Lil' Inker Designs June Release Day #3


Well, it's the last day of our new release hop at Lil' Inker Designs and I'm super excited to show off these last couple products.  Hopefully, you started out at the the Lil' Inker Blog so you don't miss a stop on the hop and have come here from the amazing Caly's blog.  If you are feeling a little lost, make sure you hop back to the Lil' Inker Blog to get back on the trail of fun.  You can also check out the Lil' Inker Store where all of the new release goodies, and a whole lot more, are ready and waiting for you to put in your cart!

First up, I created this gift card holder using the super fun new To Go Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder Die and the Coffee Talk 2 Stamps.


Can you tell I was really into kraft this release?  I just couldn't resist a black, kraft, and mustardish color scheme...especially when I saw this heart sticker in my stash!  I grabbed a fun dotted piece of my patterned kraft paper and cut just the cup portion of my To Go Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder Die.  That way I didn't use a whole bunch of that paper when it would look just as nice for the back to be regular old kraft.  Speaking of, I cut the whole long cup to fold from normal kraft card stock and then attached the patterned front and lid to the base.  Next, I created a collar with some black card stock and a sentiment from Coffee Talk 2 Stamps embossed in the center.  I love how the collar not only completes to look of the to go cup but also holds everything secure for gifting.  I added my gift card and then decided I may want to hang this from a bag or present.  So, I poked a hole in the corner and added some fun corresponding twine.  All that was left was to add a gift card!  Here's a closer look:


Coffee always makes me feel super and that is why I love this final card using the Super Coffee Die & Stamp Bundle.


This card makes me think of all the super hero cartoons of my childhood.  He's the cutest super coffee I have ever seen!  I found this paper that had hello in a bunch of different fonts and colors and it made me think of the bang and bam effects in the old Batman TV show.  So, I went with it as my inspiration.  I added a strip of green patterned paper to give my sentiment a nice spot to be read and my Super Coffee Die & Stamp Bundle a spot to really shine.  I stamped, colored, glossified a cape, and cut out this good morning maker and decided he needed a good bam behind him.  Luckily, the Seasonal Stars Dies Set was the perfect shape to give this card a real punch.  I got everything on the card front but still felt it needed something.  Then it hit me, it needed some softening up to stick with the cartoon feel.  Like a flash, I grabbed the Stitched Mats: Rounded Rectangles and softened the edges making this a super fun card.  Here's another peek:


Thanks so much for checking out my creations and don't forget about our giveaway!
