Lil' Inker Designs June Release Day 1

To say I'm excited about this release is an understatement, I'm absolutely giddy!  You have no idea how it has been killing me waiting to share these amazing Lil' Inker Designs goodies with you.  I love it all and I hope you are as blown away by the team's creations and the amazing 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 a wonderful look at the amazingness on Heather's blog.  If you didn't arrive to my page via Heather's, 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:   Cover Up Die: Alphabet, Stork Stuff Stamps, Stork Stuff Dies, Scratch Off Stickers Silver Pack of 10, Dual Dotted Rectangles Dies, Baby Word Die, and Embossed Dots Rectangles Dies.

I started cutting the adorable Stork Stuff Dies from pink and blue patterned paper because I knew I wanted to do a gender reveal card using the Scratch Off Stickers Silver Pack of 10 (also available in gold).  I cut my cute little storks and added the eyes from the Stork Stuff Stamps.  I attached these to a piece of gray cardstock and then cut it using a Dual Dotted Rectangles Dies.  I love the dots on these and the fact that they cut them on both sides of the cut line.  I feel like they lend themselves really well to graphic cards but I was surprised at how adorable they were on a more whimsical card like this.  LOVE!  Next, I cut my little bundle, stamped the sentiment from Stork Stuff Stamps, and covered it with a Scratch Off Sticker.  I cut the amazing Cover Up Die: Alphabet from yellow paper and attached a layer of vellum behind it before attaching it to a gray card base.  I used the vellum to soften the gray card base so I didn't have gray on gray on gray...ha ha!  Next, I added my stork layer and another Dual Dotted Rectangle stamped with my sentiment from Stork Stuff Stamps.  I used the already cut out circles to add a little yellow twine to the sentiment layer helping it pop.  I finished the whole thing off with some enamel hearts.  You can see how the card looks before scratching and after.  What fun!

Next up, I had some fun with the Baby Word Die, and Embossed Dots Rectangles Dies.

This card couldn't have been easier to create and it turned out amazingly well.  When you have cute dies and stamps, you just make cute cards.  Ha ha!  I started with a gray front that I used the Embossed Dots Rectangles Dies.  These are bigger dots and there is more space between the dots than in the Dual Dotted Rectangles Dies.  Another obvious difference, one embosses and the other cuts.  I can see them both being staples in my crafting.  I had this fun cloud printed vellum that I knew would make an adorable baby card so I used the previously released Lollipop & Pencil Treat Holder Die to created this fun panel of vellum.  The holes were perfect to wrap some hemp twine through before adding the Baby Word Die and stamped "welcome" from Stork Stuff Stamps.  All that was left was to literally puffy heart this card.  ;)  Super simple and cute.

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

 

I just had to share with you one other new product.  Lil' Inker Designs has pattern paper packs!!  Can you even believe it?  I didn't want you to go another day without seeing these amazing packs and don't worry, I'll be showing them off in the days to come.  

   

 I hope you enjoyed my creations and will join the rest of the team on the hop.  You'll want to leave comments along the way because Laura gives out a $15 Lil' Inker Designs store credit to a lucky commenter each day of the hop.  It could be you.  I'm sure I'll see you on the hop and tomorrow for another fun day of release projects.  See you then!
