We have a special Guest Designer today - Michelle from
The Card Grotto is a Lil Inkers fan so I asked her to do a guest spot to coincide with the release of new goodies which are in store today. Michelle is using products from earlier releases - some of which are currently out of stock - but restocks were posted from the States on Friday so will be with us, along with lots more new goodies, in a couple of weeks.
Spot On
I have two cards to share with you today, the first uses the new
Spot On stamp set along with the
Stitched Stars dies.
Here is the video showing how I made it:
As you can see, I kept the stamping quite minimal using two stamps from
the
Spot On set. I then ran the panel through my Cuttlebug using the
Stitched Stars dies but embossed these without cutting. I think they
give an added texture and interest to the card. I then finished off with
a few Sprinkles and mounted it to a Citrus Slice card base with foam
tape.
My next card uses the
Spot On stamp set as well but this time I used two
of the spots to create a focal point. I took the solid circle image and
stamped this in the top centre of a white cardstock panel with MFT Blu
Raspberry Ink and then followed up with one of the patterned circles
either side. I stamped the sentiment from the
Modern Mehndi set below in
black ink.
I then took a small heart die and cut this from the centre of the middle
circle. The panel has been popped up with foam tape on to a Robins Egg
card base adding a little white cardstock behind the heart for contrast.
I then finished off the card by using the clear Wink Of Stella brush
pen on the spots and added a small rhinestone in the centre of the
heart.
I would like to say a big thank you to Tara and Make The Day Special for
having me today. The new release from Lil' Inker Designs will be in the
shop today :)
Thanks Michelle - we've loved having you!
