Gina K Designs Blog Hop Day 2

Today we are featuring two more sets from the August Release Party.  First up…

 

Melanie Muenchinger’s, “Basket Buddies”….

I can’t tell you adorable these puppies and kitties are.. but if you were at the Release Party over on Stamp TV Tuesday night, you saw sooooo many wonderful creations  that the Design Team shared.  I was inspired and I’m sure you were too!!  Today I want to share a card I created using those cute kitties.  I HAD to make one look like a Tuxedo cat because my daughter would never forgive me (she has one.. ha).

 

I started my card with Pure Luxury Black Onyx and then added a layer of White which I layered up with some of the DP from the last Stamp TV kit.  I stamped my kitties on more White and colored them with my Copic markers.  The little cushion my kitties are resting on was stamped on a DP  from the Bright Summer Grunge from Gina K (LOVE when I find paper I had that I forgot about!).  I used my Tim Holtz Retractable Knife to cut just under the kitties' paws and inserted my DP under.  I cut them out using my Labels 16 Nestabilities.  I added some bling to the bottom and found some ribbon that worked perfectly with my DP.

 

Next up Theresa Momber’s, “Heartfelt”….

For my card I went with a very CAS design as I wanted to use the sympathy sentiment and didn’t want anything to flashy. 

I started my card with Pure Luxury Lovely Lilac and layered some Vibrant Violet.  I again used more Lovely Lilac and stamped the branches on with Memento Lulu Lavender.  I stamped my sentiment on White and used Vivid Purple ink and before removing my Ribbon Tags Nestabilities I sponged on more of the Memento Lulu Lavender. 

Now you’ll want to head on over to the rest of the team and see the fabulous creations I KNOW they have to share.  Remember to leave a comment on each blog for a chance to win a free stamp set from Gina K Designs valued at $24.95!! 

Enjoy the hop and have a great day!!! *smile*
