Swirling Around with Lil' Inker Designs

Welcome to another Lil' Inker Designs release!! There are some products that you're going to LOVE in this release that I'm excited to share with you!

The wind has been blowing HARD today here in Kansas and the leaves are swirling around all over the place!  It seems like the perfect time to introduce a new LID Cover Up Die to you called  Cover Up Die: Swirls.

If you are following along in the blog hop, you should have come from our guest desinger's blog Tracey McNeely! If you'd like to start at the beginning of the hop, visit Laura's blog

You are a Blessing


I love the options that are available with this die!  I chose to paper piece the cover up die this time using a combination of cardstock and patterned paper.  That sentiment is from a new stamp set called Modern Mehndi.  I used the previously released Folding Tag Die: Original for the tag and impressed part of a circle from Stitched Mats: Circles into the tag to create a place for the sentiment.  I just think that this cover up die is so original and fun!




Thank you so much for joining me today!  Don't forget to leave a comment for your chance to win a great prize from the LID store!  Your next stop on the hop is over to Karen's blog!

    I've been dying to see what you would do with the swirl cover and wow...this is beautiful Jen. I love that you used some pattern paper mixed with some cardstock in neutral colors and that strip of vellum. There are so many great elements on this card...that subtle circle embossing, and the little enamel dots. So many people will want to CASE this card, me included!

    Jen, this is one amazing card! So amazing that when I saw it in our team gallery I ran to my craft desk as I was inspired to try what you did with paper piecing with this die! In fact, my card will post tomorrow with credits to you for the inspiration! What an array of goodness you have going on here! Love this!!
