2nd Blog Anniversary Giveaways Week 2
Before I announce the winners from last week's giveaway, here's a card that I made just because. Don't you just love doing that? I used my GinaK Hugs and Prayers (poppies), Christ is Risen (main verse) sets and Layers of Color's The Love Chapter (script text background). I also used the brand new Spellbinders Labels 18. I did the emboss resist technique on this card. It was inspired by two challenges:
- Etsy-Inspired - the photo inspiration is here.
- Stampin' Sisters in Christ - my treasure is God's Word (the background text is I Cor 13 and of course, the main text), but in card-speak that would be the bling which I hoard like crazy. LOL!
And now the winners from last week's prizes. The commenter winner is:VALERIE
The winner of the subscribers/followers only giveaway is:
#39 LEANNE
Please email me (via tab above) to claim your prizes. Thank you for joining in the fun! Are you ready for more giveaways?

Thank You Blog Hop
Welcome to the Gina K Designs team's special Spellbinders Thank You Blog Hop! I hope you're hopping along with us and arrived here from my talented friend Michelle Woerner's blog. To see the blog hop order, visit the StampTV site.
It is no secret how much I love my Spellbinder dies *wink* and I'm so excited to be a part of this hop as we showcase different projects featuring our beloved dies using the new Grand Calibur machine. When I was at CHA in January, I was able to demo the Grand Calibur to retailers and it was such a great experience. The machine works effortlessly. It is much easier to crank than my other die cutting machine, which I often have to hold still with my left hand as I crank with the right. Grand Calibur's suction works so well that you don't need to do this. It stays put as it cuts. I also love that the cutting area is HUGE! You can cut up to letter size, meaning you can die cut several shapes at a time.
Here is my first card for today's hop. I used the following dies for this one:
And notice that border of bling? That's my favorite find at CHA called the Nestabling, manufactured by Want2Scrap. Bling and Spellbinder Nestabilities together...what more could a crafty girl ask for?
My second card features the following dies:

Houndstooth Love
I'm so glad it's Friday. I'm sure you are, too. Spring is finally here in Croatia. The sun is shining and the buds are starting to show on our trees. I love spring!
Today's card is for Stamp TV's Color Spotlight Challenge. This is a clean and simple card using Vintage Backgrounds (houndstooth) and Christ is Risen (sentiment). I hope you can play along with us. The green is perfect for the Shabby Tea Room's current challenge.

Easter and Thanks
I made the card below for last week's Card Patterns sketch 104, but just forgot to post it. I used my latest Christ is Risen set and Basic Grey Curio papers.
This is also perfect for the Stampin' Sisters in Christ current challenge. I think every other card I make qualifies for their challenge because I just love buttons :-). I especially love the short lesson on the names of God in the Bible found in the SSIC post. What a great reminder of the Great God we serve!

Bright Thank You
Gina's colors for this week's Color Spotlight Challenge are perfect for this bright thank you card. The papers are October Afternoon Modern Homemaker and Seaside. The round label, which is die cut with Spellbinders Labels 9 (using my favorite new toy, Grand Calibur), is from Lovely Labels set.
The lace background stamp is from Vintage Backgrounds and the sentiment is from Christ is Risen set, which as you can see is not only for Easter cards. I used Memento Dandelion and Tuxedo Black inks.

Simple Shabby
Today's card is for Stamp TV's Color Spotlight Challenge #13. I call the style simple shabby because it's much simpler than my usual shabby vintage cards.
The label is from Lovely Labels set. The cross and sentiments are from Christ is Risen. The papers are GKD Wild Dandelion and Creme de Menthe. The patterned paper is from Echo Park's Life is Good. The banner die is from Spellbinders Ribbon Banner dies.
And don't forget to comment on my PREVIOUS POST for a chance to win these stamps to celebrate Card Patterns' 2nd anniversary:

Thank You STV Sketch
Happy Monday, friends. I hope you all had a relaxing weekend. We had a full house almost everyday with lots of friends coming over for dinner, movie, games or a combination of the three. I love that we can host people in our humble home.

Introducing Christ is Risen
Here is my latest, Christ is Risen, perfect for all your Easter projects. I included several sentiments to make it versatile for other occasions.
For Christians like me, Easter is a very important holiday because it's a time we celebrate Christ's resurrection from the dead. It's the very reason He stands out from the rest of us. He conquered death and because of that, we have hope! It's a time of celebration and I try to reflect that on the Christ is Risen set.
And here's a sample card using it, along with some K&Co papers and one of my latest Spellbinder die designs, Fleur de lis Doily Accents.
And starting tomorrow, don't forget to join the Card Patterns crew starting tomorrow as we celebrate our 2nd Anniversary with a daily card inspiration and lots of great prizes!

Gina K Designs Previews, Day Three
Welcome to day three of the Gina K Designs' previews. Today we're showcasing two sets. One is my latest, Christ is Risen, which is full of vintage Christian images, sentiments, and a Bible verse.
The cross, sentiment, and crown are from the set. A ribbon banner stamp is included in the set, but I used one of my favorite new Spellbinders dies, Ribbon Banners on my card. The sentiments fit inside either these banner dies or Labels 14. I die cut the banner die, then sponged ink on the embossed part. The papers are Webster's Pages.
