GIna K Sending Love

Gina K has some of the beat flower stamps!  Here is a card I made with one of them:

To make this card, I used the following:

  • Gina K - Sending Love Stamp set
  • Prismacolor Pencils
  • Tim Holtz Celebrate Dies
  • Versfine Black Onyx Ink

To make this card, I stamped the corner image at both the top left and bottom right of a 4 x 5.25 piece of white card stock.  The image was then colored with Prismacolor pencils.  From closely matching color card stock, I cut the happy birthday sentiment using the Celebrate dies.  These were then added to the center area of the image.  The image was then added to a card base to complete the card,

An Art Impressions Valentine

I made this card for my husband for Valentines day.  I got the idea from @triciadollkennedy on Instagram. 


I used the following for the card:
Art Impressions Stamps - WC Birds, Flower Set, EZ Project C
Marvy Le Plume II - Sepia, Steel Blue, Olive Green, Persimmon

To  make the card, with a pencil I lightly traced a heart die on a piece of water color paper.  I then colored the stamps, and stamped them around the heart, leaving room for the birds.  Between the flowers, the leaf stamps were colored and stamped between the flowers.  Water was then added to the stamped images for that wonderful water color look.  The birds were then added in a similar manner.  The sentiment (from an unknown manufacturer) was stamped.  The panel was added to a red mat, and then added to the card base to complete the card.

A Bucket of Tulips

Tulips are another flower that I really like, but can't seem to grow.  Many years ago, I found this stamp at a yard sale, and it was of tulips.  I had to get it, but didn't really use it.  Going through my stamps recently, I once again found it and here is the card I made with it:

To make the card, I used:

  • "Bucket of Tulips" - I have no idea of the manufacturer or real name 
  • Copic Markers
  • Hero Arts - Infinity Dies - Oval
  • Memento Black Ink
To make the card, I stamped the image with Memento ink.  The image was then colored with Copic Markers.  Dark pink card stock was cut to 4 x 5.25.  From the center of the card stock I cut an oval with one of the Hero Arts oval dies.  The colored image was mounted behind the pink card stock, and the entire piece added to a white card base.  The sentiment was then added to complete the card.
