Up today, we have two sets illustrated by Gina K. These sets she used in the Bella Craft Event that she taught a few classes at. First one is from the Wild Blossoms set:

For this card, I stamped and heat embossed the red image to make it pop more. LOVE this solid stamp! So fun to be able to stamp onto DP with!

Next up is from the set, You've Got A Friend In Me:

I made a CAS card for this set. Those trees look good colored, or even paper piecing...I dotted mine with copic markers to give it a fall look. :D

Gina K Designs September Release Inspiration Blog Hop! Day 2

Hi Y'all! Glad you are stopping by! :D

First up today is Beth Silaika's newest set, This and That. Here is what I have for today:

I just stamped a few of the words and then just cut them out. This goes to a very special friend of mine...one of those that it doesnt matter how long its been since you have seen each other, you can pick up right where you left off when you do see them! :D I feel so blessed to have a friend like that and so gonna tell her! :D and the words in this set worked for this! Here is the card I showed at the release party :

I was going for a collage/subway art type of thing, lol! Dont know if I succeeded with that, but I like how it turned out! :D

Up next is a set from Gina K that she used in her classes at that Bella Craft event way up north up there, (I forgot where! haha!) Here is my card for today with this set:

For this card I used some tissue paper for my DP. I also heat embossed the stamping. I like the images to really pop with color sometimes and this is a good way to do that. If you use black embossing powder it really does make it look black black! I also made the yellow flower there...not sure about leaving it on there but its there for now! :D

Ok, ready for some awesome eye candy? Here ya go!
