GKD January Release Inspiration Blog Hop Day 1

 Welcome to Day 1 of the Gina K. Designs newest Release Inspiration Hop!  We are excited to share with you
 two new stamp sets that were released last night.  First up is Stately Flowers 3 designed by Melanie Muenchinger.
 I stamped the flower image with Versamark embossing with Clear Embossing powder.  Then I sponged it with Memento Rose Bud ink which made the flowers just POP!

 And next I have a card to share using Mehndi Wishes:
Absolutely beautiful images and I kept this one to Kraft/Red  creating patterned paper with one of the stamp images.  I used Stephanie Barnard Strawberry ink and ColorBox Chalk ink in Creamy Brown. I am entering this into the "Pinteresting" Challenge over on Clearsnap as I was inspired by the red/kraft light fixture.

For even more samples of these new sets, please visit each of the GKD Design Team blogs listed below and leave a comment. The more blogs you comment on, the more chances you have of winning!  Gina will announce on her blog the randomly chosen winners who will each win a fun Grab Bag of stamps from Gina K. Designs.
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day! 
Blessings,
