WELCOME TO THE NOVEMBER “CHRISTMAS/WINTER WISHES” BLOG HOP!
Hi everyone! Thanks for playing along in our November blog hop! The Blog Hop with Sean & Regina will now be featuring Gina K. Designs stamps only for our monthly blog hops starting this month! A lot of us have started to create our holiday cards. There are some amazing new stamp sets by Gina K. Designs that were released in October and we are sure to be inspired in the upcoming November release as well!
This month, we are honored that we are joined by Rebecca Oehlers, a Gina K. Designs Illustrator who has created some beautiful stamp sets for Gina K. Designs available in the Stamp TV Store!
The blog hop designers have been busy creating a card or cards that we hope will inspire you to create some beautiful Christmas and winter themed cards for your family and friends. Enjoy yourself as you hop along for the holidays!
OUR BLOG HOP SPONSOR!
Becky Oehlers is a member of the Gina K. Designs Illustrator Team! Becky’s style is really fun, crisp and clean. They are used to make wonderful cards with just the right message or can be used to add some fun to your scrapbooking pages. In addition, Becky is one of the best card designers and artists in the craft world. Go to Becky’s blog to look at the great things she has been up to AND view the card samples she has created with her newest stamp set “Mistletoe Memories” that was released yesterday during the Stamp TV October Release Party.

Here is the card I made for the hop. It is a somewhat different style than I usually make. I tend more toward the 'clean and simple' type cards, but this one just seemed to need more layers and action! I hope you like it!
This card was made using Becky's set, "Mistletoe Memories." I used Gina K Designs Pure Luxury card stock and patterned paper, including White, Warm Cocoa, Cherry Red and Dark Sage along with "Merry Little Christmas" patterned paper. I embossed the base with the Cuttlebug folder called "Mistletoe Kisses." I used the text stamp and the Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays stamps to create the rectangle and square layers. The rest of the pieces are stamps from the Mistletoe Memories set including the 'mistletoe memories' circle, the 'sealed with a kiss' sentiment and the mistletoe and berries. All ink used on the card is Memento.
I had fun making this rather non-traditional holiday card. I hope you enjoyed seeing it. And now . . .

Very nice card. I am already following your blog. Thank you for sharing.
The layers of your card make an intriquing combination.
Cute idea and love all the layers and how you put them together.
Such a great card. I love all the elements. The mistletoe sprig is perfect as an anchor for the sentiment!
