Welcome to the Lil' Inker Designs November Mini Release! Lil' Inker Designs will be releasing TWO new stamp sets starting on Black Friday (November 24, EST). There is so much good stuff happening that you will not want to miss the Lil' Inker Designs blog for a sneak to the Newsletter! Just sayin'!
My first project uses the adorable new set, Magic Winter. I've created a background using Mermaid, Citrus, and Silver Additive Alcohol inks for my blended background. I love how it came out! Let me tell you how forgiving it is! The first time I stamped my sentiment (using StazOn ink), it smudged because the YUPO paper is slick. So I used StazOn cleaner and a paper towel! The messed up sentiment was gone! Then I just added a bit more color to my background using the same sponge I used to apply the color in the first place!
For my unicorn, I silver heat embossed and colored in with coordinating Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. Using the Magic Winter dies, I cut out my unicorn and popped it up on my cardfront using foam adhesive. I added a strip of glitter cardstock and matted my panel onto a teal layer.
*************************************
My second card uses the Unstoppable stamp set. This set is so versatile and virtually impossible to re-create a background using this set. I used Catherine Pooler Inks in Daydream, Mandarin Spice, and Eucalyptus along with the images.
I created a background of fun shapes and colors. (The oval stamp is actually the BACKSIDE of one of the stamps from Latte Love Stamps)
My sentiment was stamped onto a Stitched Mats: Dual Stitched Rectangles and added to a larger die cut rectangle (from the same set) from vellum. A little bit of a messy silver thread was added behind the sentiment.
Here's the full blog hop list to get you started!! Remember there is a winner of the whole release for commenting along the way!
Now.....don't forget to look at this SALE!!! Time for some Black Friday shopping starting November 24-26th!
