Inky Paws Challenge #144 - Sketch Challenge Reminder

 Hi everyone!  Don't forget you have until Friday, March 26th to get your entries into Newton's Nook Designs Inky Paws Challenge to have a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs online shop!  This is Inky Paws Challenge #144 - Sketch Challenge. 

I started this card by cutting a piece of gold glitter cardstock to 5" x 7" for my cardbase.  Next, I cut a piece of smooth white cardstock to 4 3/4" x 6 3/4" and blended Distress Oxide Inks Squeezed Lemonade, Scattered Straw, Kitsch Flamingo, and Shaded Lilac.  I then used NND new Basketweave stencil with glitter paste on my ink blended panel and set it aside to dry.

I used the largest circle die in NND Circle Frames die set to cut a piece of smooth white cardstock.  To create the outdoor scene, I used NND Hills and Grass stencil with Distress Oxide Inks Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn.  I then used NND Clouds stencil with Distress Oxide Inks Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean.  I stamped the sentiment from NND Newton's Peeps stamp set in black pigment ink and clear heat embossed.  I stamped the super cute images of Newton and his Peeps, also from NND Newton's Peeps stamp set, colored them with Copic markers, and cut them out with their coordinating die set.  After adhering the images with foam tape, I decided to add a couple of butterflies from NND Newton's Birdbath stamp set.  I colored them, cut them out with their coordinating die set, and adhered them to my scene with foam tape as well.   

I used NND Frames and Flags die set to cut the yellow and pink banners, adhering them to my card with liquid glue.  I then attached the adorable scene to my card with foam tape for some dimension!
