Gina K. Inspiration Hops, Day 2: Timeless Poppies and Bloomin' Wild

 Welcome back, Friends! ready for some more stamping inspo! We've got two more gorgeous new sets to showcase today, from Lisa with Bloomin' Wild and Arjita with Timeless Poppies!

In addition to beautiful flowers and leaves, Lisa always adds a new large element to every floral set that will be very useful on cards of all kinds, and this ribbon/banner/pennant thingy (yes, I'm sure that's what it's called) does not disappoint!  I had a bunch of ideas for making patterns with it, but I also noticed it was the perfect width to go with the hexagon die in my Beautiful Bees set, to highlight a greeting or make something like a medal or award!  This is a color combo I love, the yellow black and white are so fresh and cheery and the gray gives it elegance!  I added a button from my Gina K. stash to the flower of that big, frilly flower and popped up a bee! I stamped this one on Wild dandelion cardstock and the colored the wings white, love that yellow border all around, really pops!


Bloomin Wild die set

Bloomin' Wild


 Timeless Poppies

I adore this greeting! I don't have a sister, but thankfully many who feel like one (I mean, I imagine) Thick and thin, true blue. And of course my sisters in Christ.  So I have a long list of people I would send a card like this to...  That's me and my bee!  I'm the one on the right) ;) Cardstock is Pure Luxury Kraft and White. Even uncolored, these flowers shine...

But, colored, drop the mic! And how gorgeous are fall colors?! I wanted it to look more graphic so I kept the colors more solid rather than blending.  Card base is GKD Pure Luxury Coral Reef and sentiment is stamped on GKD Kraft.

And of course if you wanted, you could replace the word "be"...with a stamped BEE. just sayin!!

Love these sets, great job, illustrators!  Please tell me in the comments your favorite card today!


Here's all the new stuff in What's New!


Next on the hop is the amazingly talented Mindy!

    So adorable with the button in the center of that gorgeous flower. Loving your bee! It's amazing to me how every design team member can take a stamp set and just create something so different. Your "graphic" poppies are beautiful!

    I really loved the bee card with the Bee getting pollen out of the poppy flower.. I was thinking about doing that exact same thing if I were able to get those sets of stamps sets and you did it for me.. You read my mind. Thank you for reading my mind.. you are awesome for that.. unfortunately I won't be able to afford to get any of the stamp sets this time around and I really love those bees..and Poppies..
