new cards and a giveaway

Hi, everyone! I hope that you are having a great start to your 4th of July weekend. I have been super swamped with projects that I have been doing for CHA. Unfortunately, I can't share those until after the show.
So, I thought that I would share with you some recent cards that I created using the Homespun Chic line from GCD Studios

Beautiful Brave girl card

This is a card that I made for Breast Cancer awareness month. Did you notice the cute felt flowers and epoxy they are
from Epiphany Crafts. To make the epoxy I simply downloaded a pink ribbon from a Breast cancer awareness site, then used my custom shape studio tool.

Breathe in...

this one I made for my friends that are affected by Fibromyalgia (I am one of them). Some days are harder then others, so it is nice to have encouragement.

What a woman...

this is a just because card, but it could be used for encouragement too. I love the message.

and now for the giveaway....
GCD Studios is giving away a free kit of the month. This kit is jammed pack with goodies from The Great Outdoors and Fun House collections


make sure that you visit their blog for a chance to win.

Not so serious

Hi all! Gina here! I am so excited to share a recent layout that I made for GCD studios. When I first got my Design Team box from GCD studios I was so excited to break it open and try out the chip art pieces and tools. I used them for the very first time on this fun layout with the Homespun Chic collection by Melody Ross.



for this project I used:







To create the stars I used the chip art ornamental frame tool on the chipboard stars.



Then I painted both stars white and then misted one with glimmer mist.


After they dried, I punched a hole through them with a hole punch and then brads (from the Homespun chic collection) to give them some flair.

Here is a closeup of the star

They make really fun embellishments!
