Christmas Cards in July using Gina K. Designs

For the next set of cards that I created I used Gina K Designs Sparkle and Shine stamp set. This is a wonderful set that includes the images below plus a round ornament and Christmas tree. I stamped the image and sentiment in VersaMark and embossed it with silver embossing powder (on light blue cardstock) & gold embossing powder (on red cardstock). I die cut the sentiments and adhered them with pop dots to the 'ornaments' then die cut the card panels and layered them onto silver and gold cardstock. I used GKD master layout dies. I then added sequins to the fronts.

Christmas in July Cards using Gina K. Designs

Here is my next set of my Christmas cards using Gina's Holiday Tapestry stamp set. This set is so versatile! Although it's a Christmas set the tapestry images can be used all year. Again I embossed the image and sentiments in gold & silver and layered the card panels on gold & silver cardstock. I also made some gold embossed images on red and gold cardstock but I didn't get photos of them. Gold and silver sequins were also added.

Christmas in July Cards using Gina K Designs

Hello Crafters! Since we only have six months until Christmas (gasp!),  it's time to start working on this years cards. But first I wanted to post the cards that I made in 2020 since I hadn't before. I made roughly 45 - 50 cards last year for not only friends and family but also for a card swap for members of a Facebook group that I belong to. I made 4 different card designs changing the colors slightly for each design.

This first one is probably my favorite! I used Gina K Designs Wreath Builder template, Holiday Wreath Builder stamp set and the Scripty Holiday stamp set. Using the wreath builder makes creating cards so simple! Once I knew which stamps I wanted to use and a design that I was happy with, I made the first card. After that first one was complete, the rest were easy and I made them all while watching TV. 


I used two different ribbons from my stash and red Stickles for the berries.


Below is my work in progress using the wreath builder:


This was one of my favorite Christmas cards that I created last year and 
I may use my new Gina K Wreath Builder for this years card!

I'll share some more of my Christmas cards in my next post!
