For my first Project I wanted to create a FUN Background for my Card!! So I started by Die Cutting the AWESOME "Cheers" Die randomly on my Card Base!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the Happy Birthday Sentiment from the Set!! I wanted some more Black so I Splattered some Ranger Ink Black Soot Distress Paint!! Then I added some of the Studio Katia Majestic Fusion Sequins and some Tonic Studio Morning Dew Nuvo Drops for the Center of the Sequins!! I added some Reverse Confetti Stone Cardstock to back the "Cheers" Die Cut openings!! I then Stamped and Embossed the Sweet Cocktail Mixer Image and Colored it with Copic Markers!! I added some Spectrum Noir Glitter Pen and then added some Tonic Studio Morning Dew Nuvo Drops!! I used foam tape to add it to a Stitched Scallop Circle and Stitched Circle that I added Ranger Ink Distress Inks too for the Background!! I also added some Spectrum Noir Glitter Pen splatters to the background!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way it turned out!!

 

I Stamped and Embossed the Stowaway Newton Image and Colored it with Copic Markers!! Then Die Cut it out using the coordinating Die Set!! I added some Tonic Studio Morning Dew Nuvo Drops to the Gold Details and the Handles of the Luggage!! Then I Die Cut a Lil' Inker Designs Cover Up Die: Diamond Chevron Die Cut from some Distress Watercolor Paper!! I added some Distress Inks to the Base of the Card and then added some Ranger Ink Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters!! I used a MFT Stamps Stitched Circle from some Kraft Cardstock and a Stitched Banner to White Heat Emboss my Sentiment!!

Newton's Nook Designs May Release ~ A Cozy Day In!! =)

Pin It
This is my Second Post for today!! =) If your looking for my May Essentials by Ellen Pin-Sights Challenge Guest Designer Post Please Scroll Down!!  THANKS =) 

HELLO!!

Welcome back to the last day of the

May Newton's Nook Designs Release Week!!

Today we are showcasing the New

"A Cozy Day In" Stamp Set!! This Set is SO FUN!!

Let's take a look at this AWESOME Set!!

I Just LOVE this SWEET Image and these Sentiments!!

Here's the Card that I've made for today!!

 I wanted to make a FUN Shaker Card and I thought the Fringe Scalloped Rectangle Die Set from Lil' Inker Designs was the PERFECT Fit!! So I created a FUN Frame for my Shaker Card using it in an unexpected way!! I Die Cut the Largest Frame in the Set from some Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Paper and then I took the Next Size Frame and Die Cut the Distress Watercolor Paper again only I Die Cut it from the Back Side so that I could have the DOUBLE Scalloped Border Edge!! SQUEAL!! It just makes me HAPPY and it reminds me of the Border on a Quilt or Rug!?? Next I Stamped and Embossed my Image onto Distress Watercolor Paper!! Then used my Distress Inks to Watercolor my Image!! I know some people (I used to be one of them) are intimidated by Larger Images like these because they are ALWAYS questioning how to Color Images like these using the Right Color Combination!!?? After LOTS of Practice and taking Classes from Online Card Classes, I use the Trick of thinking about the Color Wheel/or just a Rainbow!! It has REALLY HELPED me ALOT!! So for my Image today you can see the Rainbow RIGHT!! All I've done is broke it down the Shirt is my (Red) even though I decided to use Pastel Colors!! The Cats are my (Orange)!! The Chair is my (Yellow)!! I skipped Green and the Blanket is my (Blue) and then the Book is my (Purple)!! SO EASY Right!!??

I hope this helps to make you think about Coloring in your Larger Images with more Confidence and I CAN'T WAIT to see what you CREATE using this SWEET

"A Cozy Day In" Stamp Set!!

THANKZZZZZ Card with Newton's Nook Designs!! =)

Pin It

HELLO and HAPPY FRIDAY!!  =)
I'm up on the Newton's Nook Designs Blog and I have the SWEETEST Thank You Card to share today!! =) I've used the Newly Released Winston's Honeybees Stamp Set along with the Hanging Around Stamp Set!! I wanted to create a Sweet Water Colored Scene and I LOVE the way it turned out!!
  

 I started by Die Cutting a FUN Cloud Shaped Edge using a Lil' Inker Designs Stitched Border Builders Die Set from some Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Paper!! Then in order to get the Stitched Edge all the way around my Cloud Shaped Panel I Die Cut it again using the Lil' Inker Designs Stitched Mats Rectangle Die Set!! I then Stamped and Embossed my Scene onto the Panel!! Then I used my Distress Inks to Water Color the Scene!! Now if you wanted a FUN One Layer Card you could STOP right there!! =)
I just CAN'T STOP though!! LOL!!
So I decided to add Dimension by Stamping and Embossing the Images again and Water Coloring them with the same Distress Ink Water Color washes and Fussy Cutting them out!! I wanted to add some Sparkle and Shine to the Wings of the Bees so I covered them with some Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker and then I coated them with some WoW Clear Embossing Powder!! I did this a Couple Times and SQUEAL!! I just LOVE the way it looks in real life!! =) Then I took my White Gel Pen and added some Highlight Dots to the Bee Bodies and to the Bee Hive !! I used the Black Soot Distress Marker to go around the Edges for a Clean Edge and then I used some Foam Tape to Pop them up off the Card!! A few Pretty Pink Posh Crystal Clear Sequins finishes off my Card!! I hope you feel INSPIRED!!??

Don't FORGET to come back on MONDAY May 16th for the New Newton's Nook Designs May Release Week!! OMG!! You're going to just LOVE LOVE LOVE the New Products!! =)
Also, you have until TONIGHT at Midnight CST to enter the Newton's Nook Designs Inky Paw Challenge #31 for a chance to WIN 1 of 2 $10 Gift Cards to the NND Store!! =)

I Carrot About You with Newton's Nook Designs!! =)

Pin It

HELLO and HAPPY FRIDAY!! =)
I'm here today with a project I've made for the Newton's Nook Designs Blog!! My FIRST post since my Surgery!! YIPPEE!! I've made a FUN Spring themed Card using the bunny, newly named "Lily" from the Hello Spring Stamp Set!! Then I thought she needed a Basket FULL of Carrots that I also Stamped from the Hello Spring Stamp Set!! I placed them in one of the Baskets from the Basket of Wishes Stamp Set!! I used Copic Markers to Color my Images and then added some details using a White Gel Pen and some Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker for some SPARKLE!! =) I used a Lil' Inker Designs Die to created the FUN Design on my MFT Stone Grey Cardstock Base!! Then I also used a Lil' Inker Designs Stitched Rectangle Die to create the Main Panel for my Scene!! I used some Tumbled Glass Distress Ink to Ink round the Edges of the Top of the Stitched Rectangle Die to create the Sky!! I wanted the Panel to POP of the Card Base so I decided to use an Avey Elle Dotted Borders Pinked Edge from some MFT Steel Grey Cardstock!! I just LOVE the way it looks against the Stitched Card Base!! Then I used an MFT Grass Border Die and Die Cut a couple different Green Coordination Cardstocks and Inked the edges with some Ground Espresso Distress Ink to add some Interest!! I Stamped and Embossed my Sentiment on a MFT Banner!! Double Stamping the word Carrot with some Hero Arts Rust Ink to create a Visual Triangle with ALL of the range Images on my Card!! =) I hope you LOVE it as much as I do!!
