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!
OK, now, check out all the amazing designs and inspiration:

Oh Cat! Outstanding!!!! My absolute fave is the first card - I'm totally gobsmacked with that one!
And the last card is next on my list. These two are totally my favourite style, and I adore them. (The others are great too - but the first and last are my absolute best picks!)
That simple touch of metal puts your cards over the top.
Love the grained look of the first card! And great bright kiddies cards too!
Wow! These are all fantastic and such variety! Love the first one with the aged look and the CAS orange slice is fun and summery, but they are all fabulous!
Major inspiration! That crackle idea is a must do!
Such cute cards as always Cat. And your jewelry is genius. Thanks for all the inspiration!
Loved the crackle medium to get the aged wood look. I need to try that!
Oh my goodness Cathy --- you've been super busy!
I really like the aged effect and those gorgeous flowers on your birthday card. The seashore card with the seahorses and cute pun is adorable. The framed orange slice with the stitching is fab and CAS! Love the Fishing You The Best card with all of its under the sea fun. Finally, your necklace is wonderful -- love the vellum over that gorgeous paper. Thanks for sharing your creativity.
I liked them all, but the necklace is my favorite. Love the "crafting" part.
I think you have used every element in the kit. Thanks for the inspiration.
Fun and inspiring cards!
Great cards! I especially loved the crackled paint card and the neclace pendant!
I liked all your cards, but my favorite is the "You are the sweetest" card with the orange slice. I like the geometric lines of it.
WOW! So many cool designs. Where do I start??? I love the simplicity of the orange slice card. Love the weathered boards in the first design. Also your ocean "party" is loads of fun. Beautiful work!
Great cards!
Awesome creations, Cat.
Love all of your cards and the metal/jewelry on them! Thanks for a surplus list.
Love your cards especially the "punny" ones.
My favorite is "I'm shore grateful" because I love water. The bluer the better! so of course I think your cards are great. :)
Love your cards and your pic...will work for stamps...too cute!!
I was glad to see FOUR inspirational cards. Thanks.
Have to say that last one is my favorite
I love your CAS cards, but the "Fishing You the Best" card takes the cake! Love it!
Really really gorgeous creations. And what a beautie that necklace. Really nice idea.
