Welcome to day one of the Gina K Inspiration Blog Hop!
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 deeply etched, pre-cut Gina K. Designs stamps! To see the full list of winners check the Big News forum at Stamp TV a couple of days after the hops!!
For my first card today, I am using Melanie's New set Wild Flowers. I have been revisiting a version of the rock and roll technique lately, and my ColorBox pigment inks are perfect for that with this set. I embossed the card with a Long Classic Rectangles LG first, then I inked the whole flower top with Daffodil, and then inked around the edges with Banana Cream. I also stamped the middle dots with Banana Cream as well. I finished it off with some bling and the sentiment stamped in black.
My second card uses Tami's new set Masculine Tags. The main image works perfectly with the Labels Twenty-Two from Spellbinders™. I started out thinking I was going to make a Fathers Day card, but decided on a masculine Thank You instead. (I can always use Thank You's!) I stamped the stars randomly down the card front and finished them off with some blue baby bling in the centers.
