Dots & Winners

 

Hello Friends, How are you?! I am missing you all and hope you are good. Today I have a card and lots of winners to announce. Thanks for being patient.

I was at a crafty retreat this weekend and was able to meet Gina from Gina K Designs. She’s a spit fire and so sweet, adorable and awesome.

When I saw this stamp set in Gina’s  stash I had to color it immediately. (The stamp set is part of a kit). The individual stamp set won’t be available for two months. Sorry about that. I wish the color translated well in photo of this “Lipstick” colored envelope. It’s a very vibrant pink. LOVE!

I stamped on the image on this watercolor paper and used this ink. . I love the bold colors of the Zig watercolor markers  because they are so vibrant and fun to use. Here is another card that was used with the Zigs. Lipstick cardstock was used for the inside of the card for a bold pop of color.

The flowers were popped with some foam tape. I had a blast adding lots of white dots with this.

 

In case you are curious this is what the kit looks like.

Ok drum roll please. I have some winners to announce and a super big congrats to the winners. Thanks to you all for entering the giveaways.

  43. Karen Page says

    Whoo hoo!!! I just got back from being out of town on a school field trip with 150 high school kids to find out I won something!!! That was a nice surprise, even if it is only sequins 😉 A girl needs a little sparkle after being around that many teenagers, right?!? Lol Thanks so much Kathy!!! Your card is gorgeous and that Gina K stamp is a must-have! That baby is gonna sell out the day its available as a single item. Just stunning and so versatile too!

  44. Gail Plaskiewicz says

    Thank you so very much for picking me as a winner!I can’t tell you what it means to me but then I think you know. It’s getting a little easier this week but it’s still hard. Thank you for your prayers and good wishes. I appreciate them so very much. Now on to your card.
    Do you know what your card reminds me of? A few of my coloring books that I have. I love that stamp! I can’t afford the whole set but I possibly afford that one stamp. I love the colors you used on the card. It’s very pretty and I think I can see where you added the dots. I tried to see the stamp to see where you could have added the dots but I couldn’t see it in a big enough size to check. I need to make some Thank You cards for people who cared for my dad and this would have been an awesome card for that. It’s a beautiful card.
    Thank you again for picking me as a winner and congrats to all the other winners. I hope everyone enjoys all their goodies and I will be standing by my mailbox like Charlie Brown waiting for the mailman to come and deliver mine. I can’t wait!

    • Kathy Racoosin says

      I am so happy to bring a little cheer to you Gail, during this tough time. Enjoy your prize!

  45. Gail Plaskiewicz says

    Okay, I sent you a long e-mail here and it showed up okay but I forgot to mention that I didn’t get this e-mail. I had to go on your site and click on it to see my name. A friend of mine sent me an e-mail saying I won something or I would not have even known. This happened once or twice before when I won something but I didn’t know because I never got that e-mail. I don’t remember if it was your site or Jennifer’s or whose but it has happened before. I’m just glad I have friends who tell me when I win so I can collect my prizes. Thanks once again for picking me to win something. I truly appreciate it.

  46. Olga Dendrinou Fink says

    Oh wow Kathy! this stamp was made for you! Such great coloring!
    We miss you too and can’t wait for the next challenge!
    Congratulations to all the lucky winners!
    xoxo Olga

  48. Lisa Tilson says

    I can see why you picked this stamp to colour up whilst you were away. It’s just perfect for your colouring and dots. And I love the bold area for the sentiment – gorgeous stamp set.

    Congratulations to all the winners, and thank you Kathy for yet another 30 days of wonderful inspiration! Hugs, Lisa x

  49. Candy Mills says
