Gina K Design August Release Inspiration Blog Hop! Day 1!!

Howdy Ya'll and welcome to our first day of inspiration blog hops for you this week! The party was a blast last night, did you get to be there?? And get to see all of the full stamp reveals? Do some shopping? THAT is the main thing, that you can buy all of these stamps NOW at Gina K Designs!!

For today, we have the new StampTV kit!



It's called Falling For You...you will LOVE the stamps in this set..not to mention all of the other goodies that come with it! Gina did a full reveal of that also on StampTV!! Here is my card for today:



I saw several tent cards in my google reader and I believe its Crazy 4 Challenges blog is the one having this type of card for a challenge this week! This is my first attempt at one and I have to say, LOVE how it turned out! It does fold flat, so would not be a big problem mailing this one either. I did some paper piecing for my trees..quick and easy! Made a frame with one of the Spellbinder's label dies and those are about the most complicated things about this card really, lol! I will be making more of these!

Ready for more awesome inspiration?? I cant wait to see too what my fellow DT have come up with!! Here are the links and don't forget to leave comments on all the blogs for your chance to win a free stamp set from Gina K!!
