Happy Hump Day! Thanks for sticking with me all week as we debut projects created with the amazing new Lil' Inker Designs March release. So far I've shared a bunch of Easter projects, but today there's not a bunny in sight, lol! First up is a card using the So Very Kind Greeting Die.
I started by creating a fun background with alcohol inks. I die cut the So Very Kind greeting from both white and black paper and offset it just a bit and added the inked paper behind the greeting. I added some twine and adhered it to a piece of paper embossed with the Quilted Stitch background. It's so bright and bold - I love this one!
Next we have dies that compliment the So Prickly stamp set! The So Prickly Cactus dies are AWESOME! They can totally be used on their own without the stamp set - check out that embossed detail!
I pieced together the cacti & the pot by die cutting extras of each and replacing the little dots (this was super easy - I just adhered the larger of the die cuts with the holes already popped out, and laid the other color die on top. Then I just poked the pieces through and they popped right into place) The background was ink blended with Distress Oxides, and the stamped sentiment comes from the So Prickly stamp set.
And finally, a card for Mom using the new Bouquet of Roses stamps and dies. I stamped and colored the pretty bouquet with Copic markers and used the coordinating die to cut it out. I cut off the ribbon edge and instead wrapped the bouquet with twine. Check out that cute teeny tiny tag!! I love that you can add different names to it - here I chose Mom.
I added the bouquet to a Fringed Scallop tag with foam adhesive and stamped the sentiment, also from Bouquet of Roses, directly on the woodgrain patterned paper. This card would be perfect for a birthday, Mother's Day, or just because!
That's all I've got for you - I hope you've fallen in love with lots of the wonderful products showcased this week. They are all available now at the Lil' Inker Designs store!
