Lil' Inker Designs: June New Release Hop Day 2

Well, hello there! Thanks so much for coming to visit us today! Today is day 2 of our June New Release Hop and we're just so thrilled that you're loving all of our brand new goodies! And thank you so much for all the warm welcomes for our new designers and sweet sentiments for Suzanne!

I'd like to get right to the goods today and recap the products that we're releasing and then share some new projects with you!

Up first we have three, brand new, DELICIOUS word dies which might just be some of my favorite dies ever! The words are done in a trendy yet timeless font and the best thing about these is their size. They're BOLD enough to stand on their own but won't over-power your cards either. They are quite literally perfect! Here are links to Hello, Smile and Thanks

This next die is just sooooo very cool! It will cut a smattering of gorgeous, paper sequins each scored to look just like a real sequin. What's even cooler is that this die does double duty! Around the holes where the sequins are cut from is our signature stitching detail. This makes the neatest stitched polka dot background which can be used in so many ways. And because of the way this die is designed the polka dots can be cut into your A2 card base either vertically OR horizontally. This is one terrific little die! I love being able to cut sequins in any color I want! YESS!!!

Next up are our new Peek-a-Boo Die and Unscramble This Stamp Set! These goodies are AWESOME together but can be used separately as well. I just love that the stamps are such a unique take on expressing a traditional greeting and when used with our new Peek-a-Boo Die an interactive and fun element is added that would make anyone smile! Loving this set!!!!!!

I think our Two Thumbs Set is pretty darn hilarious! If you used this set for a teen boy card your level of coolness will skyrocket! It's fun and funny but can easily be masculine or feminine. Katie Vaz drew each of these sentiments by hand and then made them into computerized stamp art and I just love their modern and fun look. Who has two thumbs and loves this stamp set? (Points to self) THIS GAL!!

Last but definitely NOT LEAST.....SWOON! I love love love our new Puzzle Pieces Die Set and Piece of Me Stamps!!!! This stamp set came out so stinkin' cute! I love the sentiments and their font, the little faces - they're so tiny yet so expressive somehow and I love the sweet design of the puzzle pieces! I also really love that I can use these sweet little faces and sentiments with EITHER my puzzle stamps OR die cuts. The dies are AWESOME! We purposely wired them together in this way so that all four can be cut leaving a neat and tidy negative. These are such fun goodies!

Would you like to see my projects for today?

I made this using our new Puzzle Pieces Die Set and Piece of Me Stamps. I love how this turned out! The stitched stripe on the side there is a piece cut from a Stitched Rectangle. I love this decorative paper from SU and its colors! Fun stuff!

Here's a card I made using our new Peek-a-Boo Die and Unscramble This Stamp Set and even features our Scattered Sequins Die. I was going for a more eclectic look with this card and I used primarily ALL scraps. I have this little bin that I keep all of my unused die cuts in where I found these Stitched Stars and I just happened to have some coordinating washi. I added a hint of blue in the button which I then repeated underneath my Peek-a-Boo where I revealed my unscrambled riddle which you can see in the photo below.

Gosh, I love this little set!
