Pin it to Win it Blog Hop!

 

Welcome to the Gina K. Designs "Pin it to Win it" Blog Hop!  Today, the Illustration Team has put together a special hop featuring many of our beautiful new stamp sets enhanced by the Gina K. Designs patterned paper! As you visit each blog, "Pin" the project to one of your Pinterest Boards and use the words, "Gina K. Designs" in your description. We will search Pinterest for your pins and choose 3 winners who will each win a fun grab bag of stamps, patterned paper and embellishments.

Don't have a Pinterest account? That's okay! Leave a comment on each blog and we will choose 3 winners from all the comments, too! Wanna' do both? You'll double your chances of winning some fun Gina K. Designs stamping goodies! 

To make this card, you need the new Spring Parade StampTV Kit,  A Year of Flowers 2 stamp set, a black ink pad, and Copics B02, B12, YG23, and Y38. That's it!  The kit has all the brads, patterned paper and colored cardstock you need.  I used a card layout from my book A Year of Flowers, replacing the stamped flowers form the original set with images and a greeting from my new A Year of Flowers 2, and replacing the featured technique faux linen papers I created for the card in the book with some this new kit's patterned papers. Easy peasy.  The stripes and floral pattern are so fun with these!  Color scheme on the book's card was similar (which is what reminded me to this design as I looked through the kits contents)  but I swapped out the Pure Luxury Ocean Mist and Red Hot for the StampTV Kit's Turquoise Sea and Tomato Soup.  I didn't bother to mask the images for this one, as the sketchy images look just fine (to me anyway) overlapping. :)

I love how this turned out, and am so glad I had a design from the book to help me since we had company in town this weekend and my mojo has been thrown off the last couple weeks.I also turned it on its side and turned the sentiment tag to share how nicely this layout also works landscape style.

AND, from now through Tuesday night, Gina K. Designs is running a special sale- 50% off all stamp set duos, including 6 new ones AND 25% off ALL Gina K. Designs 6 X 6 Patterned Paper packs.  Don't miss out on this great sale!
