Hi Guys!!! I am back again, to share this cute stamp set, one of the newly released 2 Cute Ink stamp by Lil' Inker Designs.  I wanted to color it as soon as I saw this cutie!!! This set has superb sentiments too.

I used distress inks to create the sea and used some pearl water spritz. A bit of fussy cutting and lots of dimension.

Enjoy your week and head over to the store for lots more adorable stamps!

Back to School by Mary Johnson

Here is a post from Color Team Designer, Mary Johnson that I know you will love. Take it away, Mary!


Mary J popping in to show you a Back To School card I made using the new Sugar Kissed Cottage School Girl from Lil' Inker Designs...

 

 

Isn't she pretty?  I love this little sweetie!  I matched her up with October Afternoon papers and used an EK Success border punch. Don’t ask where I got that star ribbon – it’s just been sitting in my stash for years!

Okay, that's it from me today - thanks for visiting and see you soon!

 

Thanks for the Lift - by Emily Leiphart

Good morning! Here is a fantastic post from our fabby designer, Emily Leiphart, using our brand new Sea Turtle set from our 2 Cute Ink line. I know you'll love it!

Take it away, Em!

Have you seen the six amazing new stamp sets available for purchase at Lil' Inker Designs? We've added three stamp sets by 2 Cute Ink and introduced three more in a new line called The Sugar Kissed Cottage.

I wasn't able to participate in the Color Team Hop last week so I'm showcasing the 2 Cute Ink Sea Turtle stamp set today. This card uses three of the eight stamps in this set along with a dotted outline stamp and curly label die from Flags & Tags.

When my son saw this stamp set, he exclaimed, "It's Sandy sea turtle and a crab!" Sandy is one of the characters in one of his favourite shows, The Octonauts. He hasn't stamped with it yet, but when he does I'll be sure to share it with you! I stamped and fussy cut the cuties, created the label and stamped it again on the label so I wouldn't have to trim out the skinny little crab arms and tufts of hair on the turtle's head. ;)

Here's the Sea Turtle stamp set in its entirety. If you'd like to purchase this stamp set, simply click on the graphic below.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! If you didn't get a chance to hop with the Lil' Inker Designs Color Team last week, be sure to check out THIS post for a recap of all of the new releases and projects. You will be very tempted to shop!

Color Team New Release Hop Re-Cap

Hi there! It has been a wonderful week filled with so many outstanding projects from our new Color Team Designers! We introduced three new sets from our 2 Cute Ink line. A new line called The Sugar Kissed Cottage and a new graphics designer, Karen Baker. That's a busy week!

Thank you to everyone who placed orders with us this week and left us so much love! You will be rewarded...some of you.....2 of you to be exact! LOL! We'll get to that!

Here is one last look at all of the sets we released this week which are available now in our LID Store.

I know how thrilled you are going to be with these sets when they arrive. We worked so hard to make these the best they can be and they're a very afforable price at only $10 a set as they come jam packed with sentiments which means tons of versatility and useability all in one.

Now, I really love to upload as many designer projects as I can into one post because I think it's just so inspiring to see so many different ideas and ways to use these sets all in one handy place. Here is just about everything our designers and guests made using our new sets.



I am going to hold off until Sunday night at 11: 30 p.m. EST until we draw our winners. You have until then to comment to be entered to win our prizes. Two people will win 2 sets of their choice from this release.

Thank you!! It's been a great first release hop with our new Color Team! Visit us at www.lilinkerdesigns.com for these sets and lots of things we've just restocked like our VERY popular Bow Dies!!

See you SOOOON!! We're coming back in September with more awesomeness from our core designers! WAIT until you see the new goodies!!
