Hello!!

I've made several Projects to share for today!! =) First a One Layer Card!! I just LOVE the way it turned out!! =) I was Inspired by this Picture on Pinterest!!

So I knew I just had to create a Card that had a Similar Scene!! =) I had to use SEVERAL Masks and I stamped it out about 4 Times on Practice Paper before I got the Design/Layout just Right!! It was SO WORTH the Effort though!! I used the New Dies to Die Cut the Paper Scroll Image and used it for my Sentiment!! I also added a FUN Burlap Twine Stitched Border around the Edge and I really LOVE the Texture it adds without any Bulk!!

My Next Card is a Shaker Card and I had FUN using Shrink Plastic to create some Little Shaker Charms!! SQUEAL!! I LOVE having the Coordinating Dies!! =) I Stamped and Embossed my Images on Distress Watercolor Paper and used my Distress Markers to Water Color them!! I Stamped 3 Waves from the Shark Bite Stamp Set and Fussy Cut Them!! One from Distress Water Color Paper and 2 from Vellum!! I added the Vellum Waves infront of the Acetate on the Window and I LOVE the Look!! Hope you'll give these Shrink Plastic Charms a Try!

My Last Project is a Bracelet!!

I've used Shrink Plastic and Die Cut a Large Stitched Rectangle using a Lil' Inker Designs Die and then I Stamped and Masked the Images the same way I did on my First Card!! SQUEAL!! It was SO FUN watching it Shrink Down!! While it was cooling I shaped it on my Wrist and then used Copic Markers to color it in!! I found out that if you used the AMAZING MFT Hybrid Ink which is good for Copic Coloring you can color with your Copic Markers once the Image is Dry and Shrinked and it doesn't harm your Image or your Copics!! AWESOME!! =)

Hello!!
Today we are showcasing the Newton's Nook Designs July Release with the New Set called "Summer Scoops"!! SQUEAL!! Just look at these Sweet Images!! =)

I started by Die Cutting a Pinpoint Scalloped Circle from Memory Box in Pink and then Layering it with a MFT Pierced Circle Die Cut in Red Cardstock and Distress Water Color Cardstock!! I then Stamped and Embossed my Image on Distress Water Color Paper and Water Colored it with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers!! I then used Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass to create a FUN Highlight onto my Pierced Circle Die Cut and added the Fussy Cut Image along with some Clear Crystal Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh!! I Die Cut a Banner also from MFT!! I Stamped and Embossed my Sentiment and added a Few Sprinkles from the Set!! I used Foam Tape and added it to my Card Base that I Die Cut using the Double Pierced Rectangle Die Set from Avery Elle!! =)

My second Card I used the FUN Burst Die from Avery Elle for my Card Front!! I used a MFT Pierced Circle Die Cut to create the Shaker Window and then used the SSS Birthday Circle Die for a FUN touch to add to the Sentiment!! I LOVE the way it looks!! Then I used some Sprinkles from PTI along with some Heart and Clear Crystal Sequins!! I used the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then Tumbled Glass Distress Ink for the Back of the Circle!!
