Some fun and fabulous new Gina K. Designs stamp sets were released last night...........I sure hope you're enjoying all the awesome eye candy and inspiration on this hop!!
First up is Melanie's new set, Basket Additions that coordinates with Holiday Basket........
I wanted to make a little basket to fill with some crafty goodies for a friend.....and since I had no template I just used my Spellbinders Grand Calibur and Grand Oval and Scallop Oval Nesties to make the basket and matching card. I just used some cardstock strips to connect the ovals to make the simple 2-sided basket. I used Pure Luxury in White and Bubblegum Pink and Basic Grey Indie Bloom dp. I couldn't resist studding the scallops with pearls cuz I love my bling!!! LOL

Next up is the special set designed by Theresa called Strength And Hope............
Theresa will be donating all her proceeds from Strength and Hope, for the first month of sales, to cancer research.
I really love this elegant butterfly!! And I have so much fun making shrinky dink earrings!! So just a simple card design in black and pink matches the black and pink earrings. I used Echo Park Holly Jolly Christmas dp....I do so love my dp!!! I used the matching Houndstooth Cuttlebug Folder to emboss the white.
You'll want to check out what the rest of the Design Team has for some wonderful inspiration......make sure you leave comments along the way as Gina will be choosing random winners from among the comments to win a stamp set of their choice (value at 24.95 or less).
