Sneek Peek Day 3: "The Journey" and "Many Wishes"

Our last two Gina K Designs stamp set peeks before the reveal tonight and I've gotten some clean and simple cards for you! The first is Asela's "The Journey". Lots of very poignant vignettes and sentiments included, here's an image I like a lot, because of the sweetness of the pair, but also the ambiguity their walking away from us creates: you may see two children, or if you're "petite" like me (and have a 6 year old son that's already up to your shoulder!), you might see a mother and son. We just returned from the beach a few weeks ago, and we just love walking up and down the beach together finding shells, so I knew as soon as I saw this image (and the new Gina K Pure Luxury "Soft Sand" cardstock!) what I wanted to make.
I glued a few shells to the corner of my embossed Nesabilities rectangle frame for an accent, and broke off a tiny piece of one to put in her hand. After making a diagonal tear in some scratch paper, I placed it across the top corner and sponged in three layers of foamy surf with my Cream White Pad. The figures are colored with Copics and popped up, I followed along the underside of the image with my Versamarker to make the shadows and added two little rows of simple footprints. Last a piece of hemp, I can almost never do a beach card with it. (I have smokin' hot card for the party with this set, completely different, hope you can make it!) :)


Next up is Gina's "Many Wishes", full of dandelions and dreams.

Here is a simple single layer card created by stamping and stamping off the different dandelion heads in Staz On on Glossy CS, then matching up the stems to each, tilting them this way and that make a soft breeze. I added a little more greenery from Gina's "Tropical Flowers" to flesh out the field a bit more. I sponged on a bit of pink and purple allowing some white to peek through, I love doing nature silhouettes like this with sky in the background, like you're lying on your back in the grass with flowers towering over you as the sun sets. She also included lots of different wish greetings to accompany those little spores floating away in the breeze... ahhhhhh!
