LID July Release Day 3 - Red, White, and Black with Circles

Hello! Today is the final day of the Blog Hop to celebrate the BRAND NEW July release at Lil' Inker Designs! While this is a smaller release than some others, it is packed with lots of cuteness!!!! You can find the entire new release HERE!


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 have pair of cards to share using the new Perfect Palette Die two ways combined with a background I created with alcohol inks!


For the first card, I die cut the pieces, then lined up the circles on white cardstock, using the orginal die cut as a guide. I mounted them one at a time with foam adhesive, then lifted off the other piece. Perfect circle background!


I finished this bold card off very simply by die cutting the Hello Word Die from a previous release two times from black cardstock, layering together with a glue pen, and then coating with a good layer of Glossy Accents for additional shine!


For the second card, I used the original piece, mounted with foam adhesive, and stamped one of the circle images from Spiffy Spots Stamp Set into the circles, rotating it a quarter turn each time so that it would appear more random, even though it was the same circle image.


I stamped a sentiment in one of the circles, also from Spiffy Spots stamp set.


So there you go! A simple and quick way to create two cards with one die, and get a fun different effect both times!

  23. Do I ever love these two cards. The red alcohol ink and the word die with glossy accents really go together so well! And the black design with the red background pop's out so well! Favourites for sure.
