Gina K Designs Inspiration Day 3!


Today our Gina K Designs team is sharing cards made with Gnome One Like You, and the one free with 3, Various Verses!

Gnome One Like You is a blast!  These images are so fun to color, and the sentiments crack me up!  I love how this guy looks in these earthy colors!

Notes:
Pure Luxury card stock in pumpkin spice, chocolate brown, and tan leather
Gnome One Like You
Memento ink
Ranger tea-dye distress ink
Copic markers, multi-liner
button
jute thread



This card is the opposite, totally CAS, bright and clean!  I used markers directly to the stamp, cut the image with nestabilities ovals and left the layout super simple.  I love that bright pop of color with lots of wide-open white-space!

Notes:
Pure Luxury card stock in ivory, black
Various Verses
Markers
Flower Soft
Nestabilities small and large ovals
Bow Easy
double-stitched grosgrain

Here are the designers for today:

    Such great cards! Your ink daubing on both of them make them a cut above. Especially on the gnome card. That image really pops off the page because of your daubing. I need to practice. My daubing still looks like a kindergartner did it. Thanks for the inspiration!
