Gina K Designs Guest Designer

February 25, 2021

Hey hey peeps. I’m super excited to be Gina K Designs Guest Designer this month. I simply adore Gina and her amazing team. Gina’s products are some of the prettiest in the craft community and she is one heck of a sweet and caring human being.

My card is featuring the Some Bunny stamp set and coordinating dies. Oh this stamp set truly reminds me of Easter. I remember getting my Easter basket each year and couldn’t wait to dig into the jelly beans, marshmallow Peeps and colorful Easter eggs.  This stamp set brings me back to a sweet time in my life. This card was so much fun to make with all the bright and happy colors inks from Gina K. Designs.

 

Using all the eggs, I stamped them in rainbow of colors on my card for my card. Diecutting them out helped to create a border on my card. I also sponged on a fun circle background using the Rina K Designs Sending Sunshine stencil in the same colors of ink.

Stamping a simple sentiment down the middle of my card kept my card colorful and bright. I love layering bright colored cards on black cardstock. It just makes the color pop even more.

 

For a bit of added interest I pulled out some colorful jewels in matching colors for a little bit of sparkle on my card.  Make sure to head on over to the Gina K. Designs blog to see more of the more inspiration from the release.  Thank you Gina for giving me the chance to be a guest designer for this release. I’ll be back with another card tomorrow from the release. Have a great day everyone.

Gina K Designs and Pear Blossom Press Collaboration

November 4, 2020

Welcome to the Let’s Glow hop with Gina K Designs and Pear Blossom Press! We’re sharing beautiful cards with a double-wow factor; they feature the beautiful stamps and dies you can only find from Gina K, and they all light up! (Don’t worry, that part is easy with the help of Pear Blossom Press’ EZ-Lights.) Be sure to hop along with us for lots of inspiration; our designers have come up with some gorgeous cards…

 

Using the Gina K Designs Holiday Trees stamp set I lined a card panel with one of the trees from the stamp set in Gina K. Designs Grass Green ink. I was careful to mask off each tree so there was no overlap of cover. Once I had the trees stamped, I colored in the sky using my BG0000 and BG000 Copic maker.

Carefully freehanding a snow bank with my scissors I place it under the trees and stamped the Merry Christmas and press me in Gina K. Designs Lipstick ink. The press me sentiment is from Heffy Doodle Interactively Yours stamp set. Adding just a touch of glitter along the snow bank makes my card sparkle.

Now it was time to assemble my card. Pulling out a small circle punch I punched out a few of the small circles on the trees. Behind those hole I placed a piece of vellum and attached my Easy Lights. I placed the battery pack under the press me and adhered it with double sided tape. I layered this panel with foam tape and placed it on a card panel that was lined with red card stock.

Adding just a few gems to the tree and my card was complete.  This card was sooo easy to put together and the addition of the lights makes it just perfect. Here is a video from Pear Blossom Press showing how to us their EZ Lights.

Every good hop has prizes, right? So Gina K Designs, and Pear Blossom Press are each giving away a $50 store credit! Comment on this post by November 11, 2020 to be entered to win. The winner of the Gina K Designs credit will be announced on their blog on November 18, and the winner of the Pear Blossom Press credit will be announced the same day, on their blog. Next on the hop is Beth Silaika.

Gina K. Designs Holiday Hexagons and Sentimental Holiday

October 21, 2020

Hey everyone.  I’m super excited to be sharing Gina K. Designs Holiday Hexagons and Sentimental Holiday stamp sets. These stamp sets are full of holiday spirits and both stamp sets work perfectly together. Let’s check out the card I made.

Keeping in the traditional holiday colors I used Gina K. Designs Grass Green and Coral Reef with a pop of gold.  I am so in love with how this card turned out. Stamping the snowflakes in a solid color and then am ombre’ of both colors really makes a statement. Popping up a gold snowflake in the center of the panel really shows the elegant design of this stamp set.

Gina K Designs Holiday Hexagons and Sentimental Holiday

 

Here’s a few closeups of the cards. Filling in around the snowflakes with the sequin shaped stamps I was able to add just a touch more gold to the card.

We also need tags for the holidays right? So why not create one your gift recipient will love. On this tag I used the Sentimental Holiday stamp set. Keeping with the same color combination as the card above this tag is a sure winner. This stamp set is full of beautiful sentiments for all your holiday cards and tags.

Matching my tag also to my card keeps my gift giving simple and stylish.

Now onto my card and tutorial.  If you have been following me on Instagram, you know I’m a champagne lover especially during the holidays.  So this year I turned my love of my favorite champagne into a card.

I absolutely love how this card came out.  The gold on the green looks stunning.  Keeping the card clean and simple really works for this design.

Had to share the bottle label with the card.  If you love champagne let me know which kind you like.  I would love to try something new.

Here’s the tutorial on how this card came together.  You can watch it here or over on my Youtube channel. All products I used are listed below.  Affiliate links are used at no cost to  you.  Thanks for supporting my channel.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I’ll see you back here with more inspiration soon!  Take care and Happy New Year.
