Newton's Nook Designs Holiday Release - Sun Soaked Christmas!

Hello there!    Today begins Newton's Nook Designs' holiday release, and we are starting with a super fun tropical themed Christmas set!   

Sun Soaked Christmas card by Kimberly Rendino | tropical | handmade card | holiday | ink blending | distress ink | palm trees | kimpletekreativity,blogspot.com | newton's nook designs

I created a background using Distress Inks, and stamped the little palm tree scene right on top - no masking involved.   I chose to Copic color my images a little more muted than I'd normally choose to do, to go with the soft background, and I love the effect!    I added the white with my Dylusions white paint pen, heat embossed the sentiment, and added the panel offset  onto a card base I embossed with an embossing folder.
