that birdhouse hanging in my yard. I also love the way you designed that card.
To be honest Bonnie, I think PB is lucky to have you!!!

Ooh! I love birdhouses and you made the prettiest and most colourful ones here Bonnie!
What a wonderful bird house, who wouldn't want to live there. Love the extra detail you have added xx
Wow Bonnie, you have made two very beautiful cards! I'm like you and love color, so hard to pick a favorite or a group of favorites. lol Your first card color choices is perfect. Yellow and red are so warm together and cheery. I love your little bird house and the way you colored it. Love that you made the bird a red too. The doodling around the frame just that little something something and I adore those branch/leaves that you die cut! The second card is so sweet and I love the colors on that one too. The is such a sweet little bird house and I love the background sky. Hugs, Brenda
Both birdhouse cards are so adorable Bonnie! I love the colouring ... especially the first birdhouse that reminds me of a scandinavian design. Those little birdies are so sweet!! xx
Delightful, great stamps and beautifully coloured. Again, perfect for these times to connect with others. xx
Many congratulations on guesting Bonnie x.Card number one is fabulous and the design looks wonderful x. Card number two is contemporary and really very pretty x.
Two cute cards, Bonnie. They are so happy because of the colors you have enriched them with. Penny Black has such cute stamps sets
