Hello and welcome! If you're coming from Melanie Muenchinger's blog, you are on the right track.Today we are celebrating the release of the new 2018 colors by Gina K. Designs. This release consists of ten AMAZING inks and eight new coordinating card stocks and envelopes. (The Black and Sandy Beach card stock and envelopes are already available at the store). So let's get started!

 New Color Names:

Coral Reef, Tangerine Twist, Key Lime, Lucky Clover, Sea Glass, Tranquil Teal, Plum Punch, Slate, Sandy Beach and the new Jet Black Amalgam Ink.

You're going to love the new Amalgam Ink. Works well with colored pencils and gamsol, alcohol markers and water colors. No need to keep changing ink pads. This one will not smear, bleed or stain!

Let me show you the cards I have created for this hop!



First up I have a card featuring the new set Lettered and Lovely illustrated by Emily Schroepfer. 

New Inks Used: Amalgam, Plum Punch, Tranquil Teal and Sea Glass
Cardstock: Pure Luxury White, Plum Punch and Black Onyx 




For this card I used images from the StampnFoil™ clear stamp set by Gina K. Designs for Therm O Web called Time To Celebrate. I did not foil any of the images in this card. It would of been a little hard to do with the balloons overlapping!

New Inks Used: Black Onyx, Key Lime, Sea Glass, Lucky Clover, Tranquil Teal, Coral Reef and Tangerine Twist.
Card Stock: Pure Luxury Sea Glass and Black Onyx




For my last card I used three of the cute images from a set that was released last year called Spring Fling by Beth Silaika. The sentiment is from Springtime Baskets by Claire Brennan. The front panel of my card was sponged with Key Lime ink on Key Lime card stock using the Daisy Chain GKD Art Stencil.

New Inks Used: Black Onyx, Key Lime, Lucky Clover, Sea Glass and Tangerine Twist.
Card Stock: Pure Luxury White and Key Lime.


The new release is available now at Gina K. Designs!
