Lil' Inker's October Release - Day 3

Hello! Welcome back to the final evening of sneak peeks for the new release at Lil' Inker Designs! This is such a SUPER fun Christmas/winter theme release - so excited to finally be sharing all these projects with you!!!



I have a couple of fun cards to share with you tonight - starting with this silver and chalkboard little number!


I used this lovely new sentiment stamp set - LOVE all the beautiful fonts!!!


I did a little chalkboard effect with it - just looked to perfect not too! I die cut the center from the Frames & Flowers Die set out of pretty silver glitter cardstock, and attached those together. I die cut the Cover Up Die: Dotted Scallops from black cardstock, inked the edges in white, then mounted directly on my white cardbase. Added some black baker's twine, then attached my front panel with some foam adhesive. Simple and Elegant!


Next up - I played with the darling new Make a Santa Die and Stamp Set:


Here is a peek at that new set:


This is made to coordinate with the Triangle Treat Holder Die, but can be used separately as well - which is what I did on my card! I die cut the layers, and built him on a die cut tag from Anytime Tags Die Set 2. I created a pocked by sequins vellum on 3 sides to my pattern paper, adding some star sequins, and then stitching the top closed, then attached my tag, sentiment heat embossed on a little hand trimmed black banner, and a few enamel dots. Finished off with some white doodling, some Stickles on the white parts of the hat and the hearts of his boots, and a bit of Glossy Accents on the eyes. 


And now the fun part! There is, of course, a chance to win some shopping money to spend on the new goodies! YAY! Laura is giving away 3 gift certificates for random comments left along the hop - so the more comments you leave, the better your chance of winning!
