Hey peeps. I’m so excited to be a part of the Ink On 3 and Gina K Designs collaboration blog hop. There are so many talented people on this amazing hop. Let me share with you some information before I get into my card. Make sure you comment on each of the designers blog for your chance to win. Ink On 3 and Gina K Designs are giving away a $5o gift cards to their stores. Thanks Fleurette and Gina for being so generous. Make sure to comment by Thursday as a winners will be announced on Friday on the Ink On 3 blog and Gina K Designs blog.
For my post today I have a tutorial and an extra card to share. My first card I used the new Ink On 3 Bad and Boujee stamps and coordinating dies along with the Gina K Designs Leafy Stencil die and white glitz glitter gel. My tutorial will show you how this card came together.
Here’s a quick tutorial. You can watch it here or over at my Youtube channel mzdanajoy. I’ve used affiliate links for your convenience at no cost to you.
For my next card I keep the focus on the beautiful flowers from the Gina K Designs Vibrant Bloom stamp set and keep the sentiment simple with one of the sentiments from the Ink On 3 Bad and Boujee stamp set.
My card was stamped with juicy ink and heat embossed with Ink On 3 Arctic White embossing powder on Gina K Designs black card stock. I stamped out an additional flower and colored it with my polychromo color pencils and ran it through my die cut machine with the matching die. For my sentiment I also stamped it with juicy ink and heat embossed it in white. Trimming down this piece into a sentiment strip was a perfect way to add the sentiment. I adhered my floral panel to a white card base made out of Gina K white card stock. Popping up the flower and sentiment gave my card some dimension. Added texture and piazza was achieved by the addition of liquid pixie dust to all the flowers, a touch of white splatter made with gouache and a few colorful dots of Nuvo drops in orange and red.
Now it’s time to hop around. PLEASE make sure to leave a comment on each of the designer’s blogs. Also, if you would like, share their designs on your Facebook page or Instagram making sure to give credit to the design.

Happy hopping and I hope you enjoy yourself. Good luck everyone.
![Hello everyone. I hope you are having a wonderful Thursday. Unfortunately I will not be able to complete my holiday card series this year. The strain of sitting in my craft room for long periods of time is causing my back to endure more pain. In August I had my second back surgery in 18 months and was hopeful that my back pain would be resolved. My healing process has been a LOT SLOWER than I had anticipated and while trying to rush back to crafting, I am not doing my body any good.
With that being said, I am trying to keep my spirits positive and create the best I can right now. That means limiting my time in my room and resting my body. On top of everything I ended up with Covid a month ago and I still have lingering side effects. However I have a strong faith and I know this is just a hiccup in the road of life. Things will be better, my body will heal and I will be refreshed to return to the crafting I have loved for over 20 years. Feel free to catch up on my precious holiday card series in my playlist to keep you going on your holiday cards. Link In bio.
I wish each and every one of you a Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday and let's bring in the New Year healthy! Until then, stay safe and I'll see you back here soon!
P.S. I did try Amber's @ [17841400753513434:@damasklove] felt holiday wreath while sitting on the couch. Oh SOOO cozy!
