Smackin Acetate with Gina K

Gina K has been helping me get my mojo back. It’s been fun.   If you haven’t been watching her videos on Mon, Weds and Fridays, you should.   Her Facebook page is Gina K Designs & StampTV friends.   She also has a YouTube channel, Gina K. designs.

This past Friday was “Smackin Acetate”.  Here are the six cards I made with this technique...



I used TH watercolor paper on all of my cards, along with GK heavy weight white cs and orange and turquoise blue cs from my stash.

 
This first card features GK’s ink cubes, Moonlit Fog, Bubblegum Pink and Turquoise Sea.  The flowers are from a retired SU stamp set and “hello friend” is from GK. It must have been a freebie as it doesn’t show a name of the set on the packaging.










I used the same ink cubes and “grateful for you” is in the same GK set that didn’t come with a name. The cattail Stamp is from Paper Inspirations.












This card again uses the same ink cubes and sentiment by GK.  The stamp is from GK’s “Framecape Winter Trees”.












This card, I used Peach Bellini, Turquoise Sea and Moonlit Fog ink cubes.   The grasses are from Sweet ‘n Sassy “Wetland Grass”
















I switched to Tombow markers for this card. The orange is  #933, the pink is #703 and the blue is #371.
The hello is from WPlus 9 “Hand Lettered Hello”.  The trees are from GK’s “Seasonal Sentiments”, which I stamped 3 times on the card panel.















This is my favorite.  Again I used the same Tombow markers as I did in the card above. The stamp set is from GK “Framescape Winter Trees”.

This one I’m saving for Father’s Day to give to my hubby.





I usually don’t have much success with this technique, but I will say I like the way my panels with the Tombow markers turned out best. I think I’ll be using this technique in the future with other Tombow markers.

Have a great week.

  1. They are ALL absolutely BEAUTIFUL Sue and it definitely was a fun technique to play with! And yes, the sentiments on your 1st cards were a freebie stamp set that was added to orders about a year ago I think...I use mine a LOT!! :0)
