HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!!
Today we're CELEBRATING the NEW Therm O Web & Gina K Designs Autumn Stamp-n-foil Release with a FUN Blog Hop!!
Who's ready for some AMAZING Inspiration and chances to WIN!!??
I've created a couple Cards for today and I CAN'T WAIT to share them with you!!
Fist up is a Card using the Products from the BEAUTIFUL Graphic Sunflower Collection!! SWOON!! Sunflowers are a FAVORITE of mine and these Images are going to be PERFECT for so many occasions!!
I started by Stamping the Solid Sunflower Images using Gina K Designs Inks in Sweet Corn and Wild Dandelion and Distress Ink in Rusty Hinge to add some dimension using an Ink Dauber to apply Ink to the Stamp for a specific placement of my ink!!
For the Centers of the Sunflowers I used some Gathered Twigs Distress Ink and then Stamped the Leaf Images directly onto the open areas of the paper using Gina K Designs Fresh Asparagus and Jelly Bean Green Inks!! Again applying the Ink with an Ink dauber for the Second stamping to apply the darker Color for a more dimensional looking Image!!I wanted to add some dimension and some Foiling to the Leaves too, so I used the Deco Foil Adhesive Pen Medium using a Paint Brush to apply tiny Dot details!! Simple push down on the tip of the Pen over your work surface and create a puddle of the Medium!! Then use your Paint Brush to apply it to the Project!! I LOVE being able to find other ways to use my Products and this is a SUPER FUN way to use this Medium in a more controlled way!!
Then I Foiled the Centers of the Flowers using some Rose Gold Deco Foil and some Gina K Designs Spring Green Fancy Foil to the Leaves!! Its SUPER FUN to be able to use a Similar Foil color to the coordinate with the Color of Ink you used!! Think of ALL of the possibilities with the RAINBOW of Foils available from Gina K Designs and Deco Foil!! SQUEAL!! That makes me a HAPPY Stamper/Foiler!!
I Die Cut everything using the coordinating Dies and Created my Cards!! I used the NEW Harvest Texture Foil Mates for the Base of my Card Foiling it with some of the Gina K Designs Turquoise Sea Fancy Foil!!
For my Next Card I Stamped the Images again using a combination of Gina K Designs Inks!! Using an Ink Dauber again to apply a controlled placement of darker Inks to add layers for a Dimensional looking Image!! I broke them out into each Leaf Image so you can see what Inks I've used for each one!! I took a Photo of both side of the Ink Cubes too so you can see the Ink names as well as the Colors!! Sometimes Visuals help me!!
I foiled the Leaves using some Amber Watercolor Deco Foil and then used the Coordinating Dies to Die Cut them all out!! I arranged them into a Cluster using the Sentiment as my Grounding place to tie them all together!! I stamped and Embossed the Sentiment and used the Gina K Designs Nested Labels to Die Cut it out!! Adding some Sweet Corn Ink to the Center of the Sentiment to make it POP!! Then backed it with an Amber Foiled Label I created using some Deco Foil Toner Sheets!! A few Pretty Pink Posh Gold Jewels finishes off the Design!!
I hope I've INSPIRED you!!?? Now its time to go and see what the rest of the AMAZING Design Team has created to inspire you with!! Don't forget to Leave comments along the way for a chance to WIN!! You could WIN either the "Graphic Sunflowers Set" OR the "Thankful Leaves Set"!!
