Lil' Inker Designs March Release

Woohoo! I have been busy creating with all the new March Release products from Lil' Inker Designs. It's a fabulous release and you are going to fall in love with all the sweet Easter and Spring stamps and dies. I did! 


I couldn't decide which cards I wanted to share first, but I think I have to start with the amazing new So Prickly Cactus dies. Oh.EM. GEE!  We were super giddy when Laura told us she was adding dies to match the So Prickly stamp set (previously released). The detail on these dies are so fantastic. You will need them. I created two cards with the dies, this first one uses a sentiment from the So Prickly stamp set.


 I created a pretty water colored background and added a trio of succulents over top of a few stamped Tribal Chic patterns. I added some sparkle with a few clear sequins. 



If you follow me on Instagram (if you don't, come find me @lisahenke) then you saw I posted a picture of my desk filled with a huge pile of glorious succulents. :) I put more of the cactus onto another card, this time with the new So Very Kind die. I cut a Silly Stitched Square with some white card stock and then centered the So Very Kind die to cut out the awesome framed focal point. I popped up the whole frame to create a shadow box effect. 


This time I added a pop of color with the florals from the So Prickly Cactus dies. In the background I used some previously released So Prickly 6x6 Papers


Laura is so generous....be sure to leave comments along the hop for a chance to WIN!
