Inspiration 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 products! To see the full list of winners check the Big News forum at Stamp TV a couple of days after the hops!!


Melanie knocked it out of the park again with this gorgeous Stately Flowers 5 set!!   I've never seen these flowers before so I did a little research.  Most of the images that came up were purple so I had to follow suit, it is one of my favorite colors!!!  :) 

I needed a card for a co-worker that decided to take another job.  It was hard to make this card for her, 4 of us are pretty close in our little corner, but I am happy for her!!  I thought the branch image from Theresa's set Vogue Vases 2 was perfect, it kind of looks like it is waving goodbye to me!

Check out all the amazing designs and inspiration:
