Gina K Designs Inspirational Blog Hop Day 1


The Design Team for Gina K. Designs welcomes you to another fabulous Inspiration Blog Hop!!! Gina and the Design Team 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 few random comments and those stampers will each win a grab bag of deeply etched, pre-cut Gina K. Designs stamps! To see the full list of winners check the Big News forum at Stamp TV a couple of days after the hops!!

Today's featured sets are 
Beyond Baskets & Joyful Holiday
All of the stamps featured below can be found in the What's New category at Gina K Designs.


For my first card I cut the wagon image from Beyond Baskets with my electronic cutter and then stamped the image and  paper pieced the body. I then attached it with foam squares and stuffed punched hearts inside. The greeting is from this set and the speech bubble is die cut and stamped using You Say Goodbye, I say 'ello set. Pearls for the inside of the wheels.



My second card features the Joyous Holiday stamp set. For this card  also used my electronic cutter. I first cut the background of the poinsettia from green card stock and stamped it with Olive Pastel fluid chalk from Clearsnap. I then cut the shapes out in red and stamped the flower with the single flower image using dark red fluid chalk ink. Next, I used the main image to over-stamp it in green adding the veins. I then added a gem and attached it to a red frame from my Take Note set. Finally I stamped the greeting and added it all to the card base.
