GINA K. DESIGNS NOVEMBER 2021 RELEASE

Hello everyone!

I am here sharing some cards from the Gina K. Designs NEWLY release products from the November 2021 release.  This is another fabulous release!  I am using the "Reason for the Season" stamp set illustrated by Emily Loggans.   I am also using the "Playful Penguins" which was in the kit last month.  You can see more inspiration from the full release on the Gina K. Designs & StampTV Friends Facebook page. To see the full release, you can go HERE under the What's New section.

Here are my cards for your inspiration:

These cards can be replicated in so many ways, I stamped and heat embossed each one with different embossing powder and card stock.

This is a square card measuring 4 1/4 x 4 1/4, I used Master Layouts 3 to cut the top layers.  The paper is GKD Red Velvet, heat embossed with GKD silver embossing powder.  I inked the edges to give the card definition and het embossed the first layer to match the embossed sentiment.

This is a square card measuring 4 1/4 x 4 1/4, I used Master Layouts 3 to cut the top layers.  The paper is GKD Fresh Asparagus, heat embossed with GKD gold embossing powder.  I inked the edges to give the card definition and het embossed the first layer to match the embossed sentiment.

This is a square card measuring 4 1/4 x 4 1/4, I used Master Layouts 3 to cut the top layers.  The paper is GKD Wild Lilac, heat embossed with GKD white embossing powder.

Here is my last card:

I die cut the layers with GKD Master Layouts 1.  I stamped and heat embossed the background with GKD Background stamp Delicate. I then stamped the images from the GKD Playful Penguins stamp set, colored them with copics and die cut them with the Playful Penguins die set.  I cut the snowbank with Master Layouts 6, stamped the sentiment from GKD  "Reason for the Season" stamp set.  I assembled the card, and I love how it turned out.

Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope I have inspired you!
