Just check back in a couple of days on StampTV and check the Big News forum to see if you are the winner!

I have several cards to show you today, I so love these StampTV kits! I just go a little crazy using them! :D Up first is a card that a gave a little tease on FB of. Here is the full card:

I used some acrylic paints on this, and some crackle medium to get the aged wood look. (the Gina K Design kraft cardstock is a REALLY good cardstock to use with acrylic paints...super sturdy!) Then I scored it with the scor-pal. The little tag is done by doing metal hand stamping (hammer, steel block and letters). Another love of mine is making jewelry and I love to be able to use those WITH my Gina K stamps!

Next up is a fun little seahorse!

He was colored using the rock-n-roll technique using Gina K Design inks in Blue Raspberry and Grass Green. I also stamped and embossed him using versamark ink and clear embossing powder onto the kraft cardstock for my bg paper. LOVE how this turned out! :D

Next up, super easy and quick one:

See?! Super easy one! and pretty quick. I did the stitching by hand so that is the only thing that took a bit of time. That used the new Sew Easy tool that I found at HL.

Another fun one:

I went a little crazy with the dp! It is sooo awesome! So I used alot of the blue tones to create my 'ocean', LOL! The little fishing pole and hook (dont worry, its craft wire and will not poke you!) were made using a tooth pick, craft thread and craft wire. Isnt it cute!?!

Ok, still with me? haha! Next up is me combining my love of making jewelry and GKD stamps and papers:

I stamped onto that gorgeous new dp from Gina K, Watercolor Garden, and then laid a piece of vellum over the top of it. I stamped the little butterflies onto the glass with stayz on ink. It's so hard to get a good picture of this, but I do hope you can tell pretty much how it turned out. I've worn it already, lol!
