Welcome to another preview of the latest new stamps from Gina K. Designs!  Tonight, you’ll find lots of inspiration & samples featuring Nina Brackett’s newest “Nana’s Needlework & Sentiments” and Rupa Shevde’s “Spring Has Sprung”!   I’m going to share an adorable little duck from “Spring Has Sprung”. 

This is a an easy design for those of us who love our “toys” … er uhhhmmmmm “tools’.   Yeah, “tools”!   While it wasn’t my original intention to bring out so many toys tools, it was definitely quick enough to do so again soon.  Ducky’s umbrella is paper-pieced and the water is accented with a little glitz for sparkle.  The ribbon was folded & stitched to hold its own “waves”, and the rest a snap!  I hope you enjoy it! 

*Please accept my apology for getting this “live” a few minutes late.  Apparently I didn’t have everything set correctly to accommodate daylight savings time.  …. sigh ….
