This is a technique Gina shared recently in a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3qNmzSlF4s" target="_blank">5 minute card video</a> and I love how it looked so I gave my try at it and am so happy how it turned out. I didn't use a negative die cut for this one and only masked off the areas in white then I embossed the star fall image in white and then ink blended in the center. These dang penguins are so fun. </div><div><br /></div><div>Thank you for stopping by,</div><div>Brenda</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Supplies</b></div><div><b><br /></b></div><div><u>Stamps</u></div><div>Playful Penguins</div><div>Star Struck</div><div>(sentiment from unnamed incentive set)</div><div><br /></div><div><u>Inks</u></div><div>Lucky Clover</div><div>Turquoise Sea</div><div>Wild Lilac</div><div><br /></div><div><u>Copics</u></div><div>B00, B000, B0000, B01, B05</div><div>BV 01, BV 02</div><div>G12, G14</div><div>N1, N3, N5, N7</div><div>Y35, Y38</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a data-pin-config="none" data-pin-do="buttonPin" href="//pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2Fkentbrew%2F6851755809%2F&media=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm8.staticflickr.com%2F7027%2F6851755809_df5b2051c9_z.jpg&description=Next%20stop%3A%20Pinterest"><img src="//assets.pinterest.com/images/pidgets/pin_it_button.png" /></a>Brendahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16593081958301526686noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519884813562598847.post-34464547811455414432021-10-07T15:32:00.001-07:002021-10-07T15:32:04.867-07:00Fall Thank you<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh77ZCovCnYKxC7O2-7XlA3Hn5Khrs-Ly08wtwkypJp26tuoidYRk3oaxPiByMDklIco31_ECdzKun7ujoeToGK5fZYGltsRyGwyGcnkU0OjnEAY4n0ADZFKMCo4YZKV5oidFQdHOekH0E/s2048/GKD+October+2021+Challenge+Brenda+Turner.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1505" data-original-width="2048" height="294" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh77ZCovCnYKxC7O2-7XlA3Hn5Khrs-Ly08wtwkypJp26tuoidYRk3oaxPiByMDklIco31_ECdzKun7ujoeToGK5fZYGltsRyGwyGcnkU0OjnEAY4n0ADZFKMCo4YZKV5oidFQdHOekH0E/w400-h294/GKD+October+2021+Challenge+Brenda+Turner.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div><br /></div><div>Hello,</div><div><br /></div><div>Today I have a card I made for the monthly challenge for Gina K Designs.

I used Best Witches stamp and die set. Wild lilac and slate inks. The hat is colored using copic markers. The sentiment and layers were cut out using master layouts #7.

