Newton’s Nook Winter Release – Day 2

Card tutorial 2 Minutes

Welcome to day 2 of Newton’s Nook Winter Release reveals! Eeeekkk!! So much fun in store to share with you today! I just love it! Today we’re sharing:

Snowfall Roundabout

These roundabout stamps are so much fun to create with! They make great backgrounds and focal points alike. They’re super versatile and the different themes are so much fun! I love all of these snowflakes and the sentiments are perfect too!

I decided to make a slimline card for today’s card. I started by inking my panel up with distress inks in chipped sapphire, blueprint sketch and salty ocean. Then I spritzed it with water and flicked pearl watercolor all over it. I am impatient so I hit it with my heat tool to help it dry. Then I put the panel in my MISTI and placed the stamp in the center. I stamped it with VersaMark ink and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. Then I moved it over and stamped each side too. Once those were done I trimmed the panel down to 3×8.

Next, I pulled out the new Dear Santa set, stamped one of the images and colored him with my copics. I used the coordinating dies to cut him out and moved on to my sentiment. I die cut one of the Banner Trio banners and stamped two sentiments from the Snowfall Roundabout together. The inked panel is popped up on a white card base with foam tape and then the image and banner are popped up on that.

For finishing touches on my card, I added glossy accents to Santa’s gloves and boots and white gel pen accents on other parts of the image. Then I finished the whole design off with a scattering of gems from my stash to add a little sparkle to those beautiful snowflakes.
