For years I have been lettering, doodling and painting for fun. Creating brings joy and peace to my heart. I finally heard the voice of GOD through the mouths of some very dear friends..."share your gift with others."  We often take for granted the things that come easy to us. Talents are blessings and should be shared!

​

1Peter 4:10

As each one has received a gift,

use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace.

Why tinted pearl designs? 

I had every intention of naming my business cmb designs. I have been using cmb designs for years as a freelancer from home. When I searched for a website name, cmb designs was taken, as was just about every other version of my name or initials with designs or creatives! So, I had to come up with a new name. Honestly, it took me a while. I wanted the name to connect me and the message my designs speak. I threw around some flower names and other ideas. I prayed to Mary, I knew she'd help me. She led me to one of my favorites:

​

Proverbs 31:10

When one finds a worthy wife, her value is far beyond pearls.

​

​

And there it was. "Pearl"...which also happens to be my birthstone. "Tinted" because I take a white surface and add color to tint, to make something original with my

GOD-given gift.

​

Since 2020 I've been producing my own products, selling direct and wholesale to a variety of retailers, both bulk and custom designs. My goal for 2025 is to increase my licensing partnerships, fostering new relationships to bring my art to a broader audience.

Cheers, Christine
