Best Wishes

Happy Wednesday!

Well, I'm happy to report that I'm feeling great this afternoon - thank you so much for all the well wishes!  They sure did the trick!  Today's card was made for the Release Party last week with GinaK's Spring Mix StampTV kit... my favorite kit of hers yet!  I paired it with a variety of patterned papers from October Afternoon's Ducks in a Row paper pack.

Day 3 Previews: Spring Mix Kit & Friends

Good evening!

Tonight we are showcasing GinaK's new Spring Mix StampTV kit!  If you haven't yet, pop over the StampTV to view Gina's video introducing the new kit.  It will be on the main page of StampTV along with her weekly project video.

My first card uses several images in the kit along with October Afternoon's patterned papers...

Stamps: Spring Mix StampTV kit

Cardstock: GinaK white; chocolate; October Afternoon Ducks in a Row

Ink: Memento black

Other: Nestabilities - plain circle & scallop circle; GinaK Ribbon; Copics, Stickles, corner rounder; button, EK Success circle punches

Isn't that little bird adorable?  The little note is the perfect size for me to sign my name!

My next project uses a couple of more images from the kit too.  I decided to make a little tag that I can use later for a card or a gift bag...

I paper pieced the goose on some patterned paper and then shaded a bit with Copics.  Then I had to pull out my little straw speckles (or saw dust as Gina likes to call it! lol) for the goose to walk on...

My last sample tonight was made with Gina's new Free with Three stamp set called Friends.  I'm a sucker for sentiment stamp sets and this one is no exception!  I LOVE having more sayings to put inside my cards and use on my scrapbook pages.

Isn't this patterned paper divine?  It's included in the Spring Mix StampTV kit!

Card Details

Ink: memento cocoa

Other: Nestabilities - Labels 12; Copper Nailheads 3mm; Fiskars border punch; EK Success flower punches; pearl brad; corner rounder

I stamped the flower pot with the seed packets from the Happy Spring stamp set on the inside very lightly so that I could write over it with a quick note.
