It really doesn't surprise me that Lil' Inker Designs just released some awesome and unique new products, I adore this company, the owner and their products. Today is the first of three days of the Lil' Inker Designs July 2016 Release Showcase!
Once again, we have a fabulous hop for you featuring innovative stamps and dies! If you are following the hop, you should have arrived from the ever so talented

I started with a black stamped sentiment from The Little Things Stamps on a white card base and then die cut a series of leaves and flowers from The Little Things Dies with various shades of green from the leaves and white for the flowers. I also die cut all of the circles from the Fringed Scalloped Circle Dies in a deep teal color. These were arranged onto the white card base, with the middle circle set adhered with dimensional adhesive. I then arranged the vines and flowers around the fringed circle and sentiment, and finished with yellow accents.
My next card also features a couple of products from the new release, and I'm still in awe on how Lil' Inker Designs products work so well together!
For this card, I embossed an distress inked kraft panel with the Quilted Stitched Spirals Die. I further outlined the spirals with a warm gray copic marker. I adhered this to a white card base. For the sentiment, I painted a watercolored panel with shades of blue and purple and then die cut a fun sentiment from the super versatile Everyday Word Tags Dies. I simply trimmed off the tag part before adhering the die cut to my card! I finished the card by rounding the bottom corners and adding a loose double bow of burlap string.
Here's a look at the new release products showcased in my card today:
Also, the Stitched Gift Card Holder Die is back for a limited time! The size is slightly improved (a bit larger for more wiggle room and easier folding...). These are just perfect for your holiday gift-giving!
It is with pleasure that I get to send you to the talented Chrissy Larson's Blog as the next stop along the hop. I hope you get a chance to visit the Lil' Inker Design Store now as all the NEW JULY 2016 RELEASE products are already up at the store!
Don't forget to leave a comment along the each of the stops on the hop, as there are three $15 gift certificates up for grabs to the Lil' Inker Designs Store!
