Honoring someone deceased with a blog post of their creative inspiration is the least that one can do. Penny O'Dell, mom, grandmother, paper crafter and member of the design team passed on from this world on December 13th, 2015.
Enjoy this final posting of Penny's beautiful creations...
Birthday Poppy Card, Always and Forever Feathered Daisy Card

Penny and I were teammates for over a year, and I loved her right from the start. She was such an open and giving person. She never missed her weekly visit to my blog where she always left a loving and thoughtful comment. We quickly became "blog buddies" and shared encouragement, tips and prayers with one another. She had a beautiful soul and was passionate about her family and her art. She leaves a huge hole in the blogging community. I shall truly miss our little weekly "chats." My heartfelt condolences to her precious family. May the Lord comfort and bless you during this difficult time.

My heart aches especially for her four children, praying especially for her husband and children, but also for all of her family and for everyone Penny's life touched. I'm grateful that she shared her artistry with all of us with the assistance of Heartfelt Creations. I hope that HC will consider setting up a permanent gallery of her work, so that we can look upon it anytime. As always, I am impressed with the team at HC, and their ability to recognize truly special artistic talent like Penny's, for your design team is wonderful!
Praying also for the design team and all of Heartfelt Creation staff who also knew and loved Penny. My heart aches for your loss, especially saddened for Penny's children and husband.
