Gina K Elegant Asters
Hi Crafty Friends, Sandi here and my inspiration today is the Gina K Elegant Asters Sepia Card.

This stamp set has a beautiful selection of flowers and leaves, a fabulous butterfly and some great sentiments (although I didn’t use them for today’s card).
I used four Copic Markers to create my Sepia color for the design pieces: E41, E43, E44 and #47. Once all the images were colored, I cut them out with the coordinating dies.

For the background, I started with a piece of Gina K Kraft card stock and die cut it with a stitched square die.
I used the Gina K Leafy Stencil and Gina K Kraft Ink with a Life Changing Brush to add a little “background noise” behind where my art pieces would go.
I also inked around the edge before mounting it to a black mat and then my 5 x 5 square top folding card base.
I repeated the stencil design lightly on the inside of the card and duplicate the mat layers as well before adding the extra art pieces. NOTE: the leaves on this one I left black and white and I really like the contrast to the Sepia flower.
I used foam squares to attach the art pieces and then added a three layered die cut sentiment.
My final embellishment, I used the Nuvo Crystal Drops in Ebony Black to add some interest down the left side of the card.
Here’s a short video I created walking you through the Copic Flicking technique and the sepia color for the card.
Here’s another card I did recently using the same stamp set. This time coloring the flowers in pinks:
Copic Markers used:
Leaves: YG21, YG17, YG23
Flowers: RV13, RV14, RV25
Flower Center Y15
That’s it for me today, I hope you enjoyed my projects with the Gina K Elegant Asters. I have shared the products I used below with links to the Stamp ‘N Scrap Online Store.
