Welcome to our last day of inspiration hops for the new Gina K release, I hope you’ve had a good time seeing all the inspiration we’ve had to share. First up is My True Love Gave To Me by Gina K. I made a side fold card (I can’t remember the technical name for this). The key tag punch is popped up with foam tape so the main image panel slips under in the corner and keeps the card closed. I used the Branching Out set for a pretty Christmassy border.
Here is a view of the inside of the card.
And a view of the whole stamp set.
For my second card, I used the new One Free With 3 set, Cool Beans. So when you purchase any 3 stamp sets from now until the next release, just add this set to your cart for FREE! *As a reminder, this set will be for sale once the next stamp release occurs*. It is a fun coffee themed set. And although I don’t drink it anymore (substituted it with tea mid-January), I do still have friends & family who do drink coffee, so I can send them these type of cards to enjoy. One thing I still do enjoy from time to time is a cool refreshing Frappuccino from Starbucks!
As you hop through the designer’s blogs, make sure you leave comments on each one for a chance to win a free stamp set of your choice valued up to $24.95!

love this Donna! you are very creative!
WONDERFUL cards! I love atypical folds because they are so unexpected. I like that you didn't color the grinder on the coffee card. I would have, just out of habit. Really adds nostalgia the way you've done it.

Two great cards. I really like the design of the first card.
The fold and use of images on the Days of Christmas card is a stroke of brilliance. I love, love, love it! And the second card is so warm and rich . . . just like a good cup of coffee.

Hi, Donna,
I have never seen a card folded like the 1st one! Super cool! And your coffee card is so stunning, not cluttery or too busy! Thank you for lovely ideas!
Two very cute cards. Thanks for sharing. jeannett_mcgee@comcast.net
Love today's cards Donna, they are beautiful!
These stamps are just so cute - they almost make the cards all by themselves. TFS Cheryl W.
Awesome cards, Donna. Love that folded card, too.
Very cool fold on the first card! Great job on both cards!
How pretty! Your shading is beautiful!

Loved both cards. Thanks for sharing.
Que originales las tarjetas, me gustó la primera más que la otra, por sus colores totalmente navideños. Amo la navidad!!!!
Beautiful layouts and folds! Great job
These are great!
i love the shading you've done, and the fold idea! linda patti tpatti@windstream.net
Great Christmas card, Donna! I love the cool beans card a lot!! If it wasn't so late, I'd make a cup of coffee right now! LOL
Beautiful cards, thanks for the inspiration
Hello pretty lady! I'm here to tell you that you've done it again! You've gone and impressed me all over again! How do you do it!? Fabulous cards as always!
LOVE that card design for the True Love set!! And the coffee card just glows! Very cool beans indeed!
Love the tri-fold card especially!
Lovely cards, especially the first card with its folds.
I really like your sponging around the edges of both cards Donna - adds such a softness to your cards. Your coffee card is particularly pretty - I could see it hanging in a wall of a coffee house and everyone wanting to buy it.
Great cards. I love the layout on the Christmas card. So clever!
What a clever border! The folding also really adds to the drama of the card.
Great cards. I truly like the interesting fold on the first card. The color / paper selection on the second was spot on! Thanks
You have done a wonderful job with your cards. Love your Christmas card, the colors, the fancy fold and the layout you designed, very pretty! That Cool Bean set looks like it would be so much fun to play with!
Blessings~
Beautiful work!
