Inspirational Blog Hop: Day 3 & announcement

For some CRAZY reason, I could not upload this to blogger to announce Anita joining my FabFour Design team. It was taking FOREVER and A DAY. Well, today is a new day...and it finally works!
Please welcome Anita Recksiedler to the Fabulous Four!
 Yesterday she posted a beautiful card with the Deck The Halls set on her blog!
Thank you Anita for joining my personal design team! YAY!





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 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!!


The first set I am playing with today is City Of David (part of the Stamp TV kit). I LOVE this set! LOVE IT!  Here is my favorite card. I love the designer paper from the Merry Little Christmas pack. 


 Same stamp set (City of David) with some of those adorable images. I love the sentiment. I used copics to create the dawn scene....I imagine them walking across the cold desert....


 Oh my gosh, this Holiday Tags set is so SUPER cute. I love this little penguin. I was attempting (for about 10 minutes) to take pictures of my cards. I must have a half dozen of the card flipping over...Thank you Sandy! This was the best I could do. I put the penguin on some stickle/ice...I love him!

 Finally, a clean and simple card with the Merry Little Christmas set ALSO in the Stamp TV kit! TWO SETS? Wahooo! This one was so super simple. I stamped the holly berry twice - once directly on the card and once on a scrap piece and layered it on top. Super simple and clean, and I love the sentiment in chocolate brown! 

 Are you ready to see what the other ladies have in store for y'all?
