Make Your Holiday Shine with Foil-Mates™

Hi Everyone,

Today, the design team has a fun, shiny blog hop for you featuring the Holiday Foil-Mates™ line of products by Gina K. Designs for ThermOWeb™!

As you hop through the blogs, make sure you leave a comment on each one because we will be giving away a $25.00 gift certificate and the winner will be posted in the Big News Forum a few days after the hop.

Here are a few of the items I have been mass-producing with the new Holiday-Foil-Mates™ . There are so many fun patterns and sentiments in this line so you can mix and match the sparkling glitter foil colors with different patterns and sentiments to get all kinds of different looks!




I've also been cutting and foiling tons of tags and shapes to attach to holiday gifts, home-baked items and bottles of wine for the holiday gift-giving season! 


Having them all cut and ready to foil really cuts down on the work when you need a fast tag or quick foiled focal image for a holiday card. And if you are short on time, you can mass produce cards in no time!

You can get the your own Holiday Foil-Mates™ and more by clicking here for in online store- Foil-Mates™ 

Ready to see what the design team has waiting for you? Start hopping here:

Gina K.- You are here!

Enjoy today's inspiration and Happy Foiling!
Hugs,
Gina K.

Simon Says Stamp- STAMPtember with Gina K. Designs!

Hi Everyone!

Pinch me! I mean it, pinch me! I can't believe it's finally here! 

Today is the day that I get to share my collaboration set that I designed for Simon Says Stamp's STAMPtember event!




First, I have to tell you how honored I am to have been included in this amazing event! 

When I met Heidi, the owner of Simon Says Stamp, I was starstruck. We were at a retreat together and she was SO sweet and kind and welcoming. I am sure I was stuttering and slobbering all over her. But we sat together and had our morning coffee and we talked. I couldn't believe she wanted to carry my line! I'm pretty protective about where my line is sold and Simon Says Stamp is EXACTLY the kind of place I am honored to have it! So thank you Heidi! You're such a blessing in my life! I am thrilled that you are carrying my line and I am beyond excited to share this set!

Introducing Warmer with You!

This set has a set of coordinating dies that you can purchase as well! And wait until you see what our Design Team and some of the amazing Designer friends of Simon Says Stamp have created with this new set!

I really went to town with the set. I couldn't put it down! It's so fun for cards but equally fun for cute little tags! Here is a photo of some of my projects!



I had to do a family card! The little snow-people can be boys or girls so you can color them anyway you want and add two, three, six... this set works for any size family!

Head right over to Simon Says Stamp because the stamp sets and die sets are limited and ONLY available at Simon Says Stamp. Once they're gone, they're gone! 

Click here to get yours: www.simonsaysstamp.com

I made a video for you featuring this card and one of the tags. It's a little long because I packed so much into it but I sure hope you'll stick with me! 

You can watch the video on YouTube HERE 
or right here on my blog:

I made this card using the new Fabulous Rose Frame stamp set and the new Stitched Leaves Mini Kit, all available in the What's New Category at Gina K. Designs HERE.




I colored the flowers with Prismacolor Pencils and used a little Gamsol to blend. 
To see how I use Gamsol, you can watch this video on my YouTube Channel HERE or right here on my blog: 

And here is another one on YOUTUBE, or here:



Kathy from The Daily Marker is the creator of  “The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge”.The Challenge is a great way to gain confidence with your coloring and join in a community of positivity and coloring enthusiasts. The challenge is also a great way to get full use of your stamps and coloring mediums.

THE GOAL IS:  To color something daily even if it's a few minutes but, certainly not required.
