I am a Guest Designer!

Sorry I have been missing, but I just had to spend some time working on goodies for the release party over at Gina K. Designs. Melanie Muenchinger, one of the amazing designers over there, has asked me to guest design for her new set this month. It is called Wild At Heart. What a absolute honor! So, now you know my secret!

You will be seeing this set used every which way, and I hope you like what you see! My first card was done using 3 Distress Ink colors. They are Peeled Paint, Mustard Seed, and Walnut. The card stock is Gina K. Designs, Pure Luxury Lemon Drop and Green Apple. I added some tiny metal and mesh butterflies as accent.

Card #2 was an experiment, but I was liking how it came out! I used Kraft Pure Luxury card stock, and went with a one layer look. I stamped my main image directly on the card front with Walnut Distress Ink, and then colored the open areas of the image with colored pencils. My third card, I stamped the image with Colorbox Blue Iris, Chalk Ink. I then cut out pieces and half popped the wildflowers for dimension. I ran a strip of Navy Pure Luxury through my Cuttlebug, using the Big Dots EF. My blue ticking paper is an unknown. I added accents of red to make the card pop. A red gingham bow, red mini brads, and some red Copic to the centers with a coat of Crystal Effects, did the trick.

You can see the complete set over on my side bar, and if you might be interested, here is a link to it at Gina K. Designs. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you enjoyed your visit.
