Lil’ Inker April Release Day 2

Today is Day 2 of a 3-day release hop for Lil’ Inker Designs, and if you’re hopping along with the team then you may have arrived here from Sarah Jay’s blog, but if you’re lost along this hop, you can always head on over to the Lil’ Inker Designs blog to start at the beginning.

Today we are featuring projects made with the new Stitched Scallop border die - I used it to make the edge on these party hat cards. I wanted to make a set of birthday cards for my mom, since she’s always looking for more cards.

I cut triangles from some A Muse Studio polka dotted cardstock in a rainbow of colors to make the card fronts and backs, and used the Lil’ Inkers Gift Bow Topper die to make the pom-pom on top.

Then I decided to stamp the inside of the cards using the sentiment “You’re never too old to wear a party hat” from the previously released You’re Invited stamp set, and the banner image from the Mom and Dad Sentiments stamp set that was featured yesterday by our team.

I also decorated the envelopes - I selectively stamped three lines for a mailing address using the lines from the You’re Invited stamp set and added the color-matched banner once again from the Mom and Dad Sentiments stamp set from this month’s release.

There are two Lil’ Inker Designs $10 credits available as prizes to folks who comment along the way in this week’s hop, so head on over to the next stop at the Lil’ Inker Designs blog!

Have an awesome day,

Neat and Tangled Release Day 4: Party Dots

Welcome back to another release preview from Neat and Tangled Stamps! Today we are partying like it’s 3012 with fun new set called Party Dots!

My card was inspired by a new blog template featured here, and it has quickly moved to the very top of my wish list…but I keep having a cheap attack before adding to my cart. LOL. Maybe I will cave on payday. :)

I stamped the long bubbly image many times across the front panel using 4 different shades of A Muse Studio ink onto their matching a|s cardstock. This sentiment is included in the Party Dots set, too.

You can check out the rest of the design team’s samples on the Neat and Tangled Stamps blog. Thanks very much and have a great day!
