Gina K Designs December Release Day 1

Hi and welcome to Day 1 of Gina K Designs December Release Blog Hop.  If you made the party last night, you know you are in for a treat with the cards made for your inspiration by the Design Team.  Once again, the illustrators have gone above and beyond with these fabulous sets.  Today we are featuring Mountain Wilderness, illustrated by Theresa Momber.


and this is my card from last night's party~

I just adore Theresa's nature images. Check it out - almost all of Theresa's sets interact with each other, or make just beautiful scene cards all by themselves!

Our second feature today is Stately Flowers 2, illustrated by Melanie Muenchinger.



Are those flowers gorgeous or what!! So fun to color (and I really don't care for coloring, but Mel makes it easy with her beautiful images)

That's it for me today. Be sure and come by on Monday and see more samples made with more new stamps sets~
Thanks for stopping by~
Here are the Designers that are participating in today's hop:
