Newton's Purr-fect Birthday Slimline Card

Hello everyone!  Today I am sharing a card I made for Newton's Nook Designs Inky Paws Challenge #128 - Color Challenge.  The colors are Red, Pink, Orange, and Yellow.  I am also entering this card into Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes.

I started my background pieces by blending Distress Oxide Inks Squeezed Lemonade and Spun Sugar.  Those two colors blend together nicely making a pretty light orange color!  I then used Newton's Nook Designs Balloons stencil with Mustard Seed and Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Inks.  Next, I die cut a piece of pink glitter card stock using NND Slimline Frames and Windows die.  I attached my ink blended panel to a piece of pink glitter card stock for a border, and then attached the pink glitter windows to the ink blended panel with foam tape for some dimension.

After completing the background, I stamped out these super cute Newton images from Newton's Birthday Bash and Newton Loves Cake stamp sets.  I colored all the pieces with Copic markers then die cut them out with their coordinating dies.  After figuring out the placement for each piece, I stamped the sentiments with black pigment ink, then adhered the Newtons with liquid glue and foam tape.  I used a double layer of foam tape for the center Newton with the balloon to give him some extra lift!  

Copic Colors used for Newtons:

• Y35, Y17, YR15, YR16 - for stripes
• Shadow for white fur on chest - N0, N1

For finishing touches I used a glitter pen for some sparkle and glossy accents for some shine!  I also added some crystals for more bling!  Thank you and I hope you enjoyed my card today!
