LID:: January 2018 Release:: Day 2


Welcome to the second day of the Lil' Inker Designs January 2018 Release Showcase... Once again, we have a fabulous hop for you featuring new stamps and dies... it is going to be one fantastic year for LID! 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.)




I've got a fun shaker for my first card today, as it seems that the Love is Love Word Die was made for shakers! To make this card, I started by die cutting two rectangles with Stitched Mats: Rectangles from white card stock. From on of the panels, I die cut the Love is Love Word Die. I die cut various shades of pink card stock with the accessories dies included in the Love is Love Word Die, added some sequins to this mix and assembled the shaker and adhered it onto a hot pink card base. I finished the card with a lovely sentiment from the new stamp set, Love is Love Stamp Set.


My next project features the innovative cover-up dies, Forever Heart Die Layer I and Forever Heart Die Layer II along with Quilted Stitched XOXO Die for a pretty in pink Valentine, Wedding or Anniversary Card. I started by embossing a pink cardstock panel with the Stitched XOXO cover plate, this was adhered to a white card base. I then took a white card panel and embossed the heart shaped stitching and boarder using the Forever Heart Die Layer II. I carefully traced the heart with a border and cut out a heart, to let the XOXOs sneak out from behind. I finished the card with a foam sentiment die cut from the word die included in Forever Heart Die Layer Ihttps://www.lilinkerdesigns.com/forever-heart-die-layer-i/#_a_kbaker
