May 2016 Inspiration Blog Hop- Day 1

The Cast and Crew for Gina K Designs welcomes you to another fabulous blog hop celebrating the new stamp sets from the May StampTV Release Party! We hope to inspire you with some beautiful card projects as you hop along to each of the designer’s blogs! Today, we are featuring two stamp sets by Therea Momber and Melanie Muenchinger.


The first set we are featuring is Country Roads 2 by Theresa Momber. Theresa has created a second set to her popular Country Roads collection. Whether you are a country lover or an animal lover, you will be making creative and fun projects with this wonderful set. The second set we are featuring is Fill It with Flowers by Melanie Muenchinger. Melanie is at it again! She has created another wonderful set that is incredibly versatile and fun where the possibilities are endless for making beautiful cards for any occasion.


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.

I decided to showcase the new Tiny Textures Incentive stamp set along with these two new beautiful sets in my release party presentation video. I love coloring detailed images so much, but sometimes I just need a FAST card! So by mixing the beautiful background patterns from Tiny Textures along with Fill it with Flowers, I was able to achieve a colorful and elegant card in no time flat!


When it comes to scene making images like the ones in Country Roads 2, by using the Tiny Textures to create a gradient background, I was able to achieve and clean and simple scene in minutes that has the appearance of a vibrant sunset.

And later this week, Theresa and Melanie will be sharing videos featuring their new sets so make sure you stop by StampTV on Wednesday and Thursday!


Tomorrow, we have another new release blog hop so I hope you'll stop back for more!
Hugs,
Gina K.
