Here is my card:

For this card I used a Gina K Designs stamp set by Beth Silaika called Spring Fling. I also used a Gina K Designs background stamp by Melanie Muenchinger called Inspiration Mosaic. All images were stamped with Gina K Designs Obsidian Amalgam Ink. I used various patterned papers and paper pieced them in the rectangles. There are many beautiful papers in the Gina K Designs collection to chose from. The greeting is also from the Spring Fling Stamp Set. Gina K Designs card stock used was Jelly Bean Green, Lemon Drop, Bubblegum Pink and White.

Double D - BANNERS

Dear Ones~
It's a BANNER day over at Double D. The challenge this time is to include BANNERS on your card. Here is our Mood Board:

This is what I came up with:

The whole background is one stamp by Paper Wishes. It was colored with Arteza Brush Pens after heat embossing with black embossing powder. I am practicing with these pens. The colors are really bright, and they work well on Bristol Board. I decided to fussy cut the border for more interest.

The Ingredients:

GKD Turquoise Sea Card

GKD White Card

Strathmore Bristol Board

GKD Black Embossing Powder

Elizabeth Crafts Happy Birthday 2 Die

Paper Wishes Flowers and Ribbons Stamp

Arteza Real Brush Pens

SU Pearls
