Preview Day 3- Whimsical Autumn

When I first started Gina K. Designs, it was me, a sketch book and a pen.
I hadn't even considered the possibility of having anyone else illustrate stamps for my company. After all, they were "Gina K." designs.

But then I had the pleasure of meeting Carolyn King. Carolyn had drawn a few images that she thought would work as stamps and she contacted me.

I wasn't even sure what to say at first but when I saw her darling images, I knew she would fit right in. I HAD to make her sweet drawings into rubber. Plus, she's originally from Philadelphia and so am I. We had that "Philly cheese steak" kind of connection. LOL!

This Friday, Carolyn is about to release her fourth Gina K. Designs stamp set and I couldn't be more excited about these images!

Before I show you the first peek, I wanted to let you in on something about this set.

This is a photo of Carolyn and her Grandmother. Earlier this summer, Carolyn's sweet grandmother passed away. She told me that her Grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's disease. For those of you who have watched a loved one slowly slip away from the terrible disease, you know what Carolyn, her family and her beloved Grandmother went through.

  

Carolyn asked me to have this statement printed on the inserts of her new stamp set and I wanted to share it here with you today.

"100% of my proceeds will be donated to the Alzheimer's Association in my grandmother's memory." Carolyn King
.  .  .  .  .

"Whimsical Autumn"



"A little squirrel scampers over to a huge bushel of apples. 'Many thanks!' he says as he scurries off with one!" LOL!

I love the feel of this new stamp set called "Whimsical Autumn." Don't those apples look good enough to eat? When I first saw this set, I imagined myself with my little ones, all bundled up on a brisk autumn morning headed out for the pumpkin patch.

This set contains 12 images. Priced at only $15.95, it is a fabulous addition to your Autumn collection and the images work for just about any occasion.



I used Copic markers to color all of the images on this card. To make the background paper, I used some white core DCWV brown card stock and ran it through my cuttlebug. Then, using some sand paper, I distressed it and rubbed some metallic rub-on paste in our new color combo that we will be releasing on Friday night!

This new set of metallic rub-on paste contains cranberry red for Christmas,  bright copper that is absolutely gorgeous, holiday green, bright silver, bright gold, deep plum purple and turquoise blue. This is a great compliment to the first set we currently carry. 

The next project uses two more of my favorites from this set.



Nothing says Autumn like a vase full of pussy willows. I colored the images using Copic markers and I used the Janome Sew-mini sewing machine to add some stitching. I cut out and embossed the vase and greeting with nestabilities.



Again, I used the new metallic rub-on paste to highlight all of the embossed edges.

Do you like that paper? That is from another patterned paper pack that we will be releasing on Friday night called "Lucky n' Love." You will love the patterns and textures of this 6 X 6 double sided paper pack. I can't wait to show it all to you!

Other images in this stamp set include the cutest leaves and flourishes and a pumpkin that looks like it might belong to Cinderella!

Just when I think you can't possibly have any more clever ideas, you surprise me! Wow! Do you have a spare room in the back of the store? I promise I won't take much space. I'll work for stamps and snacks...
Keep up the good work. It's inspiring!



Congratulations to the winner of Autumn Leaves

My grandfather suffered and died from this disease and we had to move him into our home so that he could have constant care. It was a struggle for us all but we know that he is so much happier now!

    Thank you so much for supporting this wonderful cause. My father (who is only 57) has Alzheimer's and it is heartbreaking to watch the amazing man who raised me slowly slip away and be replaced by a stranger. Twice a year I host a week-long "Stampin' Out Alzheimer's" event through my blog with lots of stamping and scrapbooking challenges and blog candy give-aways. I recommend (but don't require) a $5 donation to the Alzheimer's Association from each participant. It always touches my heart to see others supporting this cause as well. Thank you!

    What a sweet way to honor Carolyn's grandmother. I'm in tears reading about this.

    I have to share a dorky moment, though. I saw the name of the set as whimsical AUTISM! Indeed, the autism in this house in autumn and every other season can be quite whimsical!

I look forward to coming here everyday just to see your awesome work that gives me such inspiration plus the extra bonus of possibly winning something special. Don't you ever quit doing this as it would break lots of hearts. A big thank you goes to Carolyn King for her generosity to Alzheimers patients and their families. My Mother In Law is in the late stages and we are fearing the worst is coming soon. Thank you for contributing to such a fantastic organazation.

    I never cease to be amazed at how many people's lives are being touched by the cross of disease - whether they themselves struggle with the disease, or they are supporting a loved one with love and prayer. My prayer is that all remember that we do not struggle and suffer alone - our suffering IS our salvation. His comfort, strength and peace to all! My grandmother also has alzheimers.

    How Cute!! I'm so stamp challenged and never know what stamps to buy because I don't know what to do with them once I have them, my collection of unused stamps is quite large! But, YOU change all that with each and every post you do! Thanks for the inspiration!

    Hugs and prayers to Carolyn and her family. I tried many years ago to get a Children's book about my grandma's Alzheimer's published, (also with 100% going to Alzheimer's) but couldn't get anyone to even talk to me. You go girl! Thank YOU Gina, for allowing ladies like these to help such deserving causes. God bless you both.

She must hold a very special place in her heart. Can't wait until Friday....adding to my "wish list" every day as each new "sneak peek" comes out.

    Carolyn's little squirrel is so adorable, and the basket of apples takes me back to my childhood, going apple picking with my family. (Evokes a very sweet memory) God Bless Carolyn and her family for being good caretakers. My husband has an incurable muscle disease, and any disease of this sort can take its toll on an entire family. Blessings to Carolyn and her family!

    I want to thank Carolyn for her profit donation to Alzheimers. What a wonderful way to honor her grandmother!! I watched my mother slip away from us due to this disease. It's a terrible thing for a person to lose all their wonderful memories and also terrible for the family to watch it happen and know there is nothing you can do. If for no other reason than to support Caroline's donation, I will be purchasing this set. (But I do love it, so that is good!!!)

    Thanks again Caroline and Gina for your generosity and support.

    I also watched my best friend, my beloved grandmother lose her memories of her life to this disease and I feel I truly lost her 4 years before she actually passed away due to watching her forget about everthing and everyone she loved. I am so touched this set is for such a good cause. blessings to you both

    This cause is near and dear to my heart. My grandmother had Alzheimers. I also work with Elders and their families everyday who struggle with this awful disease. I would love to win this adorable set, but if I don't I will be purchasing it for sure. Thanks for this chance

    Cute,cute sets. I can appreciate the horrible disease Alzheimers. My father-in-law was suffering with it when he passed away. It is terrible. My heart goes out to Carolyn.

    I'm sitting here eating Peanut butter out of the jar and remembered how my gramma would put PB on a cookie and feed it to the little squirrel who visited her back porch every day. My grampa would get so mad as he thought she might get bit. Guess its why I fell in love with squirrels and leave them peanuts (and the dogs chase them) but the squirrel always wins!

    These stamps are great---makes one remember sweeter, easier times--which bring back good memories.Anything with little animals make me feel good.
    My prayers go out to her and her family in the loss of her "Granny". It's hard when those we always went to for advice, no longer remember us. Her mind is now perfectly clear---remember that.
