Announcing a Design Team Call and Some Pre-Release Sneak Peeks

Well, hello there!

Our next release here at Lil' Inker Designs is not until November 18th, but I thought it would be fun to do something a little bit different this time around. I thought we could share some sneak peek projects this week before our official release on on the 18th!

Let's get right to it!

We wanted to design a Cover Up Die for you with an organic feel - something that isn't based on a geometric shape or repeating pattern. Being that I was designing products for release during the Fall this is what we arrived at! We call it Cover Up Die: Leaf Pattern!






Our brand new Cover Up Die: Leaf Pattern will be available for purchase on November 18th! 

Teaser - This die's negative cuts feature our signature stitching detail!


Ok, and here is one more sneak peek for you. 

YES, you can FINALLY breathe a sigh of relief!!! Your wait for Stitched Mats: Ovals IS OVER!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you to you all for waiting so patiently, LOL!!



We'll see you tomorrow with another Pre-Release Sneak Peek!

  5. Sneek peaks have me amped up with excitement (and maybe for a change I'll pay CLOSE attention to when they're ready to purchase!). As for new DT members: what a great opportunity for the abundance of talented crafters out there! Excited to see who will win this honour!

  8. Gee! I was so disappointed when I got to the part about having to live in the USA
    This is such a shame!
    Other companies allow and welcome international designers on their teams.
    :(
