Hello! Today the Gina K Designs team are show casing two wonderful new stamps sets that are available now! My first card (above) was made using Melanie Muenchinger's gorgeous new set, Basket Additions 2. There are so many wonderful images in this set, all designed to coordinate with Melanie's basket sets. 

Next up is Gina's Lacy Borders set. These delicate lace border will lend a touch of elegance to any set. I heat embossed the lace on this card, then sponged Memento Bamboo Leaves for an emboss resist effect. The sentiment is also from Lacy Borders.

I didn't get the coloring steps photographed on this car, but I wanted to show you how you can frame the images for a different look. After coloring, I cut out the birthday image, separating the gift and balloons, then used a Spellbinders Oval die template to give the bottom a curve.

I cut a piece of white card stock with the same oval Nestabilities die template, then sponged Memento Cantaloupe ink while it was still in the die.

I made another layer, this time using Pure Luxury Lovely Lavender, cut with Labels Eighteen Nestabilities. I sponged Memento Lulu Lavender while it was still in the die.

I layered with Pure Luxury Ivory that I embossed with my Elegance M-Bossabilities™embossing folder. I sponged Memento Cantaloupe ink after embossing. Then I added a layer of Pure Luxury Key Lime and used Vibrant Purple for my card base. I added a buttony bow and a some tiny gems in the corner.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day!
