Welcome to the first of Gina K Designs’ December stamp set release inspiration blog hops! We hope you enjoyed the Release Party last night -- Remember, all of the new December release stamp sets are now available in Gina’s store!
Our first stamp set being featured today is Stately Flowers 2 by Melanie Muenchinger -- another fabulous floral addition to her series!
I embellished a scrap page of my youngest daughter with the Camellia from this set:

Flower was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Copic’s X-Press It Blending Card and colored with these Copic markers and Lemon Atyou Spica Glitter Pen (on flower center):
I used a combination of pink/peach Gina K Designs Heavy Base Weight Cardstock to accent the Camellia and daughter’s shirt -- Bubblegum Pink, Innocent Pink & Just Peachy.
The circle strip on the left was created with Spellbinders Edgeabilities dies (see supplies below).
The "my heart belongs to you" tag on the lower right was made with one of the fabulous sentiments from this set … just perfect for my sweetheart! ;-)
Our next featured set today is Mountain Wilderness by Theresa Momber -- what a great masculine set, and I love the vertical sentiments!
I tried going a little more on the feminine side with my 5.50” round Get Well card:
I used Adirondack Juniper dye ink on the pretty berry/bush stamp and then used Rhubarb Stalk Memento Marker to selectively color the berries directly on the stamp before stamping (the Juniper ink is actually darker in person and matches the aqua paper on the lower part of the card!).
Then the sentiment was added with black Memento ink.
These Gina K design team members also have samples to share today. Make sure you leave a comment on each of the blogs because Gina will choose two random winners from all of the comments who will each receive a grab bag of free stamps (at least 12 stamp sets in each bag)! The more blogs you comment on, the more chances you have to win . . . good luck!
