LID:: September 2015 New Release:: Day 3

Welcome back to the third and final day of the Lil' Inker Designs September Release! As usual, we have a fabulous hop for you featuring innovative stamps and dies, I hope you enjoyed this amazing release! You should have arrived from Lisa Henke's Blog!

I really wanted to showcase a rustic, fall theme with this first card. I started with a sand card base with inked edges and embossed a woodgrain pattern from Lil' Inker Designs Cover-Up Die: Stitched Woodgrain. I then die cut a simple, elegant pumpkin and stem from the new Seen On Halloween Dies and inked the edges. I added the extra detail of the stitched ribs from this set as well, what a cool feature! Before adhering the pumpkin to the card base, I used an elegant, perfectly sized sentiment from Seen On Halloween Stamps. Finally, I adhered the pumpkin to the card base and finished with a bow from made from May Arts Natural Burlap String.

My last project of this release switches styles with a bright, fun and clean Halloween Card using the fun Here for the Boos Stamp Set, Seen On Halloween Dies and Pumpkin Faces Dies.

I decided to make the most use out of the negative die left behind when die cutting the pumpkin from the first card, using the Seen On Halloween Dies. I simply cleaned it up by running the piece through my die cutting machine again, framing it with Lil' Inker Designs Stitched Mats: Squares. I then created a card base using the Lil' Inker Designs Stitched Mats: Squares again and stamped a bold sentiment from Here for the Boos Stamp Set. I adhered the pumpkin frame to the card base and finished with a cute jack-o-lantern face die cut from the Pumpkin Faces Die Set.
