#Ginabahrensdesignteam June 2018

The design prompts for this month are batch, type, variety.  I went outside the box a little this time to interpret variety.  I used a variety of colors and Gina's stencil with the word create to encourage variety in our art.

#Ginabahrensdesignteam May 2018

The design team prompts for this month are peak, height, flourish.  Sometimes you just have to think outside the box on a prompt.  So I chose one of Gina's digital doodles (doodlegirl #1) and the quote "she looks for adventure around every corner".

#ginabahrensdesigns April 2018 Team Design

This months prompts are develop, expand, and buildup.  I chose to use a few of her stamps for the words "Inspired Artistic Journey".  I built up layers of circles and colors.  The quote was used to encourage myself and others to expand our world of creativity.

#ginabahrensdesigns March 2018 Design Team Project

My goal for this months prompt was to use one of Gina's stencils. The prompt was portion, segment, section. I used the stencil Four Square 1.  This stencil has the face and the quote I used. I also used a small piece of handmade paper Gina had gifted me and stenciled the face on it.  I incorporated the prompts into the background of the page.  I wanted to keep this art journal page simple.

#Ginabahrensdesign 2018 February design Team Project

I've enjoyed being on Gina's design dream and want to share my second project with you.  Our prompt was compassion, tenderness, resolve.

I chose to create four ATC cards.
My goal was to use my newest set of Gina's stamps.  I used one of her newest designs which is set #15. I just love all the hands and hearts.  Even though our prompts were not specifically Valentine related I thought they still reflected the month of February.
