You Will Get Through This - CardsforUkraine

 Hello peeps,

A few days ago, Gina from Gina K Designs released this digital stamp and she is donating 100% of the sales to Global Empowerment Mission to help with the Ukraine crisis. In addition to the sunflower image, the file has several great sentiments. 

My card today uses this image and a few other GKD supplies. 

I printed the image onto white card stock and and colored it with Copic markers, then fussy cut it out. The background is made with the GKD Layering Hearts stencil, GKD Blue Raspberry and Powder Blue inks, and a blending brush. It's cut out with the GKD Master Layouts 7 stitched die for mini-slimline cards. The mat is GKD Blue Raspberry card stock. The "You" stamp is from another GKD stamp set and the bottom sentiment is part of the digital download for the sunflower image.

The Color Hues Challenge is running a special color combination challenge of blue and yellow, so I'm adding this card to their challenge gallery.





On the inside of my card, I've used an older GKD stamp set that has the same sunflower image in three sizes. I kept it simple stamping the smallest three times in Wild Dandelion ink and using a sentiment from the recent Forrest Friends stamp set.


Have a good day all. Thanks for looking,
Colleen

#cardsforukraine: Peace

 Hello,

Paper crafters on Instagram and FaceBook are posting cards to show "light, love, encouragement" and support for the people of Ukraine in their time of darkness. Cards in blue and yellow, and/or with sunflowers as the focal images are being made. Such a great idea, and something that I'm totally behind. You can check out the IG gallery here.

I've used products from Avery Elle, Pink Fresh Studio, Concord & 9th and Gina K Designs to make my card to participate. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the Ukrainian people.



Thanks, and be safe,
Colleen
