Hello friends and welcome to Day 1 of the Newton's Nook Designs June Release! I'm so happy to be back hopping with the team again this month after a break last month to move to Pittsburgh, PA! Today, we're featuring the brand new adorable set called Playful Pandas along with 2 (yes 2!) new stencils.
When I first starting working on my card using the Playful Pandas Stamp Set, I wasn't quite sure what kind of card I wanted to make. Then I saw the cute balloon stamp and that got me to thinking about having the several of the pandas hold something. This also led to the idea of it becoming a birthday card. However, I needed some more birthday stamps, so I pulled out the Sending Hugs Stamp Set for the cupcake and present and the Newton Loves Cake Stamp Set for the party hats.
I stamped the Pandas using only black ink and then stamped the remaining images and colored them using my Chameleon Pens. It was then time to create the background. For this card, I used the Confetti Stencil and inked it up with Distress Oxide in Citron Twist. This is not one of the newer stencils being revealed today, but it was just too perfect not to use for the theme of this card! I then die cut it using postage edged die from the Framework Die Set.
To give the images a little dimension, I adhered some of the pieces with double sided foam adhesive. I also added a little detailing with a white gel pen.

ReplyDeleteThis Panda set is just too cute for words! Not only do I love all the playful positions of the pandas, the sentiments are perfect (to me especially) as one of my son's best friends is nicknamed "panda" and he is a "foodie" and causes "panda-monium"! Can't wait to get my hands on this set!!! ❤
