Gina K. Designs: Here Comes The Sun Design Team Hop



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 ONE winner and the prize is a Grab Bag of fabulous Vintage Cuts and Shapes that match the Here Comes The Sun STV Kit plus some other
embellishments and goodies that match the kit!!!! To see the winner, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hop.
 
There are an endless supply of ideas for creating with this kit!  I created a few more samples to share with you for today!
I have used this color combination before (sweet corn, ocean mist & wild lilac).  I had coordinating bakers twine in the lilac and ocean mist, but had to custom create the bakers twine in the sweet corn (see this post for the technique)






I saw the sun sentiment in the kit and decided to use the Sun from Weather or Not to create a clean and simple birthday card! Think about what stamps you have in your collection that would pair nicely with new sets and it makes your current collection even more valuable!  Dust off those old sets!!!

 


The new patterned paper is delightful and works with with the nautical themed cards! Wouldn't this be cute with pink and red stripes for Valentines day?


I made this card for the musical director at the elementary school. He puts so much time & effort into his job and the kids wanted to thank him with a card and a gift certificate to a local restaurant. I put one little sparkle gem inside the middle circle to give it a hint of bling.



Nautical themed cards are fabulous for so many themed events! Baby showers, weddings...They are also great masculine cards.  Here two simple strips of navy paper looks so crisp against the kraft background.  A hint of red pops too! Isn't this a great Father's day card?


Thank you for hopping by and checking out the cards which I created! Now hop on over to see what everyone else has in store:
