Newton’s Nook – Gift Wrapping

Welcome back everyone! Today is my final entry into the current Inky Paws Challenge with Newton’s Nook. It’s a sketch challenge this time and I’m having a blast with it! These are my absolute favorite type of challenge.

This is the format we are challenged to mimic. I kept things pretty much exact to the sketch this time but used some fun products while doing it.

To make this card I stamped one of the girls from Christmas Trimmings and die cut it, then set it aside. Next, I took a white panel and used champagne mist metallix gel over the Snowfall stencil. Once it was dry I die cut it from the largest of the Framework dies. I glued that panel to a green card base and moved on to the other pieces of the sketch. The green square is popped up with foam squares, the banner glued directly to that and then the pool colored square is popped up as well. Finally the stamped image is popped up with foam squares.

Finishing touches for this card were very simple – just white gel pen accents and then Wink of Stella glitter brush pen on the girl’s hair bow and shoes and the dots on the wrapping paper.

I love the non-traditional colors for this Christmas card. It made me realize that this image really could be used year round for fun birthday cards too!

I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
