Day 3 of the Lil' Inker Designs new release hop!

It's the last day of the new Lil' Inker Designs release showcasing new stamp sets and matching dies with a blog hop!  Here is my card using the new Circles and Diamonds stamp set that works with the matching Circles and Diamonds stitched die and the Connected Circle die...


I love how this came out - it's quite a different style for me!  I used various VersaMagic inks and my ColorBox Frost White ink.  I also used the Stitched Square Mat for the layering and teeny tiny heart and flat backed iridescent pearls randomly so it didn't look too flat.  I used Sahlin Studio papers for the card base.  I am entering my card into the Simon Says Stamp anything goes challenge.



Back to the hop - make sure you comment as you hop long - the more you comment, the better your chance of winning!  We'll be giving away prizes for two $10 store credits!.  You should have come here from sweet Jen Carter and you now need to hop off to the lovely Jen del Muro.  You'll then want to pop off to the store here to see all of the new goodies!

    Hello Mary
    The Kraft card juxtaposes perfectly with your circle design, it could fall under the CAS genre, which surprises me as it is not what we expect from you, but then your artistic talent is so broad that you can cover most genres and produce spectacular work.
    I really like this.
    Smiles:)

    This is so sharp! I love the way you used kraft paper as your mat. I tend to use it as a base. The chunky cursive font on the sentiment is fabulous too!

    Love how you made your own paper-quilted "sampler" with the different circle centres. Lots of texture and interest going on with this card, despite being simple.
