Newton's Summer Treats

Hello, it feels like it's been a while since I've posted a NND card, but that's just how the schedule has gone.  I was thinking about all my wonderful Newton stamp and die sets and wondering what I should create with this week?  

I'll admit, I'm starting to think about Fall, how about you?  I'm looking forward to breaking out all my harvest style papers!  And here's a little *hint*, next month NND is coming out with some really cute fall sets!  So stay tuned!

For now though, we are still in the throes of summer here in South Carolina.  Omgoodness it is SO HOT!  And what better way to cool off than with some ice cream?  Does that cone Newton is holding not look de-lish??

So I started with a A2 sized piece of navy blue cardstock and using my NND Confetti Stencil, I smeared Nuvo Glitter Paste in Tanzanite all over the cardfront.  I quickly clean my stencil when I use this product, or it will NEVER come off!  After sufficiently letting it dry, overnight as in my case, I die cut the center using a round die.  I mounted my diecut panel over some light blue card stock.  I cut a banner from the Flags and Frames set with black cardstock.  I then heat embossed the sentiment with VersaMark and white EP by Judikins.

I foam mounted the banner and Newton over the light blue cut out area and my card was complete!

Well, I hope you've enjoyed my card and I would love to hear from you in the comments section!  Have a great weekend everyone!

Newton's Nook Designs March Release - Day 3

Hello and welcome to day 3 of the Newton's Nook Designs March release!  Oh my goodness, I am in LOVE with this set. Newton's Birthday Balloons! It's a really fun image to color and I love the little puffy clouds.  I promise you, this is a birthday set you'll reach for over and over again!

I made 2 cards using this set today.  The first, I inked up the background in a vibrant turquoise color, then I used the Bubbly Stencil with a tiny bit of light lime green and then over the top with some white pigment ink.  I just think this background turned out fun!  I copic colored Newton and popped him up with foam against the sky and added a few little clouds and hearts.  The sentiment is from Uplifting Wishes which was a set in yesterday's reveal!

Here's my second card in a different color scheme.  I used the Confetti Stencil on my background which I love the look of.  It matches my polka dot paper, such a fun way to tie the project together!
