Welcome to {Day 1} of the Lil' Inker Designs November Release Blog Hop! You should've come from Amy Kolling's blog but, if not, be sure to start at Laura Pryor's blog for all the details. Today, the core team is showcasing the Instant Camera: Die & Christmas Stamp Set as well as the Gift Bow Topper Die, and the colour team is featuring Dear Santa by Sugar Kissed Cottage.

First, I made a card using the Instant Camera Die as a frame for the tree from Holly Jolly. The ruffled and stitched 'ribbon' is the stem of the Gift Bow Topper Die. The banner with the sentiment is the largest die from Flags & Tags. I sponged the edges of the card to give it a nostalgic holiday feel.

For my tag, I used the Gift Bow Topper Die to 'wrap' the Instant Camera Die and create a gift tag. I added a small round tag for the sentiment. The 25 was stamped on to the largest berry die from Holly Jolly.

Gorgeous cards Emily!
TFS~
Looks like fun, impressed with all the paper in your first card, way to break out of the CAS mold.
These are fantastic! Love the colours, patterns and textures. Great work!
Love all the papers you've mixed and matched on your card! That wood grain is awesome as the frame for the darling tree! You are always so creative when using the dies....ie. the stitched paper under the tree!
oh wow!!! That wooden "panel" is a cool visual Emily!!! Love it!!!
Gorgeous cards Emily!! So loving this frame!!
These are fun Emily, I especially love the tag and how your 'wrapped' it with the bow :)
I love all the layers in the first card - the banner with the sentiment is gorgeous, and I love that the flag ends come up a little. Awesome dimension! The second card - the detail of the bow is fabulous (love it in plaid!) and the way you created the tag - love the 'berry' and the font of that Noel. So pretty!
Two awesome cards! I love that sweet present!
