Newton’s Nook Reveal Day #2

Well hello everyone, thanks so much for stopping by and spending some time with me! Today is day two of the Newton’s Nook February release week and I know you are going to love today’s reveal as much as I do!

Today we are showcasing the sweet Newton Unwinds stamp and die sets… I just adore how cute the images are and I particularly  love the one of Newton hugging a yarn ball!

I started off my card by stamping my images onto cardstock using Simon Says Stamp Intense Black ink; I then colored everything with Copic markers.  The colors I have used are listed below:

• Cat: T0, T2, T4, T6, T8, T10, RV000, RV10

• Pink Yarn: RV10, RV23, RV13

• Green Yarn: YG0000, YG01, YG03

• Purple Yarn: RV52, RV63, V15, V12

Once I colored all the images, I added a few details using a while gel pen and then die cut each one out using the coordinating die set.

To put my card together, I first took a white A2 card base and watercolored some light grey stripes using a round paint brush. I chose to use cardstock instead of watercolor paper for this card because I enjoy the different type of texture the cardstock provides… always nice to change things up sometimes! :)

I then layered a rectangle panel up with some black cardstock that I die cut from a Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Border die set. I layered my images onto the panel and added some shading underneath using a few of the same light grey markers I colored the cat with.

My sentiment is from the Darling Duos set, which I stamped onto a thin white piece of cardstock and then trimmed into a banner. Finally, I finished things off with a bit of Wink of Stella glitter and some die cut hearts (from the Newton’s Naptime die set).
