LID April Release - Day 3

Hello! Back today for the final day of the new release hop at Lil' Inker Designs - there is such a fun combination of goodies in this release! You should have arrived here from Chrissy Larson - if you stopped by here you can refer to the entire blog hop at the bottom so you don't miss a stop or a chance to win the amazing giveaway. I also have links to all the new products I used on today's cards!

Today I'm wrapping up with a couple of school theme cards - one as a thank you for a great teacher, and one for a graduate!

This first card I used the new Apple Shaker Die to cut the outline in black, then stamped a sentiment from Apple of My Eye and heat embossed in white for a sort of chalk board effect. I tied some jute twine around the apple in a bow, then mounted the apple with foam tape on a panel of rainbow plaid paper die cut with the middle of the Silly Stitched Squares Dies. I stamped another sentiment from  Apple of My Eye directly on the plaid paper, and mounted the entire thing on a kraft cardbase that I die cut with a new favorite Cover Up Die: Stitched Quatrefoil.

And then there is the fabulous new Grad Class Stamp set - perfect for the season of graduation that is just around the corner!

For this one I used the smallest die in Silly Stitched Squares Dies which is a little tag, die cut in black. Again heat embossed my sentiment on it in white, then added some ribbon and twine to the top. Used the gorgeous Cover Up Die: Stitched Quatrefoil again for the background, trimmed slightly and adhered to a blue cardbase to match my ribbon.
