So glad you’re joining us for Day 2 of inspiration hops for Gina K Designs! Seems like there was much excitement for all the stamp sets, but what really is awesome is when an illustrator comes up with a companion set for a previously released set because it extends the versatility of them!
Here is another one of those, Whimsical Wishes by Theresa Momber, which is a companion set to her Vogue Vases! I made a super clean & simple card that packs a punch with colorful bright inks of one of the solid circle stamps in the set. Just look at the awesome versatility in the set! My favorite is the very large sentiment I used on my card!
Next up is a set by Gina K called Garden Fresh, which is perfect for summer with the fruits & veggies in the set! I decided to make a fun box to store some 3 x 3 notecards I made. I kept the box simple to showcase the fun pattern paper Hometown Summer by Pink Paislee, with small tag – this would make a cute hostess or neighbor gift.
Here is a photo of the box open and here is a link to the tutorial for the box I made, it is super easy!
Here is the first set of cards made using the same papers and matching sentiments. I paper-pieced the apple.
Here is the second set using the same items and different layouts. These come together so quickly!
Here is the last set, I drew in some smiley faces on the peas and paper-pieced the pears for a fun look!
