Gina K. Designs Inspiration Blog Hop: Day 3



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.

 here are my creations:

I thought that the designer paper looked like ice scratches on a pond - so I cut out some of the paper and stamped the fox & colored with the my noir markers.
This grey base really makes the red pop! The sentiment cluster was stamped in black with some Gina K. sheer black ribbon under the oval.

 This was my favorite card. I normally layer the designer paper and line it up even steven, right smack dab in the middle. Today I offset it and I think it looks pretty good! I love the hint of red matting and the pop of red with the sentiment.

Here is what the designer paper looks like this month!

What Annie said, great idea!

Karen Hightower said...

Wonderful cards Beth. I love all three. It was a clever idea with the fox & using the pp for the ice skatings area! I agree the red on the gray does pop wonderfully, and I love the off set pp on the third one as well. :)

Gabi said...

I love your cards! And it so happens that your favorite is mine as well! Love the off-centered layer.

Beth - your cards are so cute - but the fox looking so serene in his pose and skating on ice that is already cut with other skate blades - really neat idea and serene - loved that card.
