Instead of releasing new stamps this month, Gina K. Designs has decided to motivate your creativity with the Gina K. Designs stamp sets you already have in your collection. It’s called the Blast From the Past and each day, the Design Team will be posting projects created from stamp sets from various illustrators. Today we are featuring Theresa Momber and Rupa Shevde.

The entire GinaK Designs team would like to invite you to the virtual Release party we’ll be having this Thursday, August 5th on StampTV.  It will be a bit different than our usual release party, but we’ll still have challenges, contest questions, and designer samples that you won’t want to miss out on!  More information on that event will be shared by GinaK soon, so stay tuned to her blog for all the details this week.

The Gina K. Design Team is having a blog hop tonight featuring techniques shown on StampTV. I chose to use the “Coloring with colored pencils and OMS” technique with the Aloha stamp set by Theresa Momber.

The images were stamped onto Pure Luxury Ivory cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then colored with Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. The sentiment was stamped onto a piece of PL Ivory cardstock, layered onto a piece of PL Smokey Slate cardstock and then mounted to the cardfront with dimensionals.

Here is the video tutorial, and be sure to follow the links at the bottom of this post to see more projects from the rest of the Design Team!

Tonight’s post marks the beginning of another Gina K. Designs release! The illustrators has several beautiful stamp sets this month, and these first sets are no exception!

“Aloha” by Theresa Momber is a fun set filled with tropical images and sentiments. “In Stitches” by Tami Mayberry has twelve stitched images to coordinate with any project and add a touch of uniqueness.

I used two images from the Aloha stamp set to create the tropical sunset theme colored with Koh-i-noor pencils and OMS. The In Stitches stamp set was used to create the unique striped pattern behind the main image.

Supplies:

• Stamps: Aloha (GKD), In Stitches (GKD)
• Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento (GKD), White

This project uses the “Friends are Forever” and “Enjoy the Sunshine” stamp sets from Gina K. Designs.

I stamped the flower image onto Pure Luxury White cardstock using black ink and colored with koh-i-noor pencils and OMS to create the soft colors. I layered the PL White cardstock onto a piece of PL Smoky Slate and after stamping the sentiment onto a piece of PL White cardstock scrap, secured the piece over the main image. A single brad adds visual interest near the sentiment, and the whole image was then mounted to the PL Ocean Mist cardfront, which has 3/16″ trimmed off of the right side of the front panel with a little distressing.

Supplies:

• Stamps: Friends are Forever (GKD), Enjoy the Sunshine (GKD)
• Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento (GKD)
• Paper: PL Ocean Mist (GKD), PL Smoky Slate (GKD), PL White (GKD)
• Accessories: Koh-i-noor Pencils (GKD), OMS (GKD), Silver Brad (GKD), Distressor, Dimensioanls
