Lil' Inker Designs Bows

Hello!! I am so happy to be here with another new release from Lil' Inker Designs!  This is going to be a fun, knock-your-socks-off release!

For today & tomorrow the design team will be showcasing two fabulous new bow dies that are hot, hot, hot!  You are going to love them and want them for your collection!

I have lots of projects to share with you today so hang with me!


First up is a card using the small bow.  I stitched the patterned paper panels in place and added the paper bow on top.  There just may be something else on this card that is new, but you will see more of that later on this week!   :)


Isn't the bow adorable?  Can you just imagine all of the ways you could dress up your projects using these dies?


Speaking of dressing up...how about using those bows to embellish your child's clothing?


 I used the large bow on my daughter's dress.  I die cut it with fabric and added a button in the center.  


I also made her matching shoes which turned out super cute as well!


I used the smallest bow for the shoes.  I die cut the fabric again and used fabric glue to hold the bow together.  Then, I used an embellishment I found at my local craft store for the center of the bow.  I sewed the bow on with a needle & thread.  So fast.  So easy.  So cute.


Now to take a totally different direction with these bows that I just love!  When I was die cutting my bows I thought that they looked amazingly like mustaches that are so trendy right now, so I put them on a stick to use as photo props!  Aren't they so stinkin' cute?


Here is the "male" version that my son is proudly modeling.  


And here is the "feminine" version that my daughter is showing off.  When I told her what I was going to do with these, she insisted that her mustached be PINK!  I think it looks pretty cute in pink! LOL!

I'll share more on the mustache idea later on this week!

Want to see what the dies look like?  Here you go!



Cute, huh?  Isn't this product so fun and unique!?  I LOVE it!! I have so many ideas running around in my head for ways to use these!!  And, they are available in the store RIGHT NOW!  I have a feeling that these are going to fly off the shelves!! Of course we have several more new products that you are going to love later on in the week too! I'll be back with Lil' Inker Designs posts on Wednesday & Friday too!  

And as always, there is a giveaway!  Be sure to leave comments on all the designer blogs for your chance to win a $10 gift certificate for the Lil' Inker Designs store and product from this month's release!   

Your next stop on the hop is to Jen's blog!  I can't wait to see what she has to share!

LOVE the fabric bows--always like it when crafting tools can be used for more than one medium. Makes the acquisition easier to justify! Your projects are darling! (and your kids are cute, too!).
