Beautiful cards Gina. Love the technique and those silhouette stamps. Thanks so much for sharing. I think I told you, but you were the very first person I ever watched making cards on RUclips and I'm still watching you. You have a lovely calm voice and you demonstrate everything so beautifully. Fabulous job. Thanks so much for sharing.
Your videos are some of my favorites to watch. Your stamping techniques and the way you explain what you're doing, makes it easy for me to use the techniques. Thank you Gina, beautiful cards!
beautiful designs, first time I've watched your videos, you explain your techniques crystal clear - thank you look forward seeing your other techniques
Gina, I just love these cards because they are simple yet elegant. I'm exited to use my Masking Magic for them too. Thanks for all these beautiful ideas.
Gorgeous cards Gina, I love the Outside the Box idea, I have several small silhouette style stamps and never like to use them because I didn't know what to do with them. This is the answer, I will give this a try that's for sure. My favorite is the one with the Smile sentiment. Thank you so much for showing this great idea.
Hello Gina, Outside the box you tube was awesome !!! Love how you blended these colors on the 3 sample cards you made. Truth I thought no way are these colors would work... WOW. Thank you sue
Awesome way to use silhouette stamps! I love the colors you chose for the backgrounds. Great technique, too. Thanks for sharing, & have a great day! :)
As a collage artist I can’t say enough positive words about the Gina k connect glue....I have used on some large paper paintings and it has never let me down....a must have...mraz
These are so beautiful Gina. I haven't done a card with this technique in a long time. I always loved the look of this design but with so many new ideas over the years, you tend to forget some of the wonderful older techniques. I am definitely going to make some of these. Thanks for sharing it.
I love this technique. I have some stamps that I have been meaning to use, but didn't quite know how, now I do. Thanks for sharing, these cards are just beautiful.
Your cards are beautiful, as are you Gina. I love listening to your Videos as you explain your techniques beautifully as well. I love all 3 cards. We do not have very many of your products here in Australia because of postage I suppose. A few Craft Companies are starting to get them in small quantities though. Hopefully we shall be able to purchase more of your products here. God Bless and thank you for sharing.
These are beautiful, I love this technique. Gina, it had been years since I spent any time making cards, then I took your class at the Minneapolis Pinners Conference. In fact, it was the one class I knew I HAD to take! Now I'm hooked again. All the stamps are back out and I'm buying new ones. Thanks so much for helping reignite this fire! (My husband says thanks too... but his tone is a little different. LOL!)
When putting down your masking paper, why not line up the side that still has the backing and then lay down the sticky side. Then you just peel off the other side. First side lays down perfectly without any fuss.
Hello I’ve been looking for a matte glue alternative to matte medium and you state in this video your Connect Glue dries without shine. I’ve just checked on the SSS site using your given link to purchase it & a customer has left a comment that it DOES leave it shiny when dry. Please advise.
Hi, Gina! Stunning as ever! :) I love using silhouette stamps because coloring images is not exactly my strong suite. Anyone out there with arthritis use the new Life Changing Blenders? I am wondering if they are easier to use than other blending tools. CheerS!
I do not have arthritis but I do have Multiple Sclerosis. I am often challenged with other blending tools, although I have many, due to the grip angle that my hand has to hold the tool. I LOVE the PF Life Changing Brushes because my hand can be at a normal "resting" angle vs. a more over the top type of "claw" angle. I can blend for a much longer period of time before pain/fatigue set in and end my fun. Hope this helps!
Hi Jennifer, I used the Black Onyx because it dries a little bit faster and since I wasn't coloring anything, I just went for that. You can certainly use Black Amalgam ink if you prefer. :)
Hi Gina, What cardstock is the best to blend on? Is it good to use your regular smooth cardstock or something different? I noticed that your cardstock with more tooth in it is listed in the supplies. I have trouble blending and I just purchased these two brushes, so this may help me. Thank you!
QUESTION: I struggle with silhouette cards as I am not a fan of black stamping? Gina, would stamping in another color still give a nice effect? Thankyou!
It would! If you used Navy or a chocolate brown, you can get beautiful results! It should be a darker color than your backgrounds to have this effect. :)
Loved these cards. Definitely will try these.
Love this technique. Will try to remember the oval for Easter!

