Inky Paws Challenge #241 - Sunny Days Theme Week 2

 Hi everyone!  This is Week 2 of the Inky Paws Challenge!  It is Sunny Days Theme.  You have until Friday, June 27th to get your entries in and have a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs online shop!

To start this card I die cut a piece of smooth white cardstock using the scalloped frame die from the Frames and Flags Die Set.  I then blended on some Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Ink.  Next, I used the Sunscape Stencil with Distress Oxide Inks Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade for the sun and sunrays, and Tea Dye for the sand.  I then splattered on some gold watercolor paint and set it aside to dry.

I stamped out this adorable image of Newton and his drink from the Aloha Newton Stamp Set.  I colored the images with copic markers and cut them out using the coordinating die set.  The shells are from the Summer Moments Stamp Set.  I colored them with my copics as well, and cut them out with their coordinating die set.

Next, I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Aloha Newton Stamp Set, directly onto the background in brown pigment ink and clear heat embossed for some shine!  I then used the Retro Sun and Palms Stencil Set to add in the seagulls using white pearl paste. 

I assembled my card using dark kraft paper for my cardbase, and foam tape to pop up Newton and his drink for some dimension!  

For finishing touches on this card, I added accents with a white gel pen and a little bit of glitter!  Now it's time to get your paws inky creating a project for the Sunny Days Theme using your Newton's Nook Designs products.  Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge!  Hope to see you there!
