Lil' Inker Designs April Release Day 1!


It's time for another amazing release and I'm SO excited!  You have no idea how it has been killing me waiting to share these amazing Lil' Inker Designs goodies with you.  This release is FABULOUS and I hope you are as blown away by the team's creations and the products as I am.  Everything is just wow!  Lucky for you, the whole release is available right now in the Lil' Inker Store.  You should have just enjoyed all the awesome creations over on Maureen's blog and, hopefully, you got here via her blog.  If not, head on over to the the Lil' Inker Blog to start from the beginning so you don't miss a thing.  You will want to see all the amazing creations for this release.

Today, I'm going to show off these amazing products:  Vintage Ink Die Set, Vintage Ink Stamp Set, Just Sayin' Stamp Set, Speech Bubbles 2 Die Set and the We Connect Stamp Set.  First up, a card using the Vintage Ink Die Set and the Vintage Ink Stamp Set.


I have to say, if you like to color, the Vintage Ink Die Set and the Vintage Ink Stamp Set are TOTALLY for you!  I had the best time coloring these images.  I made sure to use black to do some of the shading to try to get that authentic vintage tattoo look.  I love how it turned out.  I cut both the anchor and the banner out and layered them on a patterned piece of paper that I cut with the recently released Stitched Mats: Dual Stitched Rectangles.  I then added that to a cardbase I created with vellum and black cardstock cut with the amazing Cover Up Die: Center Point Chevron.

Next up, I had some fun with Just Sayin' Stamp Set and Speech Bubbles 2 Die Set.


I love these adorable speech bubbles!  They are a great addition to the Lil' Inker die line up.  For this card, I cut two pieces of tannish patterned paper with the Stitched Mats: Dual Stitched Rectangles.  Next I cut two Speech Bubbles 2 bubbles from some pink polkadot papers which I then stamped with some of the hilariously awesome sentiments found in the Just Sayin' Stamp Set.  I finished it off with some twine, a heart from Of the Heart Dies and some heart stickers.  How awesome is that?

Finally, my card using the We Connect Stamp Set.


I stamped those gorgeous circles from the We Connect Stamp Set in a kraft colored ink before coloring them with copics in a similar color.  I then embossed my sentiment from We Connect Stamp Set in a turquoise in the center of my image.  I cut this out and layered it on some matching turquoise cardstock which I also trimmed to the same shape before adding it to my cardfront with two fun patterned papers.  I can see TONS of coloring and black and white potential with this fun stamp set.  I can't wait to play with it some more.  ;)

Here's a quick look at the products I used today:
