Are we ther yet?


Welcome to day two of Gina K Designs July release. I am so excited to be a CenterStage Guest Designer this month! Be sure to join us for the release party on SplitCoast Stampers on Thursday at 7 p.m. CST. There will be tons of eye candy, contests, challenges, chatter. It is a whole lot of fun, I hope you can join us. If you are new to Gina K Designs release parties Theresa wrote a tutorial on it back in June that you may find helpful.

The set I am showing you is Rupa Shevde's newest set called Are we there yet? What a fun set for me to show you, my family and I love to head out in our RV and spending time camping.
So for my first card I used the motor home and created this scene. I started by stamping the motor home and then created a mask so I could sponge in the ground and sky. For the sky I used Jessica technique using a scallop circle and a type of mask. You can see her tutorial here. I also used Tree Silhouettes from Gina K Designs. So did you notice that wonderful green paper? It is new with this release and it is fabulous. It is called Green Apple and it goes very well with Gina's other papers, here I paired it up with In the Navy and Soft Sand. To color in the motor home I used Memento markers which you Gina also sells. And the screw head brads, yes you guessed it Gina sells those to.



Now for card number two. For this card I used the bicycle, and still using the new Green Apple Pure Luxury card stock. This time I paired it with Chocolate Kiss and Soft Sand. Now check out that
FAB designer paper, it is from Basic Greys new June Bug and Gina will be selling this fantastic paper starting Thursday night. Gina will also be adding Basic Greys new Lemonade paper to her store on Thursday.

  16. WOW Brenda these are just smashing! Your mojo is on fire! Just love your ideas. The RV is a fave - I miss my trailer :-( and camping in general. Don't do so much of it here in the midwest as I used to do in Calif. You were a wise choice by Gina for Center Stage! Super!
