For today’s card, I am showcasing the adorable Newton’s Birdbath stamp set and its coordinating dies. I absolutely adore the images that Jennifer included in this set! This Newton’s Birdbath stamp set and coordinating dies be available for purchase on Friday, April 14, at 8:00 a.m. CST.
I have created a very simple card today but I really love how it turned out. I stamped my images on Neenah solar white card stock and colored the images in with my Copic markers.
I die-cut my card front using the Stitched Fancy Scalloped Die by Kat Scrappiness. Once again, I used my D.I.Y. clouds border stencil to sponge the color on my card panel to create the clouds. I also sponge the colors at the bottom using my new Lawn Fawn ink pads (Minty Fresh and Bubblegum). It almost looks like grass and flowers. I love this color combination!
To finish my design, I used the Land Borders die from Newton’s Nook, and also used a small die from my stash to do the stitching details for my butterfly. Here’s my finished design:
