THE PRIZE

A $20 gift certificate to the Gina K Designs store.

My challenge is to make anything but a Christmas card or project. I'm kinda thinking we are all tired of making Christmas cards. So this pretty much gives you carte blanche with whatever you want to make.

Here's my card:

Unfortunately, I needed a sympathy card. I thought this beautiful rose stamp from the Frame and Flowers 2 set was perfect. This is a multi-step stamp set which was part of the GKD Flowers and Frames Kit. It's now available as just the stamp set. This set has companion dies.....love that. The frame is also part of the set and has it's companion die as well.

Here are the Ingredients:

GKD White, Black Onyx & Red Hot Card Stock
