Welcome to Day 1 of the December Gina K Designs Inspiration Hops. As you hop through the blogs, make sure to leave a comment on each of them because we will choose a few random comments and those stampers will each win a grab bag of Gina K. Designs products! To see the full list of winners check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hops.
Today we are sharing projects using Vertical Greetings and It's the Little Things!
My first card showcases the gorgeous poppies from Vertical Greetings paired with a sentiment from the set. I stamped the poppies, colored them with Copic markers and then cut them out. I added them to the panel I die cut from patterned paper. For the base of this card, I stamped the large flourishes from Elegant Flourishes set in Grass Green ink so that I could pop the poppy panel over them. I stamped the little dragonfly from Vertical Greetings on one flourish using Sweet Corn Ink.
Next, I have a card I shared on the Illustrator hop the other day. I paired a Vertical Greeting with a smaller flourish from Elegant Flourishes to create this greeting:
For my next card, I used the adorable elephant from It's the Little Things. So cute! I stamped the balloon and paper pieced it and then added some white accents. I stamped the sentiment in black and Red Hot ink. I added a little black rhinestone to his eye to make it more dimensional.
Next, I sat the little fox from It's the Little Things on the large flourish from Elegant Flourishes. I used a sentiment from Vertical Greetings to finish this card:
