{Gina K Designs Inspiration Blog Hop} Sparkling Christmas Stamp TV Kit



The Cast and Crew of Gina K Designs welcomes you to another fabulous Inspiration Blog Hop to celebrate the brand new Stamp TV Kit - Sparkling Christmas! Gina and the Cast and Crew will inspire you with many fun projects!


 As you hop through the blogs of Gina and the Cast & Crew, make sure to leave a comment on each of them because we will choose a random commenter to win a grab bag of Gina K Designs products!  To see if you won, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hops.

My first card today features the fun, whimsical reindeer.  Such a quick and easy card using some of the Sparkling Christmas patterned paper and a few dies.  To dress up my reindeer a little more, I colored his scarf and boots and added a red nose and a golden bow.  The sentiment was stamped on a strip of black cardstock with Versamark ink and then embossed with white embossing powder.


My second card is simple as well.  This time I embossed a piece of Prickly Pear cardstock with a snowflake embossing folder to use as the background behind my main image.  I masked the snowman and stamped some pine trees behind him, then added a gold bow at the top to make it look like an ornament or a gift tag.


Well, that's it for today!  I'll give you the list of my fellow designers again, in case you're just getting started... otherwise, you can jump right over to the shop to pick up your kits and any other stamps and supplies you saw on today's hop.   And don't forget to visit me on Friday in the Stamp TV Addicts Group for another edition of Friday Funday!  
See you then!!




Thanks for stopping by!

I am so happy to see the little snowman, I think it actually is the first! Your reindeer is fab too! I love the design of him with his gracious antlers and snow booties, the red nose finished him off wonderfully!

The snowman is so cute.

Denise Bryant said...

Delightful cards! Love the deer and the snowman!

Unknown said...

Your reindeer is cute, just like those made by everybody else. However we do not "play Santa Claus" at our house so I will probably never use him, but he is cute just the same. I do really like your snowman Ornament / Tag. He is very usable, with and without the card -- which is also cute.
