Fun Fold with Flowers

Hello!  This card was made for the Monthly Mix Challenge at Gina K Designs. We are to make a fun fold card and to create a pattern paper with Gina K Stamps to use on our card.  I used stamps and a die from GKD Whimsical Wildflowers set. The image on the front fold was created using the Faux Cloisonne technique that I recently learned about from the CAS Mix Up Challenge here.  I used the glossy magazine page shown below to create the focal image. I use the same die to cut the image and also to partially cut the edge of the front flap of the white card base.  I attached the cut out image to that edge. My patterned paper that I created is shown on the left and right folds. Added some GKD Ribbon and a sentiment from GKD Wild About You Set. Used GKD Fresh Asparagus Ink and Distress Ink Fossilized Amber.  I will be including a message on the inside of the card when I use it.

Colors of the Forest

 

Hello!  I have another Christmas card that I made for the GKD release challenge at Stamp TV.  Gina asked that we use a wood grained background for a Christmas card.  I used White CS with Toffee Crunch and Rich Cocoa inks to create the wood grained panel.  I stamped the Tree and Sentiment from Gina K Designs Joyful Holiday with Versamark and embossed with Gold EP and then sponged the tree with SU Always Artichoke ink.   I assembled all on a Sage Green Card Base and added a snippet of GKD Organdy with gold ribbon.   I was thinking of the greens and browns of the forest when I created this card.
