LID:: August 2017 Release:: Day 3


Welcome to the last day of the Lil' Inker Designs August 2017 Release Showcase...full of innovative, fun and beautiful items! Once again, we have a fabulous hop for you featuring new stamps and dies that'll make you swoon! If you are following the hop, you should have arrived from the ever so talented Jessica's Blog! (Visit the Lil' Inker Design's Blog for the full link up.)



These little dinos are too cute! I started my scene by inking some clouds onto a cardstock panel, and then creating some ground with the really cool Deco Edge Border Dies. (This die mimics the look of torn paper edges, but it takes all the guess work and mess-ups out for you!) I inked the edges and adhered them to my cloud base. Both had some Nuvo Mousse rubbed over them to age them a bit too.


I then got to stamp the cute dino, cloud and palm tree from the Hello Dino Stamp Set and die cut them from the Hello Dino Dies. I finished the card with a cute and punny sentiment from the Hello Dino Stamp Set. Very simple two step stamping makes from such cute scenes!


My final card is a shaker card featuring the super fun Cover Up Die: Hello Beautiful. I die cut it from a white cardstock panel, bordered each of the die cut squares with foam tape and filled them with a rainbow of sequins. I finished with a die cut sentiment from the previously released Thanks Word Die.




Here's a look at the new release products showcased in my two projects today:



It is with pleasure that I get to send you to the talented Lisa Henke'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 AUGUST 2017 RELEASE products are already up at the store!
