Gina K. Designs 2018 September Release Blog Hop - Day 1

Monday, October 1, 2018

Hello everyone!

Welcome to Day 1 of the Gina K. Designs September blog hop! The release is now available over at Gina K. Designs and can be found HERE under the "what's new" tab. Today the design team is featuring two new sets the first one is called Men of Faith by Melanie Muenchinger and  Mandala Maker by Rina Krupsky



My card is clean and simple, I stamped the image a couple of times with the Gina K. 
Amalgam Ink.  I then stamped it with Versamark and heat set it with clear embossing powder.  I stamped the words from the Men of Faith by Melanie Muenchinger.



The Mandala Maker by Rina Krupsky is so versatile.  I used the circle images and stamped them on my card and then colored them with copics.  Love all the shapes in this set....the possibilities are endless.
