Newton's Nook Designs Inky Paws Challenge #27 - Kraft & Sparkle

Hi friends!    Today marks the start of the latest Inky Paws Challenge over at Newton's Nook Designs.   I hope you'll take part!  

I thought the combination of gold & kraft paper would make an amazing New Year's card, and the combination of the new Simply Seasonal stamp set and the old favorite Years of Cheers stamp set was the perfect match-up!  I embossed the numbers count-down style along the left edge, and added separation with strips of thin washi tape.   The champagne flutes were colored in with a gold Wink of Stella glitter pen and I used Glossy Accents to highlight the bubbles.   A little gray Copic coloring along the edges grounded the flutes just enough.   

Make sure to stop by the Newton's Nook blog to find out how to enter the challenge - you could win a gift card to their online store!   Can't wait to see what you create!
