Hello everyone!

I am here with Retro Rubber Challenge blog and we have a new challenge which all about circles....use circle stamps, circle shapes and or paper on your card. Be sure to stop over on the Retro Rubber Challenge blog to get more inspiration, the design team has some wonderful creations!

The rules to play along with Retro Rubber Challenge is very simple, make sure the stamp you use on your project is at least one year or older. For more details on the rules, you can find them over on Retro Rubber Challenge blog.

This is such a fun challenge, the background stamp I used is one of my favorite stamp sets.  The stamp set is by Hero Arts called "Circle Pattern Bold Prints" which was released in January 2020.  The "rainbow" die set and sentiment is from Waffle Flowers called Oversize Rainbow Stamp Set, which was released June 2021.  

Here is how I put the card together:

• Created an A2 card measures 4 1/4 x 5 1/2.
• Stamp the background "Circle Pattern Bold Prints" with black ink and then embossed with clear embossing powder.  
• Ink blend rainbow colors within the circles using Gina K. Designs 
•  Die cut the Layers Using Gina K. Designs Master Layouts 1.
• Stamped the sentiment with versamark and added white embossing powder and heat embossed.
• Die cut the sentiment with a sentiment strip.
• Assembled the card.

Gina K. Designs - Happy Father's Day Papa!

Hello everyone!

I'm sharing a card I created for my grandchildren to give to their papa.  The stamp set I am using is from Gina K. Designs  called "Grand Gentlemen" and I used the coordinating dies.  This set was illustrated by Beth Silaika 

You can see more inspiration from the full release on the Gina K. Designs & StampTV Friends Facebook page. 

Here are my cards for your inspiration:

My first card I used the "Grand Gentlemen Stamp Set" and dies illustrated by Beth Silaika. This set is a great set for all the special men in your life!  There are lots of sentiments and coordinating sayings for any occasion too.  I just couldn't help myself, I had to make a rainbow card out of the ties!

Here is how I created the card:

• Card is a slimline card, measuring  6"x 3 1/4" (6"x 6 1/2", scored at 3 1/4" on the 6 1/2" side).
• Used the Master Layout 7 to cut the layers.  
• Stamped the brick background from the  "Grand Gentlemen" stamp set.
• Stamped and die cut the bows and colored with alcohol markers.  Added them to the card with foam squares.
• Added the sentiment from Grand Gentlemen stamp set, die cut the sentiment from Master Layout 9.
• Assembled the card.
