Good morning. We have a new challenge starting today for Gina's Designs Craft Group. The group is FREE to join. To be a member of the group, just follow the link above! 

This month the challenge is-

 Anything Under the Rainbow.

Anything colorful will work: a card, ATC, layout, off the page - whatever you would like :)

All you need to do is add a photo of your project to the Facebook group.

Winner of the challenge will receive a $10.00 gift certificate from Gina's Designs.

For my project I used the Page Frame Photo Reel! I transformed the reel into a color wheel by using sprays, flowers and butterflies in the same colors. Flourishes were added that I painted gold and cut into smaller sizes. I used only the top layers of the Layered Flourish-Renata and the Layered Flourish-Chloe in the flower clusters.

Good luck!

April Challenge for Gina's Designs Craft Group

Good morning and welcome to the April challenge for Gina's Designs Craft Group on Facebook!

For my project, I altered a canvas.

I started with a photo I took of my roses and one of Gina's large dollies. 

The butterfly has many layers. I used shredded burlap and black corrugated cardboard and one more layer of burlap. I finished it off with a piece of decorative tape.    

I used one of the word stackers - Inspire 

After adding the flowers and trim, I spattered white and black paint all over the canvas.

Don't forget to check out the challenge on Facebook. You could win a $10.00 gift card for Gina's Designs! Good luck!
