HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!! 

I'm here today to share a Card I've made using the Tea-Rex Stamp Set!! It's one of my FAVOIRTES on the Newton's Nook Designs Retiring Products List!! 
Here's a look at the Tea-Rex Stamp Set!!

 Here's the Card I've created for today!! 

I Started by Stamping and Embossing the Tea-Rex Image all over my Card Panel using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! 

Then I Colored the entire Card Panel with Copic Markers!! 
T-Rex: YG61, YG67, G18   E81 & E84    Cheeks: R11    

Mug: YR00, YR18 & YR68   Coffee: E31, E37

Background: BG000, BG11 & BG45
Then I added some White Gel Pen details and some Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters!! 

I Die Cut a Scalloped Rectangle from some Black Cardstock using the Frames & Flags Die Set and then adhered the Card Panel to it using some Ultra Bond Adhesive!! I adhered the Scalloped Rectangle to my Cardbase using some Foam Tape for some dimension!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the "Best Wishes" Sentiment from the Floral Roundabout Stamp Set onto a Banner Trio Die Cut from some Kraft Cardstock using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! 

I added a few Orange Pearls for some SPARKLE and I LOVE the way it finishes off the Card Design!! 

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by and I hope you have a FABULOUS WEEKEND!!

Thinking of You Card w/ Newton's Nook Designs & Therm O Web!!

Pin It

This week Newton's Nook Designs and Therm O Web are partnering for a FABULOUS Inspiration Week!! ALL Week Long both Design Teams will be sharing ways to add fun foils and more to your cards using Therm O Web Products with Newton's Nook Designs Products!! There are PRIZES too!! Read all the way to the end of this post to find out how you can WIN!!  

Today I'm sharing a BEAUTIFUL Thinking of You Card!!

I Started by Spraying the Backside of the NND Seashell Stencil with Pixie Spray!! I LOVE this product and it really makes Stenciling EASY!! 

Then I placed the Stencil over my Card Panel and pressed it into place!! Then I applied a Thin Coat of Deco Foil Transfer Gel Duo using the Stencil Pal!! I've tried LOTS of different tools to apply the Transfer Gel Duo and my hands down FAVORITE is the Stencil Pal!! BONUS, you get 2 in a Pack!! 

I set the Panel aside to Dry completely!! Once completely Dry the Gel will be CLEAR and Tacky to the touch!! Then I cut a Piece of Deco Foil in Opal large enough to cover my Panel and ran it through my Laminating Machine!! (You can use your Die Cutting Machine too, I just prefer the results I get with the Laminator!!) To finish off the Card Panel I added some Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters!! 

Next I Stamped and Embossed my Images from the Narly Mermaids Stamp Set!! I Stamped with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossed with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! I used Copic Markers to Color in the Image: 

Purple: V000, V01, V15 & V09   Cheeks: RV11  

Turquoise: BG11, BG45 & BG49  Skin: E00, E11 & E13 
Hair: E31, E33, E37 & E99  Starfish: R00 & R22   

Fish: YR00, YR18  N0 & N4

Then I used the coordinating Narly Mermaids to Die Cut the Images out!! I added White Gel Pen Details and some Nuvo Gold Glitter Drops to the Narwhales Horn to add some Highlights and Sparkle!! 

For my Focal Point Scene I Die Cut a Large Scalloped Circle using the NND Circle Frames Die Set from some TE Sprinkles Cardstock and then Die Cut a Large Circle from some White Cardstock and Inked it with Peacock Distress Oxide Ink!! I added some Water Splatters for some texture, then I stamped and embossed the "Thinking of You" Sentiment from the NND Little Lilies Stamp Set!! I Stamped with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossed with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! 

I adhered the Images to the Scallop Circle Scene and placed it onto the Card Panel using some Gina K Designs Foam Tape!! Then I adhered some Sequins and Jewels using Bling Zots Adhesive Dots!! I then wanted to create a coordinating Envelope!! I'm using a TE A2 Envelope in Sprinkles and then placed the NND Seashell Stencil over the Flap of the Envelope and pressed it into place!! Then Inked with Peacock Distress Oxide Ink!! SQUEAL!! I LOVE the results and it's FUN to add that Little Extra Touch to make the Card seem even more SPECIAL for the recipient!! 

I hope I've INSPIRED you today on ways to use the NND & Therm O Web Products together!! I hope you'll join us ALL Week for even more inspiration and for chances to WIN!! 

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today and hope you have a FABULOUS WEEK!!

Found on Pinterest

Hello!!
Welcome to the Second Day of the Newton's Nook Designs May Release!! I'm in LOVE with this Months Release and today we are show casing the New “Vegetable Medley” Stamp Set!!

I went on Pinterest to look for some FUN Color Inspiration!! I came across the Photo above and KNEW this was the direction I wanted to go!! I wanted to make a Shaker Card and I LOVE the way it turned out!! =) I Stamped and Embossed the Images using WOW Clear Detail Embossing Powder onto some Distress Water Color Paper!! I then used my Distress Markers to Water Color ALL of the Images!! I then Created a Circle Window using a MFT Circle Die onto a Piece of MFT Smooth White Cardstock!! I Stamped and Embossed my Sentiment using the same WOW Clear Detail Embossing Powder and then Stamped the Heart using some Distress Marker Water Color!!  outlined the Heart using a .3mm Copic Liner Marker and then added some Foam Tape to create a Window Shaker!! I used SEVERAL different Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh, Neat & Tangled and Simon Says Stamp!! I added it to a Kraft Card Base and my Shaker Card was done!! =)

For my Second Projects today I thought it would be SO FUN to create some FUN GardenWands/Stakes!! I LOVE to give Garden Seeds for May Day or even just because, and I though these would be a FUN way to do that!! I die cut a FUN Pencil Topper Label Card using a Die from Taylored Expressions!! I die cut it s the top wouldn't cut all the way and it would create a Folded Card!! I LOVE that this die has the space for whatever you want to add for the Stick/Base!! I used some Decorative Straws!! =) Then I die cut some Small Stitched Circles using a WPlus9 Die from some Distress Water Color Paper!! I Stamped and Embossed the Images and then used my Distress Markers to Water Color them!! =) I added them to the Folded Bases and added the Decorative Straws!! Then I tied on some Tulle Ribbon and some May Arts Burlap Twine Ribbon and a Few Buttons and my Garden Wands/Stakes are finished to give however you choose!! =) SQUEAL!! These just make me HAPPY!!  =)
