So, let's move on with the last preview!  Introducing the new "Free with Three" set.....

Framed Greetings...

I LOVE the flowers and butterfly added to this awesome label.  It coordinates with the Nestabilities Label 16 set. I stamped my image and used the Nesties to cut it out.  

My card base is Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight Sweet Corn.  I layered it with Innocent Pink and a piece of DB from the Basic Grey Curio collection.  My image was colored with Copic markers and I added a bit of Tim Holtz Distress Ink Antique Linen sponged around the edges.  I used Pop Dots to raise it up for a bit of dimension.  I used a piece of lace along the bottom and added an ivory flower.

This frame can be used with so many other items and sentiments inside it other than the ones it comes with; I know you will enjoy having it in your collection.

Make sure to head over to the Release Party tonight on Stamp TV to see another card I created using this set!

Gina K February Preview Day 3!!!

It's Day 3 and the fabulous sets from Gina K Designs just keep coming!!!  You're ready for more, right??? Of course you are!!!  Let's get started!!!  Up first is Tami Mayberry's set...


Live, Life, Loud...

I cannot begin to tell you how excited I was to see this set!!! Both my kids are into playing several instruments so I was thrilled to be able to show these to them AND create some special cards for them!! 

My card base is as "loud" as I could find.  Hee Hee  I used Gina's Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight Passionate Pink!  I layered it with Black Onyx and some Wild Dandelion and then another layer of Black Onyx.  I used the brightest pastels I could find and streaked it across my black card stock.  Then using my Versamark, I stamped my images.  You can find how to do the Pullin Pastels technique HERE on Stamp TV.  I added a BIG, LOUD flower to the top to finish off my card.  My daughter was soooo excited to receive this... she's the drummer in the family.  :-)

You will be seeing many more from this set on my site for sure!! 

Let's keep going!!  Now Nina Brackett's newest set...


Christ Is Risen...

 

I again decided to go bright with my card!!  Since Valentine day was so near, I decided I could use Nina's set to make a "different" Valentine card.  I again used my Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight in white.  I stamped my image in Vivid Ink in Purple.  My "Love" was stamped using Vivid, Brick Red.  I used my Nestabilities Label 1 to cut out my image.  I then mounted it on a layer of Red Hot Pure Luxury and a layer of Vibrant Violet.  A swirl or two of bling and another big bright flower finish off my card.  

I hope you are coming to the Release Party on Thursday, Feb. 17, on Stamp TV, so I can share with you my "vintage" design I used Nina's set on.  I think this will be a very versatile set and will be a great addition to your stamp collection.

Gina K February Preview Day 2!!!

Soooo.... are you ready for more???  Are you just loving all the Gina K Designs February previews?? Well, let's not waist anymore time and keep on with the show!!!!  First up... Theresa Momber's  newest....

Little Critters....

I ABSOLUTELY could NOT resist putting a "hug" sentiment with this adorable hedgehog!! Hee Hee  I started my card with Gina's Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight Kraft paper and stamped my image in Memento Rich Cocoa.  I initially thought I'd leave it and make a monochromatic card but then the Copics took over my brain!! LOL  My adorable hedgehog was also stamped in the Memento Rich Cocoa and I cut it out using my Nestabilities Label 14.  I sponged on some Tim Holtz Distress ink, Antique Linen around the edges, added a ribbon across the bottom and some copper self-adhesive nail heads. 

Next up... Asela Hopkins...


Chocolate Bunnies...

 

Ok so for those of us watching our weight and working out... YUM!!!!  If you can't eat the chocolate bunnies... might as well stamp a few!!!  Hee 

These bunnies are totally what Easter was all about for me as a kid!!!  OMGosh to get a SOLID chocolate bunny was the best!!!! :-)

My card base is Pure Luxury Innocent Pink.  I layered on some Chocolate Brown card stock and a piece of DP from the Basic Grey Hopscotch paper pack.  My scalloped border is from the Nestabilities Classic Scalloped Border Petites.  Instead of leaving the "holes" in this border I filled them each in with a rhinestone.  I then added texture by running it through my Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. 

