Gina K Designs - Inspiration Blog Hop - Day 3!!


Hey Y'all! Thanks for stopping by!



The Cast and Crew for Gina K Designs welcomes you to another fabulous blog hop celebrating the new stamp sets by Gina K and the illustrator team from Gina K Designs! 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 the My Anchor Mini Kit.

This stamp set is so fun and versatile! You will be able to create amazing card projects...especially for
the male figures in your life!  Which as stampers, we all know can be challenging, right?



And look at what all else comes in this mini kit:

Cardstock, ink pads and papers AND glue OH MY!  this is such an awesome bargain!

Ok, I got hit with some late night inspiration last night and came back and changed my blog post because I liked these cards better, LOL!  Here is my first one for you:

For this card, I have a piece of blue jeans as part of the card.  And the part that the sentiment is stamped...I took of piece of that brown wrapping paper that comes in lots of packages and stamped the anchor image all over a section of it and stamped it with versamark, then heat embossed it.  I will use it like this..cut in strips.  Im being frugal...yes?  :D   Ok , got one more card to share today with you:


I was trying to create a rocky point that the light house is sitting on...can you tell that?  LOL!  I heat embossed this in silver , the 'water' was created with colored vellum, I tore the edges to give white cap appearance, and the ray of the light was created with glitter paste...of all glitter things...I LOVE this glitter paste!  It is gorgeous and doesnt get all over the place!  (I might make Gina pass out saying I love anything glitter!  haha!)


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.

Beautiful cards. I like how you've created the scene with the lighthouse.

I like both! Love the denim on your card along with shipping paper. I like frugal, but never think to use these kinds of things on cards. Your rocky area with the lighthouse looks awesome! I love it.
