Lil’ Inker Designs June Release Hop Day 1
By Suzanne
Hello, hello!!! I’ve been excited for this Lil’ Inker Designs release for quite some time! This is Day 1 of a 4-day release, and if you’re hopping along with us you may have arrived here from Sarah Jay’s blog. If you get lost along the way, you can always head back to the Lil’ Inker Designs Blog to start the hop from the beginning.
All of the new release products are currently available in the store, but today we are featuring two of the new items: the Pieced Chevron Die and Stitched Mats: Circles, both of which are featured on my first card.
I decided to make a very monochromatic white card using the Stitched Mats: Circles and the previously released Stitched Mats: Rectangles, along with a Prima flower, the gold glitter Thickers from the Crate Paper Maggie Holmes collection, some gold Mr. Huey’s and several diecuts from the Pieced Chevron Die:
For my second card, I wanted to use patterned paper - these are a combination of designs from SEI and Little Yellow Bicycle, but the rub-ons and flair are from Fancy Pants. I used the Stitched Mats: Circles to diecut the center panel:
Here’s a closeup of the stitching. I made my own flag by adding the rub-on to a strip of white paper and then adhering it to the pearl stick pin:
One of the BEST parts of these circles dies, which make them unique from any other die that’s available, is that these dies also leave stitching on the negative portion of the diecut. Here’s an extra card that I made to show you what I am talking about:
Can you see the stitching that was left along the edge of the area where the circle was cut from? Yeah, I think you NEED these!
Your next stop on this hop is Taheerah’s blog! Thanks for stopping by, and good luck winning one of this month’s Lil’ Inker prizes!