My bunny was stamped using the Pullin Pastels technique that you can find over on Stamp TV Video site.  I LOVE that my brown chalk looks like cocoa!

Gina K Designs February Preview!!!

Are you ready???? Are you really??? I've heard lots of whispers from those Gina K Designs fans wondering where the February Releases are. Well... today's your day!!! THEY'RE HERRRREEEEE!!! Woot Woot!!

Today we start the February previews with Melanie Muenchinger's newest set...

Spring Basket....

OMGosh...  I got going with this adorable basket and I am telling you... I couldn't stop filling it!!!  My first card I couldn't help but debut it in purple!!!  I used Pure Luxury Vibrant Violet for my card base.  I layered a piece of Wild Dandelion and more violet.  My image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copic markers.  I stamped the tulips and daffodils separately and pieced them together arranging them so they appeared to be freshly picked from my garden.  :-)  I mounted my basket of flowers to my Nestabilities Beaded Oval and used Tim Holtz Milled Lavender Distress Ink to bring out the "beads" a bit more.  I added a sheer flower print bow to my basket and rumbled the ends to make it appear to be flowing on my basket.

For my next card, I used Melanie's coordinating set....

Basket Blessings....

 

How cute are these animals??!!!  I am guessing by now you have seen many paper pieced stuffed animals and I admit, I HAD to use various yummy DP's to stamp these adorable images on.  As luck would have it... I needed just a card like this yesterday for my niece's baby shower!  

I began stamping my images onto the DP's and cut them out and paper pieced them back together.  Though it's hard to see in my photo, I stamped the basket and colored just along the sides a small amount of grey Copic marker to give it just a hint of a shadow because I wanted my basket to remain white.  My basket "liner" was also stamped on DP before added.  I used my Lacey Circle Nestabilitie to make my card base and shape.  My card base is Pure Luxury White and I layered with some Innocent Pink which I ran through my Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dot folder.  Everything was popped up on the card base using Pop Dots. 

The inside of my card shows a flower image also from the Spring Basket set which I colored with Copics and added a small self-adhesive pearl to the center.

Have a Ducky Trip!

I have been eyeing this duck for some time now. I just love him and I KNOW Spring is not far away so I cannot wait any longer to throw him into action again!! Hee Hee

My card base is Gina K's Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight Ocean Mist and I layered it with a piece of Kraft.  My old world map was a piece I found in my stash and I layered a torn piece of Springtime In Paris, Digital Paper across it all.

My image is from Rupa Shevde's, "Spring has Sprung".  I colored it with my Copic markers and cut it out and mounted it with Pop Dots.  I added a few self-adhesive copper nail heads to the corners. 

I hope you are having a wonderful Saturday.  I have both kids being judged at their piano festivals today so I'll be starting a bit late at My Studio but I don't mind.  ;-)

Thanks for stopping by.  *smile*

You Know What Friday Means???

You got it!  Another Color Challenge over on Stamp TV!!!  Here are Gina's colors for this week...

My image is from Rupa Shevde's, "Guiding Light" set from Gina K Designs.  I colored it with my Copic markers and used my Deckled Rectangle Nesties to cut it out.  I then mounted it on top of a Big Scallop Nestie rectangle using Pop Dots to mount them to my DP.

My card base is the Pure Luxury Moonlit Fog layered with the Sweet Mango and White.  AND check out that DP... how did I ever get so lucky to find orange and gray DP!!  Ha, my Secret Sister from last Christmas sent me a pack of DP and I LOVE LOVE it!!!  That is where this piece came from. Sorry, I don't know the name of it off the top of my head. 

My image is from Rupa Shevde's, "Guiding Light" set.  I lightly colored it with my Copic markers and cut it out using my Deckled Rectangle and Big Scallop Rectangle Nestabilities. 

When you play along with Gina's challenges and load them to the StampTV gallery, you get a chance to win a FREE stamp set valued at $24.95 from Gina K Designs!!!  I hope you play along and remember, if you use a Gina K set, you get your name thrown in the drawing TWICE!!  Don't forget to add the tag listed above to your post when you upload your creation.
