it's not a Newton's Nook release without some Newton action!! 

i really love how this card turned out! i used Distres Oxide Inks in Peacock Feathers and Twisted Citron to create the inked background! 

then i splattered some water on top!

the image was colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then die cut out! i heat embossed the sentiment in white onto the strip of black cardstock! then finished off the card with some clear sequins!

my 2nd card is a sweet harvest scene!

i used the Land Border Dies to create the hills and and watercolored on top with Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Inks . The sun was created with Squeezed Lemonade that i tapped onto my circle acrylic block and pressed onto the white cardstock! 

these colors are totally fall to me, and i like the pops of purple (yes, I did just say that! ha!)

you're kraken me up!

hello!
today i have a fun interactive card for you to see, up on the Newton's Nook Designs blog!
I used the awesome Message in a Bottle stamp set and dies! LOVE them! 

I started by coloring all of my images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers! i then die cut them pieces out! once everything was dry and die cut, i added the penny slider die cut to the bottle! 

the waves were created but die cutting four pieces of white cardstock with the Sea Borders Die set! I used Peacock Feathers and Mermaid Lagoon Distress Inks to add the color to the waves! then i flicked on some water and watered down color of the inks over the waves! 

love how this came together! it's such a fun and unique card! 
be sure to check out the Newton's Nook Designs blog for more details, as well as even more inspiration!!
enjoy!
