Lil' Inker Fall Blog Hop - Day 5


Well hello, it's been a wonderful and inspiring week and I am your second to last stop
(if you are going in order). I've been having a absolute ball with the new
Lil' Inker dies and stamps, today is not to disappoint either. 

Check out this super-darling die and stamp set. No Really, it's is so darn cute!




Project No. 1: a sweet and feminine belated birthday card... perfect for a Autumn birthday.

Double sided patterned paper is perfect, just die cut two acorns and swap out the pieces
I wanted to go a big non-traditional with the colors, while the ivory, twin and brown ink bring the card down to earth
Here is the cuteness... the coordination of the greetings and that sad, sad acorn face. Poor little thing.

Project No. 2: A soft take on Fall

Those tiny leaves were screaming "WREATH!"
How darling are the dashes down the center of the leaves, that detail is in the die! 
Finish off the inside with a tiny leaf... perfect from start to finish!

Thanks for joining in all the fun this week, I sure had a creative blast!
Be sure to make the final stop at the Lil' Inker Store...
