Gina K. Designs Blog Hop: Up, Up & Away and Lots Of Dots Alphabet





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 StampTV a few days after the hops.


Today I am featuring Theresa's Up, Up & Away set, along with my Alphabet set!

 First up, a graduation card which I made with our school colors! Super easy! You can customize your card with school colors and embellish with ribbons and layers! The possibilities are endless!


 
 YOLO!  Great card to stuff a $20 and give to a college student heading off for their first year of classes! Put a note inside saying "For emergencies....don't do anything I wouldn't do!"




 Valentines could be super easy with the alphabet set.  It's easy to mass produce these CAS one layer cards!

 Teen Text-speak is the norm now -- so creating a fun birthday card for the teen in your life is super easy with the Lots of Dots alphabet set.  Embellish with a button and this monochrome look is super clean and fun!  I used lots of dots circles on the background!


 

Theresa's set has some great sentiments in it which are great (and interchangeable) for birthday's, graduation, etc... 
This card uses some Gina K. designer paper along with a fun layout to focus on the sentiment!
 The delicate image from Theresa's set (along with a sentiment from her previous set) made for a super easy "thinking of you" card!  I also added the & from the Lots of dots alphabet to give it a touch of whimsey!
I am getting to that stage in life where I am attending more graduations than weddings -- my kids friends are growing up fast too! I used the school colors along with the sentiment from Theresa's set (and the numbers from Tami's set) to create this grad card.

    I love the clean look on your cards. I end up 'fussy' so it is nice to see that the complete opposite works so well.

    I really love that grassy stamp that you used (second to last one). Sometimes when I look at that stamp its hard to figure out what other stamps it can go with. I love how you just created a base for the card with the one stamp. It doesnt look like a single grass stamped over and over again- simply looks like grassy plants. Thanks for the inspiration!
