Today we are finishing up our samples but remember comment, comment, comment for your chance to win the HUGE grab bag of stamps that Gina will be drawing for!  Christmas is near and we all can use a little FREE Christmas gift for ourselves, right??? :-)  Now... on with the hop!  First up....

Inspiration Blocks by Gina K Designs
I LOVE the inspirational words in this set and I have been thinking of my kids with every card I make using it.  Perfect little "reminder" for them and I'm the mom that is always leaving notes for them or even mailing them a card of encouragement so this set is right up my ally!!  AND.. this month this set is your "Free with Three" set!!  My card begins with Pure Luxury Wild Dandelion card stock.  I layered on a piece of Black Onxy which I first embossed using my Holly Ribbons Cuttlebug folder.  I know it's more for Christmas but I thought it looked good with my stamp image.  :-)  Next I added another layer of the Wild Dandelion which I heat embossed my images.  My sentiments are overlapping in red and I wasn't sure how it would turn out (afraid it would melt down into the black and nothing would show), but it still kept the fine line of the letters and I like that!  Next up....

Master Butterfly Duo by Gina K Designs
I love coloring big butterflies and this one was no exception!  I started off with some Pure Luxury Turquoise Sea card stock and did a partial embossing on the side using my Bird Call Cuttlebug folder.  I added a layer of Wild Dandelion and some DP to the left and stamped my sentiment at the top.  My butterfly was colored with Copic markers and cut out then mounted with the winds folded upward.  I used a bit of Frost Stickles on the butterfly as well.  Next up...

For my last card I used Pure Luxury Kraft card stock as my base.  I added a layer of Little Boy Blue and some DP next.  I stamped my image using Tim Holtz Distress Ink, Faded Jeans.  I distressed the edges a bit and added some more Tim Holtz Ink, Vintage Photo. 

I hope you have enjoyed these hops and there still more to see... hop on down the list and remember to leave comments on all the DT blogs for a chance to win.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!! *smile*

Wow! Your cards are outstanding! I love the colours you have chosen. The black and yellow is very striking, the blue and yellow is vibrant and beautiful and the final card made from the kraft and given the distressed look is also awesome and truly inspirational.
