CSS Treasure Chest Blog Hop

Welcome to another CSS Blog Hop!  If you came from Joy's blog you are in the right place, and if not be sure to start at the beginning HERE.  This month we are having a Treasure Chest Blog Hop....and the "treasure" is the Stamp TV Kit!  Stamp TV Kits are such a great value of stamps, cardstock and accessories, they are some of my "go-to" stamp sets.  For my card I used the Sent with Love Stamp TV Kit and paired it with some Echo Park Be Mine patterned paper.  I will say this pattern paper is on a larger scale (from their 12 x 12 packs), but thrilled to share that Gina K. Designs is now carrying the 6 x 6 pads in the store, including this one!  I stamped the image, die-cut it with Labels 14, and lightly sponged it with pink ink.

Make sure to leave a comment on each of the blogs...Gina will randomly choose a winner who will get to choose ANY past StampTV stamp set of their own! Winner will be announced Tuesday morning!

 Next stop on the hop is...Giovana!  Can't wait to see what design she has to share for the hop.

Blessings,

Sent with Love

I made this for the Play Date Cafe challenge this week which was to use Black, Green and Red.   For my design I used some Webster's Pages patterned paper as well as two stamp sets from Layers of Color Flowering Gems and The Love Chapter.  I also used a sentiment from the GKD Stamp TV kit Sent with Love.  Quite a conglomerate I know :o) I am also entering this into the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge which is to use green in your card/project.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Layers of Color Warbler and a WINNER!

I have another Layers of Color card to share today and this one uses Warbler and Sent with Love.  This bird is beautiful colored or stamped alone.  I also stamped the musical score from Nina's Vintage Borders stamp set on some Webster's Pages patterned paper and added some lace and purple ribbon.  I am entering this card into the Color Inspiration for Card Makers Week: The Pretty Pastels Challenge.  I am hoping to create a few more cards for the Moxie Fab challenges, just need more time, any idea where I can get some??? lol!

I know you are wanting to know the winner of The Love Chapter art stamp set and it is.....

Layers of Color New Release!!!

Welcome to the Layers of Color Blog Hop!!

This is a SUPER exciting new release because…
Nina Brackett has designed new clear stamp sets for Layers of Color!
 There are many chances to WIN new release art stamps from ALL the blogs on the hop today and if you hop to all of the blogs, you will also be entered into the Grand Prize drawing where you could… 
Win the ENTIRE release!!
 

 Now, if you came from Janice's blog you are in the perfect place and if you didn't...well you can go HERE to start at the very beginning.  I have two cards to share tonight and they both use images from the stamp set The Love Chapter:

 

 The script background and LOVE are both from The Love Chapter.  The script background is I Corinthians 13:4-7 and I am particularly fond of it because you can actually READ the writing, a big plus as I am not up on my French with other backgrounds I have seen, lol!  For this card, I also used Happy Wishes (for the Happy Anniversary sentiment) and Belle Brocade art stencil.  The letters for L-O-V-E are so very pretty and you can ink them up separately and stamp across....as you can see here:


For this I used the collage word stamp from the set and stamped it in two different inks to create a background.

Today I am giving away The Love Chapter clear art stamp set and all you have to do is just leave a comment by midnight tonight. I will announce a random winner at 8:00 am Tuesday.

Gina K. Designs Sneak Peek Day 3

Welcome to the third day of the previews for Gina K Designs January Release!  Today the GKD Design Team is previewing the Sent with Love Stamp TV Kit...

 There are so many cute stamps and sentiments in this set that you will find more uses than just "love" for your sweetheart (even though this kit is awful sweet for that!!!)  I used Ocean Mist, Bubblegum Pink and Ivory cardstock and paired it with some My Mind's Eye patterned paper.  The circles were die-cut the Spellbinders Circle Nestabilities and I added some dimension by popping the images up on dimensionals (even the little envelope is paper pieced to keep its' nice crisp whiteness).  Let me tell you...that little bird and birdhouse is so stinkin' cute!! Definitely a favorite of mine ...
