Lil' Inker Designs January New Release Blog Hop {Day 2}

Hi everyone!!  Welcome to the Lil' Inker Designs New Release Blog Hop---Day 2!!  Today is my day to share the newest stamps and dies from Lil' Inker Designs!  If you've come from Laura Pryor's blog, then you are in the right place! 



OH MY GOODNESS!  I truly love the newest stamp set and die combo being released this week.  Let's introduce:  Flags and Tags.  This stamp set has the most beautiful sentiments and frames to coordinate with the die.  Such a versatile set in so many ways!  Below are the coordinating dies.  These can be used separately or together for gorgeous layered creations.




First up is a cute little tag idea to dress up some tiny glassine bags.....just perfect for one Ghirardelli Chocolate square.  ****Disclaimer:  No chocolate was eaten during this crafting session.....hehe.  Seriously, this is my new favorite Ghirardelli chocolate!****  Here I've die cut the frame using some DP from FancyPants and added a sewn on button to a ribbon tab. 



Next up is a CAS card using the polka dot die image layered with the double ended banner die.  My base was impressed with the Linen Impression Plate from PTI.



My last card for today uses the polka dot frame to stamp these fun stitched images to create my own background paper.....I love how this turned out!  Kinda fun and funky!  I want to mention that each of the sentiments included in this set fit PERFECTLY on this banner. 


Ok, well that's it for today but I haven't even showed anything yet using the BIG die from the Flags and Tags set.  More to come on that one! 

****You must stay tuned this week because on Friday, we will be sharing some BONUS GOODIES that will be PERFECT for those Valentine's you need to make!  That's all I can say on that right now!  :) ****
