Let's get on with today's projects! They are both very Clean & Simple today.
First up, a card for mom. I die cut that beautiful "mom" out of patterned paper and die cut the heart out of glitter paper and popped it up. I don't know about you, but recently when I was trying to find appropriate supplies to use on a card for Mother's Day I was at a total lost. I just didn't have many "mom" items. I LOVE that this die (and the dad die that is also being released this month) fills a void in my stamping/scrapping supplies. And the font that this die features with the fantastic heart in the center...LOVE!
The scroll stamp is included in the new Mom & Dad stamp set which features sentiments perfect for so many occasions honoring your mom & dad. I also LOVE that these dies are less formal than the traditional Mother & Father sentiments that you often see. They are more intimate to me.
And now, a card to honor dad. Do you struggle with masculine cards? Well, I have to say that this die makes it so much easier to create a card for dads!
I die cut the Dad (don't you love that the "a" in dad is the "@" symbol!) with orange card stock. That "Super Star" wood bubble has been stamped twice with one of the frames in the Flags & Tags Stamp set. I stamped the frame directly onto the wood first in orange ink and then moved the stamp over to stamp the Hawaiian Shores color. I also impressed the card base with a striped impression plate to give it some extra texture.
Let's take a look at the products being showcased today.
They are all available in the Lil' Inker Designs store now! So, hurry on over! These are PERFECT for Mother & Father's day that are just around the corner!
