Hi there, crafty friends! I'm super excited to be joining the Newton's Nook design team and special guests for the 5 Year Celebration Blog Hop! I thoroughly enjoyed my time as a NND design team member, and I was thrilled Jen asked me to be a part of their 5th year celebratory blog hop! Now - on to my projects!
First up, a card using a brand new stencil and one of my all-time favorite NND sets, Tranquil Tides. I started by inking a square panel of Yupo paper with shades of turquoise, blue and purple alcohol inks. Next, I used the brand new Tropical Fish Stencil and spread on some metallic embossing paste. After allowing that to dry a bit, I added a shaker element with a vellum window. A tropical fish & piece of coral stamped, heat embossed and die cut from Tranquil Tides finished off this card!
Next up is a card using the super fun new Shark Frenzy stamp set! I created a card fit for a dapper dude by first adhering three shades of grey cardstock to a thin piece of white paper. I stamped and heat embossed the sharks on this piece. I fussy cut a little bow tie for one of the sharks to go along with the funny sentiment!
I hope you've been enjoying the hop! Details on how to win one of FIVE fabulous prizes from NND are below. Your next stop is the super talented Jen Shurkus!
