Love (simply stated)

This card is based on one that I recently saw on either Facebook or Instagram, I can't remember which and of course I didn't save the information!  Its a very simply stated card!


I used the following for the card:

  • Gina K Designs - Master Layouts 1
  • Gina K Designs - Love and Shadow dies
  • Gina K Designs - Petite Flourish Embossing Folder
To make the card, I cut a piece of white card stock with Master Layouts 1.  The mat was cut using a red foil paper.  The white panel was then embossed with the Petite Flourish Embossing Folder and added to the red foil mat and then to a white card base.  "Love" was cut from white card stock, while the shadow was cut from red foil.  These were attached to each other and then added to the card base to complete the card.

Love is all you need

This anniversary card reminds me of sunsets in the Caribbean!


I used the following to make the card:

  • Gina K Designs - Master Layouts 2
  • Gina K Designs - Ocean Silhouettes Stamp sets
  • Gina K Designs - Love is All You Need Stamp set
  • Gina K Designs - Black Onyx, Dusty Rose, Sweet Mango, Wild Dandelion, Blue Denim Inks
To make the card, I added the sunset colors to a white card base by using blending brushes.  The images were then stamped in black, and the sentiment added.  The image was cut with Master Layouts 2, along with a black mat.  These were then added to a peach card base to complete the card.

My 15 cards from Kendra's Card Challenge #11

When I saw the information for Kendra's Card Challenge, I thought that it would be a great way to make several cards.  I decided to use some patterned paper I had purchased several years ago from Gina K Designs.  At the time you could get both the patterned paper and coordinating cardstock which made using this paper even better for me, because you see, I purchased everything but had never used it! 

Here are the cards I made:
