One of my favorite GKD stamp sets is Bold & Blooming which is going out to someone special. I also used GKD’s Dazzling Dahlia for the sentiment. I think I could have used a larger sentiment to fill in more of the white space area. Card base is blue lagoon and layered with turquoise sea and white card stock. I stamped this with my favorite go VersaFine Onyx Black ink to which I added clear embossing powder and heat set ,added a few sequins and my Stampin up! colored pencils.
The April Monthly Mix Challenge over at Gina K Designs is ombre ink blending. This is my third attempt but hopefully it fits the challenge. I used GKD’s Elegant Florals and Stippled Flowers for the sentiment, cardstock used was dusty rose, slate and pure white pure luxury.
A selection of my Easter cards this year include a well used set from Pretty Pink Posh. I love the frame die which cut beautifully and the egg designs…whew a lot of coloring for me but they were fun to create. I also have a sweet little Easter Lucy from C.C. Designs and an old stand by from GKD’s Asela Hopkins Chocolate Bunnies. A peek-a-boo egg card for some little ones was also Pretty Pink Posh.
I’m finally getting around to posting some more cards and would like to begin with this one featuring my newest stencil thanks to our wonderful Stamping Buddies Bonnie. The image is from GKD’s Blooming with Blessings stamp set as well as the card stock and ink. I also used Hero Arts’s Happy Stamp and Cut set layering it and offsetting as well as coating the Happy with some glossy accents. My puddle is glue and glitter.
Congrats to this sweet little boy. His parents are Navy Chiefs and hope they enjoy my play on the stars and stripes.
A special 1st Birthday for a friend’s granddaughter. ONE is the outside and the inside used an embossing folder as well as balloons from Mama Elephant and sentiments is GKD’s Doodle Sayings. Martha Stewart trio butterfly punch and Momenta alphabet die.
Outside and inside cards for my son in law’s birthday. Amazing at just how old these kids are getting. I came across this old set (possibly an Inkadinkadoo) and thought it would be fun to use.
A clean and simple sympathy card that is focusing on embossing folder and dies.
P.S. Bonnie this is a second post since I forgot to click my name so not sure what happened to the original…oops…sorry! Lol.
A new grandson for one of my girlfriends. I found this adorable giraffe from my stash, die cut the letters using Concord & 9th’s double cut alphabet dies, sizzix embossing folder and GKD card stock.
