CSS Alumni Blog Hop

Gina K. Designs ~ StampTV
Center Stage Spotlight Alumni Blog Hop

I'm so excited to be part of the CSS Alumni blog hop! I'm using the set illustrated by Theresa Momber that I can't seem to put away. It just stays on my craft table. LOL! For this hop, the alumni CSS team was given a color challenge: kraft or tan leather, and gkd green, & white.

If you arrived here from Giovanna's blog, you're in the right place! If not, you'll want to go back to StampTV so you won't miss a thing! :)

My new craft room is not put together yet and I had to search the basement for old crayons so I could have white petals on the kraft cardstock. Phew! I found one. This is a Rose Art crayon, not my favorite. Nothing can beat the quality of Crayola and the smell is just awesome. Am I the only one who thinks that? LOL!

Recipe
GKD stamp set: Hope Grows
(Illustrator - Theresa Momber)
GKD cardstock: kraft & grass green
Accessories: ribbon from a GKD kit, GKD buttons,
hemp, pop-up dots, and a white crayon
Ink: SU garden green & close to cocoa

And just a few hours ago, I received my newest GKD order with the new release, Seeds of Kindness, by Gina. I am in love with this set already! This card was so easy and super fast... could hardly believe it! First I colored the image using Copic markers: YG67 moss, G24, willow, & E43 dull ivory. With the exception of the base card and main image, everything else was made with scraps on my craft table. See.... sometimes leaving a mess is a good thing. LOL! (~insert cheesy, guilty grin here~)
