GINA K. DESIGNS May 2020 MONTHLY MIX CHALLENGE

Hello everyone!

I am here with Gina K. Designs with a new Monthly Mix Challenge for May! Cathy Tidwell is our hostess and the challenge is "“Lean On Me.” For this challenge, all you have to do is create a card of encouragement, you must decorate a matching envelope, and mail it to someone that might need some love. Details are HERE.

Here is my card for your inspiration. I am using the Gina K. Be the Rainbow stamp set. I masked off each of the arches to add a different color. I thought the sentiment was perfect to send someone that may need a little love today.  The envelope I decorated with Gina K. stamp set Happy Mail, I added the rainbow to the envelope with Tangerine Twist and stamped the Happy Mail in black.

Thank you for stopping by, please come back again soon.

My first card is from the NEW Digital set Cup of Joy.  My card is an A2 card, I used a background die, I colored the coffee image using Copics from the Cup of Joy digital stamp set.  I cut the sentiment from the Cup of Joy set too.  I used foam tape to add the image and sentiment to my card.

Cup of Joy

My second card is from the NEW Floral Joy digital set.  I printed the image with the sentiment onto some Kraft cardstock and colored the image with Prismacolor Pencils.  I finished the card off by adding some dew drops.

Floral Joy
