Newton's Nook Designs 3 Year Celebration - Party Pops, Pineapple Delight & Tiki Time


Day two of the Newton's Nook July release brings us to the tropics!  I've got lots to show you today, so let's get started!  


Confession - this may be my favorite card of the whole release - and it's definitely the simplest!   I stamped the popsicle in a semi-circle using my MISTI tool to ensure super coverage.   The sticks lined up providing the perfect place for the heat embossed sentiment!


I thought this was perfect as is, so I didn't add any further embellishment.   I just mounted the panel onto some black cardstock to make the sentiment POP!

Next up we have Pineapple Delight!   


I stamped a variety of the pineapples included in this set with Memento Luxe pigment inks on kraft cardstock and heat embossed them with clear powder.  


I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment with gold powder onto a torn vellum strip.   A few gold sequins finished off the card!  

For my final card today, we have Tiki Time!


I began by inking the BACK SIDE of the tiki cups and stamping them to get a nice solid impression.   I then flipped the stamp to the correct side and inked over the top of my solid impression with brown ink.   I stamped and die cut the tiki cups and a variety of straws and umbrellas and added them to a strip of patterned paper.   The sentiment was stamped on a banner flag and added to the bottom right.   I love the font included in this set!!

I hope you've enjoyed my cards today - be sure to stop back tomorrow for some more tropical inspiration!!

  11. Love the pineapple card, love the tiki card, but that popsicle card is my fave too! Fabulous job on all of them! Love the bold colors you used on the popsicles and the sentiment in the middle! Love the way the popsicles overlap, and I can see that the MISTI would be a great help in stamping to get such great coverage!
