Lil' Inker Color Team New Release Hop {Day 1}

Hello everyone! Welcome to the 2 Cute Ink by Lil' Inker Designs August Release Blog Hop!! I'm so excited to share the release of our new 2 Cute Ink and The Sugar Kissed Cottage stamps. You should've come from Alyssa Scritchfield's blog, if you didn't, please start over at the Laura Pryor's Blog.

 

Today, I am featuring one of the three brand new 2 Cute Ink stamp sets. This cool turtle and his crabby friend are brilliant together and the sentiments are just perfect fit !



I created a wall hanging for you to show how versatile these stamps can be. I'm going to hang this in my daughter's room 'cause her eyes lit up when she saw this. I colored the image and the scene with Distress Inks using pearl water. I used some crafty sand for the ocean base, it has got some glitter particles, which look fabulous. The underwater foliage in 2 size along with some water waves are just perfect to create an underwater scene :)

The side view for the dimensional effect




Oh!!! Did you notice Mr. Turtles Glasses??? I used some glossy accents over them.


The full set looks like this and if you click on the graphics, it will take you to the store. These sets are all available from today.


Now, hop over to  Judith Gowdy's blog for more inspiration. Remember to leave comments on all the blogs while hopping as there are Mystery Blogs with PRIZES (two 2 Cute Ink stamps of your choice from the new release).
