Gina K. Designs Blog Hop: Just a note!


Today is the last day of the Gina K. Designs blog hop for the month! What a fun release this has been.  Today we are featuring Just A Note by Rupa Shevde.

This first card is super easy to create, but what a great sentiment! I used innocent for the image and black for the sentiment. What a great card to send to a friend who might need a pick-me-up!



This next card uses the envelope from Just a note and the sentiment. I colored the envelope with copics.


 This final card features the guitar from the set, along with the hexagon images from Lots of Washi, along with the 8 and rocks from Lots of Dots Alphabet.  Super fun card which I made for Debbie's daughter, Molly!

Gina K. Blog Hop: Signs of Spring & Folk Filigree

The first card features the sentiment from Theresa's set, along with a fun border using Lots of Washi. I used a few  black sequins to give the card some bling!
 
This next card was created using a white base and a dark sage element, stamped with white ink. The sentiment is also from Theresa's set and stamped with white ink. I used some microscopic pearls on some of the leaves and created some bakers twine. 
Becky's stamp set is quite fun, so it is easy to create some adorable clean & simple cards.  Here is a card using the banner and sentiment from her set, along with some micro black gems.

This is a clean and simple valentine using Becky's set. You and Me are all separate sentiments in the set - as is the heart, which is stamped in cherry red. A little bakers twine at the top tied in a bow finished the card!
 The wreath and elements are from Becky's Folk Filigree set, but the sentiment is from Melanie's set - how cute does that look with a little baker's twine on the bottom?

Gina K. Blog Hop: Introducing Stately Flowers 8, Lots of Washi


 Today I am featuring this month's stamp sets which includes Melanie's Stately Flowers 8 and my Lots of Washi



The first card features the beautiful sentiment from Melanie's set.  I love this verse!  I stamped it in black, and then added a band using Lots Of Washi.
 The iris is one of my favorite flowers. I stamped it it black and used a watercolor pen and Gina K. inks. The sentiment is also from her set. 
This card features the conjoined circles and a sentiment from Stippled Nature. Super simple and clean.

 This card features Lots of Dots & Lots of Washi. I stamped the dots and sentiment from Stately Flowers in grey ink and the conjoined circle layers in sweet corn. I used a button and some custom bakers twine on the ribbon.


 This card features the sentiment from Lovely Ladybugs. The pink passion banner features a stamp from Lots of Washi.

 I made this valentine with my new stamp set Lots of Washi.

I stamped the circle strip with versamark on the 2.5 x 3.5 artist trading card size piece of card stock.  I printed the sentiment on white card stock and added some hearts with Becky's new Folk Filigree set.


These are mini whoopee cushions - the perfect valentine gift for a

  4th grade boy to give out to his classmates! A shout out to Heather Courtney who shared a Pinterest link about whoopee valentines! Thanks my crafty friend!

Here is a card which I created faux washi tape strips using Lots of Washi & Lots of Dots. The sentiment is from Signs of Spring by Theresa Momber. The frame is from Lots of Dots Alphabet. A few sequins adorn the card to give it some sparkle!



Finally, here is a card which I created with Lots Of Washi and Lots of ThanksIt uses custom bakers twine.  I made a video showing the process of creating this card.  Hope you like it!




I cannot wait to share more of the ideas with you next week during our design team hop! See you tonight at the release party!
