Gina K Preview Day 1

Hello! Welcome to the first night of Gina K Previews! Tonight the design team is previewing three new sets--A Beautiful Life, Sending Sunshine, and Fairy Tales.

Here is the card I created with Fairy Tales:
I love this fun set and my mind was just swirling with ideas for it but eventually I settled on this one. I wanted to use that fun sentiment and frog...and thought the flowers would make a great background.

Did you see the frog's mouth?? I cut a little pucker from cardstock and then added some red stickles to make it shine. HAD to! The flowers are paper pieced. Finally, I added some brads and some fun ribbon (that are both in the new stamp tv kit!).

Materials used: Stamps-Fairy Tales (Gina K Designs); cardstock-white, lemon drop, sweet corn, creme de menthe (Gina K Designs); button (Gina K Designs); ribbon (Gina K Designs); brads (Gina K Designs); ribbon (Gina K Designs); Designer paper-Chicken Noodle:Dried Egg Noodles (Jillibean Soup); Memento tuxedo black ink; SU markers-black, red; sewing machine; stickles-red (Ranger); Copic Markers.

Next up is a card I created with A Beautiful Life:



Do you get it? I substituted the bee image for the beginning of the word beautiful. Hee...couldn't resist that little bee (I KNOW you will see tons of the gorgeous flower frame in a lot of people's post so I wanted to focus on my favorite image in the set--the bee!)


Materials used: Stamps-A Beautiful Life (Gina K Designs); Memento tuxedo black ink; jute twine (Gina K Designs); cardstock-white, kraft, creme de menthe (Gina K Designs); Copic marker; Designer paper-White Bean: Chicken Broth (Jillibean Soup); corner rounder punch (Creative Memories).
