Gina K Final Preview - Take Flight

This is the last day of previews for the new Gina K Designs release! All of the sets (and the great new storage system) will be released tonight-THURSDAY! Woohooo!

Today I am previewing the new FREE WITH THREE set called Take Flight! Wowza--I love this set and cannot believe you can get it free (with the purchase of three other sets)--what a sweet deal! The large butterfly on this card is one of two butterflies in the set:

I had purchased the jolee's boutique butterfly stickers awhile ago but have never known what to do with them. Well, I do now--I stamped the large Gina K butterfly in brilliance ink and sprinkled black embossing powder on it and heat set. Then I watercolored with SU! reinkers to match the shades of blue on the card. I added lots of piercing detail, the sentiment and stickers and was done.

I have been waiting for awhile to get some new butterfly images that I just love--I know I will be using these LOTS!

Materials used: Stamps-Take Flight (Gina K Designs); cardstock- Gina K Pure Luxury 80lb, 120 lb; blue bayau, gold (SU!); Designer paper- Out & About (My Mind's Eye); SU reinkers (blue bayau, soft sky); paint brush; paper piercing tool and mat pack; Spellbinders pierceabilities template; Cuttlebug (Provocraft); Circle and scallop circle nestabilities (Spellbinders); stickers-Jolee's Boutique; glue dots (SU!); gold brads (SU!); lace-thrift shop; oval punches (SU!); Dimensionals (SU!).
