Gina K Designs Ocotober Release Inspiration Blog Hop, Day 2!!

Hey y'all!  Welcome!

The Cast and Crew for Gina K Designs welcomes you to another fabulous blog hop celebrating the new Home for the Holidays StampTV Kit and a number of gorgeous stamp sets by our illustrator team! We hope to inspire you with some beautiful card projects as you hop along to each of the designer’s blogs!

Today, we are featuring Melanie Muenchinger’s new “Holiday Frame” stamp set and Theresa Momber’s new “Dashing” stamp sets. Both Melanie and Theresa have hand-drawn these beautiful images that will allow you to make a card that is personalized with images that you will not find anywhere else!  

Enjoy the gorgeous inspiration samples from the team and then comment on each blog for your chance to win a $20 Gina K Designs gift certificate! To see who won, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hop.




Up first today from is  this super fun set by Melanie!  Here is one card I made with this set:

I created a fun little scene like a snow globe!  This set I know just SCREAMS for you to do a snowglobe, lol!  BUT, that's not all you can do with this set, you will see on my fellow DT blogs too!

Next up is Theresa's Dashing set:
And here is one I have made with this set:
 

I love to throw in a color that is not the traditional  red/green/gold colors for Christmas.  And pink is a favorite of mine to use for that!  I heat embossed the poinsettias in white and then colored with copics and then added some sparkle using a Spectrum Noir sparkle marker.  The snowflakes and distressed frame around the main image also has some heat embossing in white too. 

That's all from me for today!  But just follow the links below for some awesome eye candy from my fellow DT!!