This one is for the <a href="https://ginakdesigns.com/2021/08/01/august-2021-monthly-mix-challenge/?v=7516fd43adaa" target="_blank">August Monthly Challenge</a> at Gina K Designs. The challenge is to use multiple sentiment strips. One of my first idea for a card using Woodland Friends was to make a nighttime card. I started by cutting out a piece of GKD white layering weight card stock using master layouts #7. To make the sky I used blending brushes leaving the center the lightest with the following colors in this order: powder blue, blue raspberry, blue denim, in the navy. Then I stamped some white pigment ink on my glass mat and spritzed some water on it. Next using a small paint brush I sprinkled the stars in the sky. For the moon I cut out a the smallest circle from master layouts #7. To create the craters on the moon I heated up a piece of Simon Hurleys stamping foam and pressed it against the texture on my wall. After inking up the foam with moonlit fog I stamped off 3 times on some scrap paper before stamping on the moon with a light hand. The scene is created using master layouts #6 and the owl was colored using prisma pencils and gamsol. Then sentiment flags are cut using master layouts #4. All products used are Gina K Designs except the stamping foam and prisma pencils/gamsol.</div><div><br /></div><div>Thank you for stopping by,</div><div>Brenda</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a data-pin-config="none" data-pin-do="buttonPin" href="//pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2Fkentbrew%2F6851755809%2F&media=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm8.staticflickr.com%2F7027%2F6851755809_df5b2051c9_z.jpg&description=Next%20stop%3A%20Pinterest"><img src="//assets.pinterest.com/images/pidgets/pin_it_button.png" /></a>Brendahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16593081958301526686noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519884813562598847.post-21381816603739934472021-07-31T13:54:00.000-07:002021-07-31T13:54:19.522-07:00You Deserve The Best<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB6RJdokxTaQqTUiaOx_6ResuQXQGeNV7amlOdgK59gt1HYcy0FIY9V_2TDv_-m27cNhorxNA7iFlHyyZWjI2Zho_cAEb9Ysw1AM8B9EQwbiQWqQdjap2UX1TmuIEl3LwNq4fUj_xkqSg/s2048/GKD+Madala+2+7%253A+2021+Brenda.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1751" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB6RJdokxTaQqTUiaOx_6ResuQXQGeNV7amlOdgK59gt1HYcy0FIY9V_2TDv_-m27cNhorxNA7iFlHyyZWjI2Zho_cAEb9Ysw1AM8B9EQwbiQWqQdjap2UX1TmuIEl3LwNq4fUj_xkqSg/w343-h400/GKD+Madala+2+7%253A+2021+Brenda.jpg" width="343" /></a></div><br /><div><br /></div><div>Hello again,</div><div><br /></div><div>Another card I made.

This month the challenge is Christmas in July. Well you can never start to early on the getting Christmas cards made. For my card I used Sparkle and Shine. I decided to give a non traditional color scheme a try, and I have to say I really pleased with how it came out. I embossed the tree in white and then with blending brushes I added turquoise sea to highlight the tree. The sentiment is popped up with foam tape and I added some Angel Aura rhinestones. The panels and sentiment were cut out using master layouts #2 and #4. All of the products used are from Gina K Designs.</div><div><br /></div><div>Thank you for stopping by,</div><div>Brenda</div><div><br /></div><a data-pin-config="none" data-pin-do="buttonPin" href="//pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2Fkentbrew%2F6851755809%2F&media=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm8.staticflickr.com%2F7027%2F6851755809_df5b2051c9_z.jpg&description=Next%20stop%3A%20Pinterest"><img height="20" src="//assets.pinterest.com/images/pidgets/pin_it_button.png" width="40" /></a>Brendahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16593081958301526686noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519884813562598847.post-65194100036478654482021-06-15T15:01:00.000-07:002021-06-15T15:01:12.126-07:00Birthday Wishes<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBxHLgEMHtAqTXS7Vryxn6-8WJeiiv7ddDN0M3BY_SBhc8c7MwmzXgslDkscHBZzBYAJGQ7_N_j7Ibf0Rpb8FWEIOgM5_va6l0xrZ2xep8AKtBHjQIIgdbH9sr2tGPgox_X573uyCXQOE/s2048/gkd+birthday+wishes+brenda+turner.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1570" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBxHLgEMHtAqTXS7Vryxn6-8WJeiiv7ddDN0M3BY_SBhc8c7MwmzXgslDkscHBZzBYAJGQ7_N_j7Ibf0Rpb8FWEIOgM5_va6l0xrZ2xep8AKtBHjQIIgdbH9sr2tGPgox_X573uyCXQOE/w306-h400/gkd+birthday+wishes+brenda+turner.jpg" width="306" /></a></div>I made this for the monthly <a href="https://ginakdesigns.com/2021/06/01/june-2021-monthly-mix-challenge/?v=7516fd43adaa" target="_blank">challenge </a>at Gina K Designs.

I am in California and we are starting to see the signs of Spring everything is starting to bloom. Unfortunately we very much need more rain. At any rate I am enjoying the sun while hoping for some more rain before the heat cranks on. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Today I have an Easter card I made for this months challenge at Gina K Designs. The challenge this month is to create a masked blended sunrise. This is my take on it. I started with masking off a 1/4 inch boarder and blended from the bottom. Lucky Clover, Applemint, Lemon Drop, Sweet Mango, and Coral Reef. After removing the tape I stamped the daffodils and sentiment from Easter Blessings. I finished up with cutting my layers with Master Layouts 1.

