Gina K Designs November Release Inspiration DT Hop, Day 2!!

Hey y'all!! Welcome back!


The Design Team for Gina K. Designs welcomes you to another fabulous Inspiration Blog Hop! Gina and the Design Team will inspire you with many beautiful ideas! And as you hop through their blogs, make sure to leave a comment on each of them because we will choose a few random comments and those stampers will each win a grab bag of Gina K. Designs products! To see the full list of winners check the Big News forum at Stamp TV a few days after the hops.

Once again, we have 2 sets to showcase for you! Up first is Theresa Momber's new set called Elegant Florals..once again Theresa has done it, with her beautiful and so realistic drawings of florals! Here is what I have done for today:


I used that gorgeous Calla Lily in the set and made an elegant birthday card...those decorative rectangles look so lacy and dainty to me, and also give it an elegant touch, IMO! :D I used copic markers to color the flower and then some SU! inks for the sponging on the edges.

Up next is Beth Silaika's newest set called Sentimental Holiday...I absolutely LOVE the sentiments in this set...you can have them for outside or inside of the card too! Here is what I have done for today:


I stamped the trees with versamark then embossed them in silver and gold. I also stamped the star and embossed it to...added a few silver and gold gems and made the 'snowy' hills! Such a fun card to make too!

Ok, ready for more awesome eye candy? Just follow the links below of my fellow DT!


Thanks so much for all of the wonderful comments you all left for me yesterday, truly makes my day! We have one more day to showcase the new sets for you, so be sure and come on back!

  16. What a wonderful job you did designing and making these two cards. I love the decorative rectangle one and would love to know how to make the base card for it. The back side looks also like it is die cut. Did you just fold the back after cutting out 2 pieces and glue the tops together? Would love to hear!
