Make Your Holiday Shine with Foil-Mates™

Hello! Today the Gina K team are showcasing the fabulous new Gina K holiday release from Therm-o-web.

I love these wonderful new Foil-Mates™ and dies!

For my card, I used the Festive Labels Foil-Mates™ with the Radiant Red Fancy Foils™ and cut it out using the coordinating Decorative Labels die set.  On the background, I heat embossed the branch image from the Peaceful Holidays stamp set.

Here is a close up so you can see how pretty and sparkly the Radiant Red Foils are.

I also made a gift tag using the new Tag Tidings Foil-Mates™, along with the Radiant Red Foils again. I used the other new die set, Decorative Tag Dies, to cut out the layers. The holly leaves were stamped using an image from the Merry & Bright StampTV Kit.

Here is a close up of this one. Photos just can't justice to how pretty the foils are in person.

Enjoy the beautiful projects by the team and then comment on each blog for your chance to win a $25 Gina K Designs gift certificate! To see who won, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hop.

Peaceful Dove Video

Hello there! Here is a card I made with my latest set, Peaceful Holidays. I used Distress Oxide Inks for the background and Versafine Onyx Black for the dove and deer.

Here is a video to show you how I made it.

Gina K October Release Day 2

Hi there! It's day two of the new release blog hops for Gina K Designs. The team is featuring two new stamp sets today. The first is called Noelle Mouse, illustrated by Beth Silaika. The images in this set are so sweet!

I just love the little tree Beth drew, perfect for scene building. 

Here is the full image sheet.

Next up is another adorable stamp set, this one called Purrfect Christmas, by Chris Dayton. Yep, another tree. Yay! I had fun building snow banks by cutting white cardstock. That fantastic sentiment is from Melanie's Fabulous Holiday Labels set that was featured yesterday.

I used the tree again on this card, but added a sentiment from the new incentive set, Scripty Holiday. I also used the silhouette tree image from my set, Peaceful Holidays in the background. This time the snowbanks were sponged using Gina K Pigment White ink. 

Here is the complete image sheet for Purrfect Christmas.

You can find all the new stamp and die sets in the "What's New" category at the Gina K Designs online store.

Be sure to stop by all the blogs and comment on each one for more inspiration and for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate from Gina K Designs. Then stop by the Big News section at StampTV next week to see who won.

Gina K October Release Blog Hop

Hello everyone! It's release time at Gina K Designs again and the design team are back with a blog hop to inspire you. First up is my newest set, called Peaceful Holidays. I created a simple scene on this card, using images from the set.

Here is the video I made for the deer card.    

  

Next is an other card featuring images from Peaceful Holidays. This time I created a snowflake background and added the dove, carrying an olive branch. I'll have a video for this card next week.

Here is an image of the full Peaceful Holidays stamp set.

    

And here is a look at Melanie Muenchinger's new stamp set, Fabulous Holiday Labels.

  

This new set is so perfect for making gift tags! I made this blue tag using the label die that was released last month and it came together so fast. I'm really excited about this because I always need gift tags at Christmas time.

    

Here is another tag I made. I sponge a bit of Gina K White ink onto Kraft cardstock, then stamped the snowflakes. I again used the matching oval die to cut out the top layer, after stamping. Super fun and super fast!

You can find all the new stamp and die sets in the "What's New" category at the Gina K Designs online store. 

Be sure to stop by all the blogs and comment on each one for more inspiration and for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate from Gina K Designs. Then stop by the Big News section at StampTV next week to see who won.

The Wetlands 2 & Fabulous Rose Frame - A Gina K Blog Hop

Hello! Last week Gina K Designs released several new stamp sets and this week we are having blog hops to share some inspiration featuring the new stamp sets. Todays sets are The Wetlands 2, illustrated by myself, and Fabulous Rose Frame, illustrated by Melanie Muenchinger.

The Wetlands 2

Here is a video for the card above, using images from The Wetlands 2.

Here is another card featuring images from The Wetlands 2. I'll be sharing the video for this card in a few weeks.

And here is one more. I'll have a video coming soon for this one, too.

Fabulous Rose Frame

I love the big flowers in Melanie's Fabulous Rose Frame. So fun to color!

Here is a second card I made.

And I created a quick video for this card. I am trying out doing these quick videos, that have subtitles, rather than audio. I'll have more of these for tomorrow. I will still be doing regular videos with audio, but I am finding that I can put these subtitled videos together a lot quicker. So I'm going to try adding these in some of the time.

Gina K and My Sweet Petunia Blog Hop

Hello! The Gina K Team is partnering with the design team at My Sweet Petunia for a fabulous blog hop and fun giveaway. If you came from Rema DeLeeuw's blog, then you are in the right place.

As many of you may have noticed, I have been using the Misti Stamp Tool in most of my videos lately. I love this tool! I've always been fond of many of the techniques that require a stamp positioner, but I've never liked using one. Until the Misti. Now I don't mind at all, in fact I enjoy it.

In addition to featuring the Misti, on this blog hop, we are also featuring the latest StampTV Kit, Boho Flowers.

For my card, I used the Boho Flowers stamp set and the "You" die, along with a sneak peek of my new stamp set, coming this Thursday to Gina K Designs, called The Wetlands 2.

Here is a video to show you how I created the card, using Gina's fabulous stamps and the amazing Misti.

You can also see the video and many others on my Youtube channel here.

I am also excited there will be two lucky winners from the from people that comment on every blog post on this hop. One will win a Misti Original or Mini (winner's choice) and the other will win the new StampTV  Mini Kit, Stitched Leaves. The deadline for commenting is September 5th at noon central. Winners will be posted on the My Sweet Petunia blog winners page and on the Gina K. Blog no later than Friday, September 8.

Next on the hop after me is Iliana Myska. Be sure to visit and comment for a chance to win.

Gina K Blog Hop - Day 2

Hello! We are on our second day blog hopping for the latest release at Gina K Designs. Today we are featuring images from Beth's Karen Dolphin set and Claire's Lovely Lilies. My first card is with Beth's set. I love these sweet images! 

Here is another card I made using Karen Dolphin. 

And here is my first card with Claire's Lovely Lilies set. I love to color, so I used the outline image and colored in the middle to make it look like tiger lilies. 

On this card I colored them to look like stargazer lilies.
