Gina K. Designs April Inspiration Blog Hop: Out West 2 and Flowers Bloom



The Cast and Crew for Gina K Designs welcomes you to another fabulous Inspiration Blog Hop! Gina, along with the Cast and Crew and Guest Designers, 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 Gina K. Designs products! To see the full list of winners check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hops.




This super simple card features the horse images from Theresa's Out West 2 set.  I used the dotted image from Melanie's set between the image and sentiment. 

 

 This next card was fun to make for my dad for his birthday last week.  It reminds me of the Sedona area of Arizona!  I used copics to create the main image and stamped the cacti in dark chocolate. 


Rupa's set features some great vases and floral bunch images, which can be used as backgrounds (like I did here with the leaf image and versamark on kraft). I paired it with a sentiment from Fabulous Fleur de lis (because, honestly, I didn't leave enough room for the sentiments from her set).  Sometimes you have to change things up!






I love the red, white and kraft combo with this card!







 Check out all the amazing designs and inspiration with these sets:

I like the first card with just the sentiment and the two horses running. The cactus one is beautiful too. The plant/vase is great. Love the background with the leaves. The kraft and red turned out beautifully too.
