My Sweet Petunia and Gina K. Designs Blog Hop


Hello friends! Welcome to another fun collaboration blog hop between Gina K. Designs and My Sweet Petunia!
For today, I have a couple of projects for you, showcasing products from both companies, I have to confess this is my first time stamping since I came back from Peru! (BTW, the craft room is clean and organized now) and it felt really good!

If you arrived here from Donna Idlet, you are in the right place, if not we invite you to start the hop from Gina's blog.

So, let's get started. First I should say I received the Boho Flowers Mini Kit and it is so pretty!
  • First I stamped the images on a piece of White Layering Cardstock and my Original MISTI. As you see, I stamped all the images from the set in Memento Tuxedo Black.
  • Then, I colored the images with Spectrum Noir Markers, here I used LG1, LG3, DG1, DG2, CG2, PP1, PP2, PP3, PP4, PP5, PP6, BT1, BT4, BT5. Then I added a little bit of Clear and Rose Quartz Spectrum Noir Sparkle.

  • For the background I used the Rounded Swirl Stencil to dry emboss the Lovely Lavender cardstock. I die-cut the pieces and added them to the embossed panel. Sentiment stamped and die-cut as well! I added few little drops of Silver Liquid Pearls.

  • For my second card, I stamped the images on a piece of watercolor paper in Versamark Watermark ink, added white embossing powder and heat set the images. Then, I colored them with Spectrum Aqua Markers, here I used: Blossom, Begonia, Leaf Green, Aquamarine. After the images were dried, I die-cut them using the coordinated dies.
  •  For the front of the card, I used the stencil again, this time with Metallic Silver Embossing Paste and just in the lower corner area. Set aside to dry and then added the die-cut elements.
  • Here it is a view of the pieces added to the card.
