All About Ampersands {Lil' Inker Designs}

It's Day 2 of the Lil' Inker Designs release! Hop with us and comment along the way, for a chance to win a $15 gift certificate each day! (If you're just starting here, head to the Lil' Inker Designs blog to start at the beginning!)


I have two cards to share with you today, and both feature the new All About Ampersands dies. The first card also shows my favorite product from this entire release - it's the Long and Skinny Rectangles dies. I just see SO many possibilities with this die set! On this card I created a simple striped background. I stamped sentiments from the Sending You stamp set - don't you love the way one new product brings fresh life to a previous product? I love the way this came together. Fresh and clean and bright. 



Next, I used the ampersand die along with the coordinating All About Ampersand stamps to create a fun Valentine card. (That wavy background shape was die-cut from the Border Builders die set. And the hearts are from the Mini Envelopes Dies and Accessories set)


Remember, each day of our three-day hop, there's a $15 gift certificate up for grabs! So, be sure to comment along the way. 

Next up on the hop is Lea Lawson!
Thanks so much for HOPPING by!
