Inspiration Hop Day 2!!


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!!

Beth's newest set Deck the Halls is a lot of fun to mix up the bulbs, ornaments and figuring out what colors you want to use!!  I wanted to step away a bit from traditional colors so I used Honey Mustard with the green, I like the combo!!  It kind of looks like gold!


Tami's new Simple Snowflake set is the perfect snowflake set!!!!  This border is fun and lots of possibilities!!  I love hearts so I went with that in the middle of the blank circle and again went with a different color combo.  Love the font for this sentiment!!

Becky has another fun set!!!  When I sat down to play with Mistletoe Memories I didn't really have a plan, the card evolved, love when that happens and especially so when I am ok with how it came out!!!  :) 

Check out all the amazing designs and inspiration:

    Lori--these are all great! I love that elegant ornamant! The warm thoughts card rocks---love the added color with the hearts stamped in centers and I love the repetitive text stamping in the background of the last!

    I really enjoy your style and the way you layer your cards. I agree with you that when you just let the card "happen" you can get some of your best cards. Thanks again for sharing.
