Gina K. Designs October Release Inspiration Hop (Day 1)


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.

Here are the super cute stamps that come with the kit! I {love} the awesome sentiments! And there are SO many images to choose from! 

 This nested snowflake is awesome - it's like a 3 in one stamp!



Here are the cards I made with the kit:
This first card was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest, where they used the bakers twine to hold up a stocking. I thought it was a great use for the bakers twine, so I tried something similar with this elegant ornament.  I love the details of the ornament.  I am a sucker for snowflakes! The Gina. K cranberry ink is very rich and pairs nicely with the ivory card stock.
inspired by an Amy Wanford card I saw on pinterest

This second card allowed me to try out the new Gina K. white ink. It is so thick and fabulous and just clings to the card stock like a monkey to a banana tree! The sentiments in this set are so beautiful! I love the elegant script!
Love the white ink by Gina K. - it's fab!
I am a paper hoarder. I have a hard time using the designer paper because I keep thinking - what if I need it later.  Don't put off to tomorrow people! Cut that paper!  This card could easily be mass produced and you can get several banners out of one piece of Gina K. paper.  It is so easy to match up the papers with the fabulous new ink colors.

I hope you enjoyed these samples! Now you must go check out all the amazing designs and inspiration with my fellow design team members:

    Your cards are beautiful. Now I have to get that white ink. I have been searching for a good white ink and not been able to find one. Also, I too have problems using the pattern paper. Sometimes I wonder what I am saving it for. Maybe using little bits at a time will help me. Thanks,
    Julie
