Sweet!

Hi friends!  I've been playing some more with the June Lil' Inker Designs release this week and I wanted to share a card today that uses several of the new release items!
I used a piece of the new Cover Up Die - Perfectly Plaid for my background.   There are so many awesome uses for this die!   I didn't layer it here, but if you cut it twice and flip one of the layers around, they layer up and create the coolest plaid pattern!   I snipped the hole from the Sweet sentiment (from the Baby Word Tag Dies) and layered the white cut on top of the pink cut.   The large flowers and leaf are from the new Perky Posies XL dies and the smaller are from Perky Posies.   These dies are so much fun to use - the color combinations and layers are endless!   I added some clear Nuvo drops to the center of each flower.   The 'You Are' sentiment from the previously released  Best Mom was stamped and heat embossed on a strip of pink cardstock.    

Thanks for stopping by today!    Be sure to check out all of the new goodies in the Lil' Inker Designs shop.   If any item is out of stock, you can go ahead and enter your email and you'll be notified when it's back in stock.  Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Lil' Inker Designs June Release - Day 3


Hello again!   It's the final inspiration day for the June Lil' Inker Designs release.   Is your wish list a mile long?!   SUCH good stuff this release!   Be sure to read to the end to find out how you can win the entire release!

My first card today features one of my favorites from this release - Super Coffee!   This set comes with both stamps and the die so you are ready to start creating right away!   I die cut several super coffee's and layered them to create a thicker die cut, then I attached it to the card with an Action Wobble Spring!   The sentiment is the perfect size to stamp on the Wrappers Delight: Sunburst Die!

Next up, a super easy way to give a gift card - the To-Go Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder die!  This die creates a really cute gift card holder in a flash!  Just choose your papers and run them through your machine - the slots are cut for you too!  


I stamped the sentiment from Coffee Talk 2 on red paper and heat embossed with white, then cut around it, leaving some of the red edge.  The tiny hearts are from the Love is Love die set.   I added a bit of Glossy Accents - they look like tiny enamel accents!

Lil' Inker Designs June Release - Day 2


Welcome back for day two of the Lil' Inker Designs June release!   I've got a few cards to share with you today.   Be sure to read on to find out how you can win the entire LID June release!


First up, a card using several of the new coffee-themed stamps and dies released this month!   This card is nearly all die cuts - the only stamping is on the coffee mug!    That utterly amazing background was created with the new Perfectly Plaid Cover Up Die.  I can't tell you how cool this is! When you cut two backgrounds and flip one around, you get this amazing layered plaid.   I cut mine from white and grey and layered them over a purple card base.  The coffee mug and spoon are from the new Coffee Talk 2 die set, and the fun sentiment is from Coffee Talk 2.   There are so many AMAZING sentiments in this stamp set!!  The large flowers are from the new Perky Posies XL stamp set, which is a larger version of Perky Posies.   I've used a few flowers from each set to accentuate the coffee mug!

Next up is a card using lots of fun baby themed products!   I've created a shaker using the new Baby Onesie Shaker Die.   "Little Peanut", embossed on the acetate of the shaker, is from Little Ones.  The shaker is filled with a mixture of sequins found in my stash!


I added some twine through one of the tag dies included in the new Baby Word Tags die set, and heat embossed the sentiment, also from Little Ones, onto a patterned paper sentiment strip.



Soooo - would you like to win the ENTIRE June release?  I bet!   Just leave a comment here before hopping over to Lisa's blog - and be sure to leave comments on each stop of the hop for even more chances to win!   Some lucky crafter is going to be very happy!  Below you will find the entire hop list, as well as links to the products I've used for today's projects.   Be sure to stop by again tomorrow for more projects with this new release!   See you soon!

Lil' Inker Designs June Release - Day 1


Hi there, and happy Monday, friends!   Not only is today the last day of school for my kiddos (aside from going back for a few Regents exams) - it's also the first day of the Lil' Inker Designs June release!   There's definitely something for everyone this release!   Are you a cat lover?   Know a cat lover?   Then the stamp set I've used today is purr-fect for you!

For my card I've used the super duper adorable Cat Hugs stamps and dies.   This stamp is a coloring lover's dream!   This crowd of cats looks great whether you color them entirely (like I did with Copics for this card), or if you just highlight a few cats, or even just their accessories, as you will see in some of the other design team members' projects.


The best part of this stamp set is the coordinating dies - there are traditional dies to cut out each of the tiny accessories, but then there are two other dies - one will cut along the top edge of the cats, and the other will cut tiny slots for their paws so that you can insert those cutie pie accessories - very cool!!  

I wanted to have my crowd of cats as a bit of a surprise on the inside of the card, so after scoring my card base, I used the Fringed Scallop Heart die to die cut a window on the front.   Then I adhered my patterned paper and cat die cut on the inside and stamped the sentiment.   


Would you like to win the ENTIRE June release?   I know you would!   Just leave a comment here before hopping over to Lisa's blog - and be sure to leave comments on each stop of the hop for even more chances to win!   Some lucky crafter is going to be very happy!  Below you will find the entire hop list, as well as links to the products I've used for today's projects.   Be sure to stop by again tomorrow for more projects with this new release!   Have a great day!