I have a card I made for the <a href="https://ginakdesigns.com/2021/02/01/february-2021-monthly-mix-challenge/?v=7516fd43adaa" target="_blank">Love is in the Air</a> at Gina K Designs. This card was made with A Little Love bundle from Gina K Designs. I also used Master Layouts 3 and 4. I am enjoying this bundle so much. I will also be entering this into Simon Says Stamps challenge to use your <a href="https://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-favorite-technique/" target="_blank">favorite technique</a>. For me that would be ink blending. Ink blending is so much fun with stencils.<div><br /></div><div>Thank you for stopping by,</div><div>Brenda<br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a data-pin-config="none" data-pin-do="buttonPin" href="//pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2Fkentbrew%2F6851755809%2F&media=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm8.staticflickr.com%2F7027%2F6851755809_df5b2051c9_z.jpg&description=Next%20stop%3A%20Pinterest"><img src="//assets.pinterest.com/images/pidgets/pin_it_button.png" /></a></div>Brendahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16593081958301526686noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4519884813562598847.post-49536667921117067012021-02-17T16:24:00.001-08:002021-02-17T16:25:34.821-08:00On My Mind<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc6EGR4zEI6-DX7S6eRMh8mV5dDvPc6PhgIcFdsU_F_dc0nVEr1AqQ2hvSucoFuocQqa8aezohry-9nOzdfbZFeaRLoO892CHbgR-7V7wbLxnxJrI12sWsWOy_hZDvRu2cxjanB0Q8mkM/s2048/GKD+2021+On+My+Mind+Brenda+Turner.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1673" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc6EGR4zEI6-DX7S6eRMh8mV5dDvPc6PhgIcFdsU_F_dc0nVEr1AqQ2hvSucoFuocQqa8aezohry-9nOzdfbZFeaRLoO892CHbgR-7V7wbLxnxJrI12sWsWOy_hZDvRu2cxjanB0Q8mkM/s320/GKD+2021+On+My+Mind+Brenda+Turner.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div><br /></div><div>I played a little today and whipped up this card using Gina K Designs Better Together stamp set and some ink blending.

I hope all is well with you. I have a couple of gift bags I made for my son and DIL. They love extra dark chocolate (as do I) so I wanted to give them a little treat for tomorrow. I made these bags and filled them with their favorite chocolates. </div><div><br /></div><div>I used the bag gift bag folding board from We Are Memory Makers for the bag it self. The heart and love dies are cut using Gina K Designs Master Layouts 4 The stamped heart is also Gina K Designs from A Little Love set. A few weeks ago Gina did a video using smalls strips of paper to make the background in a die cut image and she mentioned you could also use washi tape. Well I am embarrassed to admit I have a bit more than a small amount of washi tape that I almost never use. Today was the time to pull it out. I really enjoyed using it this way. </div><div><br /></div><div>I will be entering this into the <a href="https://ginakdesigns.com/2021/02/01/february-2021-monthly-mix-challenge/?v=7516fd43adaa" target="_blank">Monthly challenge at Gina K Designs</a>, Love is in the Air. </div><div><br /></div><div>I hope you all have a wonderful and special day.</div><div><br /></div><div>Stay safe my friends and thank you for stopping by,</div><div>Brenda</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a data-pin-config="none" data-pin-do="buttonPin" href="//pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.flickr.com%2Fphotos%2Fkentbrew%2F6851755809%2F&media=http%3A%2F%2Ffarm8.staticflickr.com%2F7027%2F6851755809_df5b2051c9_z.jpg&description=Next%20stop%3A%20Pinterest"><img src="//assets.pinterest.com/images/pidgets/pin_it_button.png" /></a>Brendahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16593081958301526686noreply@blogger.com0
