Gina K / Faber-Castell Blog Hop Day 5

 

 
Welcome to Day 5 of the Gina K. Designs/Faber-Castell Blog Hop!  We've got another incredible day of inspiration for you, so lets get started! Don't forget to keep those comments coming to enter to win a Gina K. Designs stamp set of your choice (up to a $24.95 value)
 
 
Pop over to the Faber-Castell Blog and leave a comment for a chance to win a Designing With Gelatos Kit, too!


 So I looked at the package of Faber-Castell 50's Diner gelatos and I had to decide how I could tackle this latest designing hurdle:  figure out how to use these products and then make something that will not be totally embarrassing! I watched a few Youtube videos and decided that it was going to be simple!  I took a piece of Gina K. white card stock and punched out the snowflakes.  I colored with the Aqua Dolce gelato and then smeared it with my fingers. It was like a hazy misty sleet background! Not Bad. I kind of like it!  I adhered it with foam squares on top of the kraft, with small pieces of white behind the main image.  I covered the negative images with stickles and stamped "celebrate" from Lots of Lines in black ink.  A few dew drops and I was pretty happy with the result!  What do you think?


Here was the hop order (just don't want you to miss any of the "Fab"er-Castell projects (get it FAB!)

does anyone remember Red & Stimpy?  This is my Happy Happy, Joy Joy card using Let It Snow by Theresa Momber. Asparagus & Kraft ink on asparagus card stock. 

A real clean & simple card using Tami's Winter Blocks set. The blue square reminds me of an ice cube! Added a few dew drops to make it look like melting snowflakes!
