Gina K Designs DT Blog Hop Day 1

Welcome to the October blog hop for Gina K Designs!  I am sure you are enjoying this fun hop.  Today we are featuring Basket Additions, illustrated by Melanie Muenchinger.Holiday Basket.  This is a great addition to Mel's Holiday Basket.  Here is my sample:
I adore the way this basket can be any color and it still works awesome! Just a little Christmas card this month.

Our second featured set today is Strength & Hope,  illustrated by Theresa Momber.  Theresa will be donating this month's proceeds from this stamp set to a cancer research!  You Go Theresa!!  Here is my sample for this fabulous set.  [I have been so inspired by all the tags out there in blogland, I got on the band wagon too~]

Here are a couple of close ups:


Here is my Release Party Sample:


Thanks for stopping by!  Pop on over and check out the rest of the team~
 We will have 2 more days of hopping next Monday and Tuesday!  See you then~

Crafty Math Chick said...

These are terrific Vicki! Something about the embossing on your holiday basket card is so striking (probably because red is my favorite color), the cork behind your butterfly tags is a VERY cool effect and I REALLY like the layout of your CAS pink & red hope card - hope you don't mind if I CASE that! ;)
