Gina K Blog Hop Day 1


Hello! Gina K has just released more wonderful stamp sets, all themed for Christmas, and today the team is sharing their designs to inspire you. This was a super fun release since I got to spend it in Milwaukee at the Christmas in the Village event at Gina's brick and mortar store, Village Paper and Ink. I met so many wonderful people and had an amazing time. What talented people we had attending! I could go on and on, but I better get to my card. 

The first card I made today features the new StampTV kit, Home for the Holidays. I love this new kit! These gorgeous trees are perfect for Christmas cards, but will be fun to use all year.


The second card I made today is from a set called Tis the Sea-sun. I love this set! It's perfect for people that live in a tropical location or are traveling over the holidays. 

Enjoy the gorgeous inspiration samples from the team and then comment on each blog for your chance to win a $20 Gina K Designs gift certificate! To see who won, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hop.
