It's day two of the Lil' Inker Designs New Release Hop and I get to share even more fun goodies with you today!

Hopefully, you checked out all of Amy's amazing creations before hopping here. If not of it you get lost along the hop you can always find your spot by going to the Lil' Inker Blog. For now, I'm ready to show off some more fun stuff!
Today I decided to show you what I created with the So Very Kind Greeting Die, Bouquet of Roses Stamps, and Bouquet of Roses Dies.
I wanted to try something a little different with the So Very Kind Greeting Die. I just love this series of dies and wanted to make sure I did something extra special with this one so I created a background with it by cutting it one after another from a black piece of cardstock. I layered this onto white to really make it pop. Next, I stamped and colored the Bouquet of Roses Stamps before cutting it out with the Bouquet of Roses Dies. I added my bouquet to the card front at an angle so that you can read the sentiment and then decided it needed a little extra pop of color so I threw in a bit of red dotted paper. I love how bold it turned out! What do you think? Here's
another peek:
My next card uses the thanks die that is part of the Bouquet of Roses Dies as well as the So Prickly Cactus Die Set.
I've been waiting for a super special set to use this really cool glittered gold puffy background that I've been hording. Well, the So Prickly Cactus Die Set seemed like the perfect fit. I got to work cutting the pots from various black & white papers and the cactus out of greens including the green piece from the Dip Dyed Ombre Paper. Super cute! I added some pops of pink and puffy black heart and finished it all off with a sentiment I cut using the Bouquet of Roses Dies. Here's a closer look:
