Hi there! It's the third and final day of Gina K Inspiration Hops for our May release. Today we are showcasing three new stamp sets from Gina. First up is the new Hello Sunshine Stamp TV Kit. I love all the beautiful images in this kit!
More details about this card below.
Next up is the new Free With Three stamp set, Life's A Beach. You are going to love the fun beachy images in this set. To see how you can earn this set,
click here. You even get to choose if you want rubber or clear!
I'll post the tutorial for this card later this week or early next week.
My third card uses images from a wonderful new sentiment set called Birthday Greetings. The birthday sentiments in this set are so versatile, you'll be able to use them with any of your other Gina K images. I combined a Birthday Greetings sentiment with my new set, Under The Sea on this card.
There are also wonderful verses that can be used for both the inside and outside of cards. I stamped the inside of my card with one of the Birthday Greetings verses and then added a fish stamped in blue.
I'll be posting the tutorial for this card later, also.
The Design Team for Gina K. Designs welcomes you to another fabulous Inspiration Blog Hop!!! Gina and the Design Team will inspire you with many beautiful ideas! And as you hop through their blogs, make sure to leave a comment on each of them because we will choose a few random comments and those stampers will each win a grab bag of deeply etched, pre-cut Gina K. Designs stamps! To see the full list of winners check the Big News forum at Stamp TV a couple of days after the hops!!
For more inspiration, check out the following designers…
I cut a piece of Pure Luxury White card stock to 2 1/2 by 3 3/4 inches and sponged Memento Summer Sky ink.
Sponged Memento Danube Blue ink.
Sponged Memento Paris Dusk.
Next, I stamped the silhouette flower image, from the Hello Sunshine Stamp TV Kit.
Then I stamped a silhouette branch, using Memento Paris Dusk, but stamped off on scratch paper first to make the image lighter.
I layered with Pure Luxury Black Onyx. The
4 ¼ by 5 ½ inch card base is Pure Luxury Baby Boy Blue. I used my Score-Buddy to score some decorative lines in two corners. The sentiment was stamped on white and cut out, then adhered with Pop Dots.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day!
