Newton’s Nook – February Release Day 2

Card tutorial 2 Minutes

Oh, I can hardly stand the absolutely adorable things we have to share with you for day 2 of Newton’s Nook February Release reveals! They are quickly becoming some of my favorites. I want to put bunnies on everything! Let’s get started!

Hoppy Greetings

Hare Mail

I have 2 more adorable cards to share with you today before we get to the giveaway details. I hope you enjoy them!

I had this little scene in my head as soon as I saw this sweet bunny so I started stamping and color straight away with my copic markers. Then I used the coordinating dies to cut everything out. Working on the background, I blended twisted citron, scattered straw and salty ocean distress oxide inks on a panel and spritzed them with water. I trimmed the panel down to 5.5×4 inches and added foam tape to the back.

I pulled out the sky scene builder dies and cut some clouds and a sun. I used copic markers to color them. Then I die cut a fence border out of kraft cardstock and added shading with copic markers as well. I used liquid glue to adhere all of this to my ink blended panel and moved on to attach my images with a combination of foam squares and liquid glue.

I adhered the panel to a white card base and popped it in my MISTI to stamp a sentiment on the bottom. For finishing touches on this sweet card, I added Wink of Stella glitter brush pen to the sky and glossy accents to the bunny’s nose and feet, flower centers and parts of the Easter eggs.

Isn’t this Hare Mail image just the absolute cutest? I’m always obsessed with the mini sets. They’re so fun and I love getting extra creative with ways to use them. Today, I stamped the postmark image all over a gray panel and heat embossed it in silver. Then I die cut the panel from the Framework die and moved on to my cute bunnies! I stamped the image 3 times and colored them with my copic markers, using the coordinating dies to cut them all out. I stamped the sentiment and trimmed it into a strip. Adding foam squares to the back of everything I popped it in place. Then I put foam tape on the back of the panel and added it to the front of a white card base.

For finishing touches on this card, I just added glossy accents to the bunny noses. I love the shine the embossing powder gives the background.
