It is time for another Gina K. Designs release! I have two samples to preview today using the stamp sets Hang in There and Hope is Faith.
This card uses the Hang in There stamp set by Theresa Momber. The adorable koala bear image was stamped with black ink onto Pure Luxury Ivory cardstock and colored with Copic markers. The koala was colored with E51, W-3, W-5, and 0. The branch was colored with E29, E71, and E77. The Background was colored with G21, YG63, YG67, and YG91.
The word “thanks” was stamped with black ink onto PL Ivory cardstock, trimmed and mounted with dimensionals. For the finishing touch, I added a piece of brown ribbon.
Supplies:
- Stamps: Hang in There (GKD)
- Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento (GKD)
- Paper: PL Ivory (GKD)
- Accessories: Copic markers (GKD), Brown Ribbon (GKD), Dimensionals
These two images are from the Hope is Faith stamp set that was created to raise money for Haiti (see below and Gina’s blog for more info). I crated the colored background using watercolor crayons and a paint brush on PL White cardstock. The butterfly image was stamped over the background with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and a paper pierced trail was made under it.
The PL White cardstock was mounted to a piece of PL Black Onyx cardstock and I trimmed the bottom with a scallop scissors. The cardfront is PL Moonlit Fog and the sentiment was stamped onto PL White cardstock using black ink and mounted with dimensionals to the cardfront. A blue button (new in this release) was added next to the sentiment.
Supplies:
- Stamps: Hope is Faith (GKD)
- Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento (GKD)
- Paper: PL Moonlit Fog (GKD), Black Onyx (GKD), PL White (GKD)
- Accessories: White Ribbon (GKD), Blue Button (GKD), Watercolor Crayons, Paper Piercer, Scallop Scissors, Dimensionals
