Newton’s Nook – April Release Day 2

Let’s keep the goodness rolling with more new things from the April Newton’s Nook release!

Floral Delights stamps and dies

I’m not typically a floral person but there is something about these images that I flipped for! I love them and could sit and color them in a million color ways for days on end. Hence, I have two fun projects to share with you today, instead of one.

They were both very simple to put together and fun in their own ways. Let’s start with the card first.

I stamped the images and sentiment on a piece of Bristol smooth paper and watercolored them with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. Once the coloring was done I lightly ink blended blue around the images. Then I splattered watered down ink on the panel and let it dry.

When that was dry, I cut the panel with the largest Basic Frames die and added it to the largest Frames & Tags die with foam tape. To add color to my card base, I took my yellow ink pad direct-to-paper so it left vibrant color and some great texture too. Then I added the images to the card base with foam tape as well.

I couldn’t decide if this would end up being a gift tag or bookmark so I cut two panels, white and yellow, but didn’t glue them together. I inked the yellow with the Sunscape stencil and stamped my sentiment on the upper right. I splattered the panel with some yellow ink for added texture. Then I added the images that were also watercolored with foam squares.

Last, I threaded ribbon through both layers of tags and tied it together with baker’s twine from my stash.
