Simple Pleasures Beach layout with Gina's Designs

Hello friends! Happy Labor Day weekend!

Welcome to Gina's Designs blog, Debbie with you today! With summer coming to an end and the snow will soon fly where I live,  I'd thought I'd share a fun beach layout with you all. I love beaches and my water sign draws me to them. I've always wanted to live on a beach and maybe someday my dream to do that will happen. Sometimes even living as far from a beach as I do you dream you are there and while I was designing this layout it felt like I was right there. This pier is in Belize.

I simply used acrylic paint for my chipboard pieces, inked them and rubbed them with Metallic rubs from DecoArt.

I gave the frame a Patina feel...it just felt like it fit.   Thanks for stopping by today!

Cat Photo Display Tray by Nancy

Hi everyone, it's Nancy here today with one of the Gina's Design's Photo Display Trays which currently are available in six styles.  This one is called the "Cat's Meow".   This was so much fun to create using one of my kitties "Timothy" as my inspiration along with shapes from our Nancy's Garden collection, and other favorite pieces from Gina's Designs.  These Photo Display Trays are made of sturdy wood, and are so versatile and easy to work with.  In this project my pieces were mostly colored with Prima Chalk Inks.  In some cases I've embossed with either clear UTEE, or Stampendous crystal embossing powder.

Above is the finished piece

Here I used one of our Intricate Border Sticks, an Ornamental Birdcages Shape Set, and the Small Leafy Tree which I cut up into pieces.

I framed this section with one of our ivy corners

The word "love" is also from Gina's Designs, from the 10 word package.  You can also see another view of the lace border stick and pieces from the leafy tree.  Some of the grids come with overlay pieces.  Here the word "meow", and two of the skeleton fish are overlays.

I've framed this section with the smallest sized palm tree.
