Gina K Designs January 2016 Inspiration Blog Hop, Made With Love!




Hey y'all!  Glad to see you here today!  :D


The Cast and Crew for Gina K Designs welcomes you to another fabulous Inspiration Blog Hop! This blog hop is for our January Release!  We hope to inspire you with some beautiful card projects as you hop along in the hop this month!  Enjoy the gorgeous inspiration samples from the team and then comment on each blog for your chance to win an awesome grab bag of GKD goodies!!!  To see who won, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hop.




I truly think this is my most favorite of all of the kits!  Totally flooded with ideas in my old brain!  I have like 5 halfway finished cards done...because I know if I dont start, right when I get the thought, ill forget it, haha!  Ok, so...I always ask Billy (hubby) to pick his favorite and this is the one he picked:

AND I admit, its my favorite one Ive done for this release too!  :D  It has a clear overlay on it, that the tree and sentiment is stamped on.  I do have plans to show How I made the 'fence' on this too.  The moon is made by making a circle die cut, then taking a marker (I used Copics W1 and W2) and just scribble on different areas.  Then I took the Spectrum clear glitter marker and swished it all over.  It looks sooo cool IRL!

Here is another super quick one I have made:
I CAS card ...I also used the Spectrum Glitter markers on this one and then fussy cut it.  I did the dry embossing and then just put the flower in middle of it, ta-da!  I gave this to Billy on our anniversary the other day.  (our 33rd :D)



OK!  Ready for more eye candy?!  Just follow the links below!!

    That cat card is so darn adorable! Makes me think of one of the Disney movies from long ago - Lady and the Tramp, maybe? The CAS love card is so pretty. I like the bit of sparkle on the flower.

    I love the cat card also...the shooting star is cool. I like the moon and clear overlay technique. The sheer ribbons are so pretty and not to hide the way you used the stamps from the kit. Great job. Happy Anniversary!

    Cat, the night scene with the two cats, was my favorite of the launch party, and it still is. I will watch for your blogpost on how to do the fence. I can't imagine a cuter or more sweet card than this. Thanks for sharing your inspiration!
