Hello friends! Welcome to Day 3 of Newton's Nook Designs April Release! Today we're sharing a new set called Umbrella Pals and it's coordinating die. These adorable umbrella's are just perfect for putting a smile on your face!
Umbrella Card with Cloud Die Masked Background
To create the background, I die cut a piece of cardstock using the cloud border die from the Sky Borders Die Set. I then used it as a mask to create the cloudy sky. I began at the bottom and lightly inked the clouds with Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass. I recommend stamping off the ink before applying it the the paper to avoid applying too much ink. You can always add more! I then continued moving the the mask up the card, offsetting it as I inked each section.
Once the background was complete, I stamped several of the adorable Umbrella Pal images onto watercolor paper with Versafine Ink. I then embossed it with clear embossing powder. Next, I colored in each image using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I thought watercolor markers would be perfect for the theme of this card!
For the sentiment piece, I die cut a banner using a die from the Flags and Frames Die Set. I then stamped the sentiment with Versafine onto it and then heat embossed it with white embossing powder.
To complete the card, I die cut a frame using the Flags and Frames Die Set and embossed it with the a polka dot embossing folder. I then adhered the images using double sided foam tape for a bit of dimension.
Here's a full look at the new stamps and dies being revealed today. All the new products will be available on Friday, May 20.
