Gina K. Designs June 2020 Release – Cards from IG Hop

Today over on InstaGram, Gina K. Design is having a Hop. I wanted to share the cards I made here also. I have really enjoyed creating with all these fabulous sets from the release. Here is a look at the sets. Since the Kits sold out so fast, Gina K. has placed another order and will have a second batch of kits before much longer.

Here is a look at two cards I made using Nature’s Touch Card Kit.

Watercolored this one and used the Hello word die, oval dies and some beautiful patterned paper.

Next up is the Free to Flourish stamp set. I love the elements in this set.

This was was fun! I used the techniques Gina K. Showed in one of her lives. I ran the stencil through my die cutting machine to emboss it then I scored lines and did the woodgrain technique on it. It has a carved wood look. I really like the look this technique offers.

And here are the items used for this card.

I hope you have enjoyed the cards from the InstaGram Hop and I hope you have a wonderful day and take a little time to get inky! ❤

Much Love, Karen

Here are the cards I made using the New Nature’s Touch Card Kit and Masters Layout Dies.

This card I masked off so I would have a center focal area. I ink blended the background, stamped the image and then decided that I wanted to do the Bokeh (is a photography term for Blurred Lights)Technique on this card! I used a small sponge dauber to create the light orbs.

Here are the Items I used for this card!

I just had to do some watercoloring and make a VIdeo using these flowers! ❤ There are dies for them, but I had already stamped and colored before I realized I might want to cut the flowers out. So I had to fussy cut the flower out. I prefer dies! 🙂 So many of you are Great at Fussy Cutting and make it look so easy and get it perfect. It isn’t for me! LOL. But I will keep trying! I did make a panel with leaves and watercolored then used the Master Dies to cut out the rectangle panel.
