GinaK Designs Previews, Day 3

Today's previews feature Gina's own design called Sweetest Memories. It is the new Free with Three this month. When you purchase 3 stamp sets, you get this one free! How cool is that?

This is a great set for both cardmaking and scrapbooking. I did a bit of distressing on my card. I used one of the sentiments form the set stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa. I also used images from Many Wishes and Tropical Flowers sets. I sponged the edges of my Sweet Corn cardbase. I also used Tan Leather CS, Chocolate Kiss ribbon, Vivid Inks (Tuscan Tan, Straw).

SM 1

And I made this ornament using Basic Grey's Nook & Pantry DP and a combination of a few Spellbinder dies. I stamped the DP with the music stamp from Vintage Borders and the flower with the same sentiment that I used above. The bracketted word "family" is also from this set. The little strips of text are from Making Memories.


For even more ways to use this fabulous stamp set, please check tonight's featured Illustrator's blog: GinaK {Sweetest Memories}. Then, visit our Designers' blogs participating in the previews tonight:
