A Virtual Party for Gina K!!!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GINA!!!  Today the Gina K Designs Design Team is hopping to our favorite person's birthday!!  We are throwing her a "Virtual Birthday Party"!!  Gina, you should have come here by way of Suzanne's blog.  Weren't those hors d'oeuvres awesome?!!

There aren't words enough to express the love, gratitude and pride we share in being a part of such a fabulous woman's team.  If you don't know Gina Krupsky, you are missing out on knowing one of the most respected and inspirational leaders in the stamping industry.  Gina, I hope your day is as fantastic and awesome as you!! *HUGS*

I am bringing your corsage today.  I went with white since I knew it would go with any lovely outfit Janice chose for you.  :-)  And because I definitely DO NOT want to take a chance and poke a pin into you... I chose a lovely wrist corsage.  I hope you like it.


My card today was created using Pure Luxury Heavy Base Weight  Turquoise Sea.  I layered it with a green DP, white and another layer of DP.  My ribbon is the gold lined white Pure Luxury.  I made a triple bow using my Bow Easy to make it a bit fuller.

My flowers are from Melanie Muenchinger's "Buds and Vases" stamp set.  I used my Copic markers to color the flowers in with a bit of color since they are white. I stamped the flowers several times and cut them out and mounted them with Pop Dots to add more layers on my corsage. I used my Oval Nestabilities to cut our the image and mounted it also with Pop Dots.  What luck!!! My mom came by this weekend and brought me a whole tub of silk flowers, greenery and embellishments that she use to use for flower arranging and didn't want anymore  My little beaded loops accent my corsage.  :-)

Please join us in wishing Gina a Happy Birthday by hopping with Gina's Design Team. How about someone taking home a party favor?  If you head on over to Gina's Blog and leave her some birthday love, we will draw for TWO lucky people to receive a FREE stamp set!

Gina, your next stop will be Theresa Momber's blog!  Enjoy the rest of you party and again... have a truly AWESOME day!!!!   *BIG HUGS*

Have a great day everyone and thanks for sharing Gina's special day with us!  *smile*

gorgeous corsage card.
Birthday wishes 4 Gina as well..............May your spirit keep the freedom
of a butterfly in spring,
and may your heart be filled always
