Had fun making this card. I took an alcohol ink background that I did a while back, found some vellum and card stock that were close to one of the colors in the background and had some fun with a Hero Arts stamp set.
The colors don’t show up nearly as well in the picture as they do in person. And embossing on Yupo paper, even quickly and far away, causes a bit of bend. Oops!
Thanks for taking a look!
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.
Thought I would share the ones I just uploaded onto my own blog. All descriptions etc are there.
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.
This is my second card to post to March ginakdesigns challenge. I used the Wreath Builder for placement of the large flowers, the flourish, and the leaves.
Stamp sets: Frame and Flowers 1 (large flower), Sending Love (flourish bud), Stippled Flowers (leaves), Birthday Blessings (sentiment, cut apart to stack). The Darice Vine embossing folder was used to add texture to the card base. The card base is SU Sky Blue and is a 5 inch square. I rounded one corner to give a bit of interest. This card is very sparkly as I used a sparkle pen to add a bit of shimmer. Here is the link for the challenge: https://www.ginakdesigns.com/2019/03/01/flower-power-our-march-month-mix-challenge/
Stamps set used: Blossom by Joy Clair, Ink used: Versamark, Paper used: GKD Grass Green, Fresh Asparagus, Used Spellbinders Label Number 9 die, Tombow marker #177
This card will be entered in the Mod Squad Challenge. I struggle with using green, so I pulled out every green piece of paper I owned, then ink, then decided to keep it simple and go with Versamark. I do like the cactus in this stamp set. I think they might be fun to color.

I love the tiny daffodil and clay pot from Window of Wishes by Theresa Momber for Gina K designs. Since the daffodil is flower for March, I thought it was perfect for the Flower Power challenge for March at Gina K. Designs.
I colored the flower and pot with Copics: Y08, Y18, YG01, YG05, E07, Colorless Blender. I cut the White Base Weight focal panel with Gina’s Double Stitch Rectangle. The mat is cut with the Single Stitch Rectangle in Grass Green. The lower panel is Tomato Soup embossed with the Cuttlebug Polka Dot Embossing Folder (5×7). Tip: Don’t use the purple tape to hold the side of the CS that will be face up. The card base is Sweet Corn. The tan was in my stash, cut with Alison’s Ribbon die. The sentiment from Autumn Wishes fit perfectly on the ribbon. On the inside I used a sentiment from Birthday Greetings.
