Welcome to Day 2 of the Lil' Inker Designs December Release! This release is HUGE and FULL of amazing dies and stamps.......are you ready? You should have arrived from the Lil' Inker Designs blog. But guess what?? The whole new release is now available and can be found HERE!!!
I've got another card to share today using more of the "GEM" release from Lil' Inker Designs. This one is using stamps from a Girl's Best Friend. I've stamped the gems from the set in black ink and then loosely colored them with watered down Distress Inks.
My sentiment (also from Girl's Best Friend) was stamped onto an Anytime Tags 2 diecut and then trimmed flush with my patterned "gem" panel.
For my second card, I've used the new Girl's Best Friend Die along with a fabulous new alphabet set called Alphabet Gems. I started by diecutting the Diamond Die in silver Glitzy Glitter paper and backing it with white cardstock. Next, came all the Glossy Accents covering the entire diamond! Let this dry.....it will be worth it! It's so shiny and sparkly IRL!
I used the Alphabet Gems to put together the word "Congrats" on a large clear block. I wanted to be able to stamp this word one time on my cardstock panel. I practiced a few times on scratch paper first to make sure I had them perfectly straight and lined up. My sentiment was colored in with a trio of Copics: BG10 BG11, and BG13.
Here's the shine and dimension the diamond has with all the Glossy Accents and accent sequins and glittery stamps!
Now for the fun part! There is a $15 gift certificate up for grabs for one lucky commenter along the way! One lucky winner is chosen for each day!!
