Aloha Newton Stamp and Die Set, Tropical Leaves Stencil, Frames and Flags Die Set, Circle Frames Die Set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook #handmade

To start this card I cut a teal A2 size cardbase.  Using the scalloped frame die from the Frames and Flags Die Set I cut a piece of smooth white cardstock on which I used the Tropical Leaves Stencil with Distress Oxide Inks Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, and Salvaged Patina.

I used the largest smooth stitched circle die in the Circles Frames Die Set to cut a piece of smooth white cardstock on which I blended Twisted Citron and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Inks. 

Next, I stamped out this adorable Newton image from the Aloha Newton Stamp Set, colored him with Copic markers, and cut him out with the coordinating die set

I used a banner die from the Frames and Flags Die Set to cut a piece of teal cardstock on which I white heat embossed the sentiment and the edges of the banner.  

With all my pieces complete, I assembled my card.  I adhered my leafy background to the teal cardbase, and the stitched circle to the background.  I then used thin foam tape to adhere the sentiment banner, and foam squares to pop up Newton for some dimension!
