Lil' Inker Designs December 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 a stop on the hop.  If you get lost along the way, make sure you stop back there to get back on the trail of fun.  While you are visiting the Lil' Inker Blog, make sure you go 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.  Now it's time to show off these fantastic products and to top it all off, I'm joining in the Winter/Holiday Coffee Lovers Bloghop!


 My first project is a little tag I made using Dual Dotted Ovals Dies and So Prickly Stamps.


As soon as I saw the So Prickly Stamp Set, I knew I wanted to dress up some cute succulents for gifts this Christmas.  I'm kind of addicted to succulents lately and have been having fun with my kids building small terrariums for around the house.  I'm a fan of any plant that thrives on my forgetting to water them.  Ha ha!  So, to make this tag I started with some fun graphic gray word patterned paper which is die cut with Dual Dotted Ovals Dies to create a tag.  It's amazing how sharp the dots make this tag.  LOVE!  Next I stamped my cute cactus using So Prickly Stamps with a terracotta color for the pot and a light minty color for the cactus.  I just loved how these colors paired with the gray and with the succulent in the pot also.  The best thing about the So Prickly Stamps is the options.  There are SO many combos to be made and such fun pot choices.  I finished my tag off with some of the adorable sentiments in the stamp set stamped on little flags and accented with some fun stickers and enamel dots.

My next project uses the Dual Dotted Oval Dies paired with some other fun Lil' Inker products that were just made to be shared on the Winter/Holiday Coffee Lovers Bloghop.      


For my final card, I used the Dual Dotted Oval Dies to create a frame in this kraft and gold striped paper which I backed with some black vellum.  To fill my frame, I cut this awesome coffee cup using the Coffee Cozy Die Set and the Coffee Cozy Stamp Set from black, white, and GOLD.  I love gold!  Ha ha.  Next I masked the deer out of the Oh Deer Christmas stamp set so I could just use the banner and leaves.  I stamped this on vellum along with a sentiment from Oh Deer and colored the leaves with copics.     

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 hope you enjoyed out new release!  We love sharing these awesome products with you!  Be sure to keep hopping, here's the list:
