Oh my goodness friends! I hope you loved the release reveals for this year’s amazing birthday release for Newton’s Nook! Aren’t all of these products amazing!?! I am in love with each one! We’re not done giving things away though. So, today we have bonus inspiration and another chance to win at the bottom of this post too.
For my extra card share today, I have combined a ton of the release to create another super fun and adorable birthday card to share with you!

For this card, I inked up a white panel with distress oxide ink in black soot and hickory smoke. I was going to a bit of a chalkboard vibe today. Then I stamped and heat embossed the Birthday Oval image on that and used the coordinating Oval Frame die to cut it out. Then I used distress oxide ink and watercolored some of the balloons orange.

I stamped and colored one of the Birthday Mice images and used the coordinating dies to cut it out next. I stamped a sentiment from Birthday Roundabout on a rounded banner from the Banner Trio dies. I added the image and sentiment to the oval with foam squares and added foam tape to the back of the oval too.

I was going to add the oval to a solid piece of cardstock but thought it would be fun to kick up the celebration level a bit with patterned paper from the new paper pad. I added the whole thing to an A2 card base with liquid glue.
For finishing touches I came in with glossy accents and white gel pen accents to the image. Then finished the design off with some wrapped twine around the left side of the card.