Gina, I just love these cards because they are simple yet elegant. I'm exited to use my Masking Magic for them too. Thanks for all these beautiful ideas.
hi, do you re-use your masking magic? If so, how do you store it?
@@shalacarter6658 Yes, you can reuse it. Just save the paper liners and put them back on or store them on a piece of acetate. :)
Gorgeous cards Gina, I love the Outside the Box idea, I have several small silhouette style stamps and never like to use them because I didn't know what to do with them. This is the answer, I will give this a try that's for sure.

So many great ways to an image -thank you Gina K & SSS
Gridlines added onto the masking paper may help with die-cutter and other alignment.
Beautiful Gina! Thank you

Love this, Gina! Another fun technique to try!

Beautiful cards...I was looking for cards using negative space.
Beautiful cards! ☺️
Beautiful cards! Thank you for sharing.......Betty
Gorgeous cards! Thank you! 👍🏻
When putting down your masking paper, why not line up the side that still has the backing and then lay down the sticky side. Then you just peel off the other side. First side lays down perfectly without any fuss.
Saintly2 Yes, I see what you mean.
Great idea!!
Beautiful cards & a simple but effective technique. Your videos are always so professional & restful to watch. Rina's style is somewhat different ;).
To clarify: I do NOT mean she is unprofessional.
Beautiful cards Gina! Love all your cards!
gorgeous cards, it would be impossible for me to pick a favorite since their all three winners
love the idea, they are beautiful. Can you reuse the the masking magic if you save and put the backing back on them?We
Beautiful. Could you line up the masking side that has the backing? Then lay down the sticky side! Just an idea!!

Hi, Gina!
Stunning as ever! :) I love using silhouette stamps because coloring images is not exactly my strong suite.
Anyone out there with arthritis use the new Life Changing Blenders? I am wondering if they are easier to use than other blending tools.

I can blend for a much longer period of time before pain/fatigue set in and end my fun. Hope this helps!
I have arthritis and these are way easier to use. I think you hold these in a more natural position and your hands don't get cramped up.
A black border magically appears on the cards at the end. How was that done? ☺
dj b I have the same question
If you cut your paper to 3 3/4 what size do you cut your black
Is there a reason you used the black onyx instead of amalgam for the silhouette stamps?
Hi Jennifer, I used the Black Onyx because it dries a little bit faster and since I wasn't coloring anything, I just went for that. You can certainly use Black Amalgam ink if you prefer. :)
Is there is a reason for doing 3 layers of Hello as opposed to just using a thicker piece of paper to cut it from?
Beautiful cards, but can you please explain how to add the black border?
What technique did you use to get the black like so well positioned. Love your technique.
Hello there!
Start the video at 3:15! Gina explains her process of getting an even, bold stamp result!
Hope this helps and have a wonderful day! (:
This is great, can you re-use the masking paper over and over?
Hi Gina, What cardstock is the best to blend on? Is it good to use your regular smooth cardstock or something different? I noticed that your cardstock with more tooth in it is listed in the supplies. I have trouble blending and I just purchased these two brushes, so this may help me. Thank you!
Deborah Anne, I like both the Artist's Choice and the Pure Luxury 120lb white. Both should give you a nice blend. :)
Thank you Gina!
QUESTION: I struggle with silhouette cards as I am not a fan of black stamping? Gina, would stamping in another color still give a nice effect? Thankyou!
It would! If you used Navy or a chocolate brown, you can get beautiful results! It should be a darker color than your backgrounds to have this effect. :)
Thank you!
Wonderful cards! I don't have the Black Onyx Ink but I do have your Black Amalgam Ink, would that work in place of the Black Onyx Ink?
For sure it will!
