Gina K Designs Inspiration Blog Hop for August, 2015 Release!

Hey y'all!!  Welcome to my humble little blog!  :D

   

StampTV kit – Autumn Wishes

Individual set names – Autumn Wishes, Friends to the End

The Cast and Crew for Gina K Designs welcomes you to another fabulous Inspiration Blog Hop! This blog hop is for the brand spanking new StampTV Kit, Autumn Wishes.  Did you know we have a special group that you can join if you are a member of StampTV?  It’s called StampTV Kit Addicts!  Tricia Traxler shares all kinds of good advice and inspiration in there too!

Today, Gina, along with the Cast and Crew, 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  random comment and that stamper will win a grab bag of Gina K. Designs products! To see who won, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hop.

Here are a few things I have made with kit:

I just LOVE the little bees in this kit!  :D

This being our Autumn kit as we are calling it, you expected a Fall time one, right?  Well, Im thinking my mojo wanted some Spring time in this one.  The DP papers are actually tissue paper that you put in gift bags!  I glued onto the cardstock base.  I love the colors black, yellow and gray together!  Super easy and fun card to make!  And I also used the little bees ...again..!  This time buzzing in to say H E L L O!!

I tried this card several different ways before I finally called it DONE.  omg this card took me forever to complete.  I toned down the yellow on the bottom area with putting some dotted vellum over it and I think, although I do love yellow, it was a bit too much!  LOL!   Ok,  on to my fellow DT!!

It’s not too late to make your project or special cards because students and teachers will be back in the classroom soon, but also need encouragement all semester long! If you do not have these sets in your Gina K Designs stamp collection, visit the Gina K Designs store at  Gina's Store

Here is the projects that I made for today’s hop:

I did not use Beth's Keep Calm set, but her Stippled Nature set:

Stippled Nature set.

For Today, Ive made a bunch of goodies!  I made a little deskstop gift set for a teacher.  I do so understand how crazy the first days are so to me, giving them a gift on the first day, telling them THANK YOU for everything you will be doing in this upcoming year! I used Melanie's Just So Sporty stamp set too, and only realize tonight it was retired!  I apologize for that!  I do so love how the sets work together so well though!  

 And here is a little gift box, made in the shape of a backpack with matching gift card and enevelope:
