Come on a Festive hop with me!

Tonight we are sharing cards/projects using the Festive Frame set from Gina K. Designs. I embossed my image with Hematite (black pearl) embossing powder on white shimmer cardstock. The flower image was colored with R20, R29, R35 and a touch of R59 Copic markers. I punched the corners of the PL Black Onyx cardstock with an Iron Eagle punch and attached it to a white shimmer panel that I ran through my Cuttlebug with the Divine Swirls EF. I added some red Midori ribbon tied up in a big bow and layered to a 5" x 7" PL Black Onyx card. Melanie Muenchinger, the Illustrator of Festive Frame has invited a couple of her friends to join in on the blog hop tonight, so click on their blog links to see the projects they've created for us:

Melanie is going to be giving away a Bow Easy and some ribbon to one lucky person. All you have to do is visit our blogs and leave us some love. Melanie will be randomly picking one of our blogs and then randomly picking a comment for the prize winner.
Then, check in on these GinaK Designer's participating in the Blog Hop tonight:
And our fabulous Center Stage Spotlight Team:
After you're done hopping to all the Designer's blogs stop by GinaK's Idea Center here: Festive Frame for lots more ideas on how to use Melanie's stamp set. And, don't forget to check in on GinaK's blog so you can leave your comment to be entered as a chance to win this stamp set, too!
