Designs stamps! To see the full list of winners check the Big News forum at Stamp TV a couple of days after the hops!!



Today the DT is showcasing a couple of the newest sets released by Gina K Designs last week!  These sets are packed with cute images that you can mix & match and create a ton of projects with!  This first card I did uses “Blooming With Blessings” and its filled with sweet lil’ animals ready for Spring—Rupa Shevde is the illustrator of these cuties.  My papers are new from MME Miss Caroline line.  Some fun buttons and lots of Crystal Lacquer on the water & sprinkled some DecoArt Glamour Dust on top so the glitter suspends in it—such a cool effect.



 The second card uses the set “Wild About You” and I love the African Safari theme of the stamps--Theresa Momber is the fab illustrator of this set!.  I usually march right towards anything zebra (zeebies) cuz I love them but decided to use the giraffe images and tree instead to be different LOL.  The larger giraffe was stamped on cream cs and then colored with Copics. I wanted a lot of texture on this so I added some distressed burlap, buttons, distressed paper edges and twine.  I used some BoBunny safari papers and didn’t use a sentiment so this card could be for many things or people!

Ok now you need to hop along to the below designers to get more inspiration and also leave comments for a chance to win some Grab Bag Stamps!!  Have fun!
