Tickled pink Flamingo card with Streamers!

Tickled pink Flamingo card with Streamers by Jennifer Jackson |  Flirty Flamingos stamp set  | Newton's Nook Designs

Tickled Pink Monday! 

Happy Monday! Sometimes Mondays are rough so I'm hoping this fun pink card will help make you smile today! I used our new set, Flirty Flamingos, to create this fun little scene. I colored the flamingos on white cardstock with copic markers and added the hearts and the "tickled pink" sentiment above them. Then I added a few blue speckles around them to add a bit of beachy-ness! I also made a fun little ruffle using party streamers. I have some different bits of leftover streamers from parties lying around and it thought it would be fun to try to use them on a card! 

Tickled pink Flamingo card with Streamers by Jennifer Jackson |  Flirty Flamingos stamp set  | Newton's Nook Designs

Aren't the streamers super fun? I just kind of ruffled them up and added them on with some adhesive. I also added a bit of chevron washi tape and some pink and white bakers twine to finish it off. I know it's A LOT of pink - but I thought it turned out to be pretty cute!

Newton’s Nook Designs is so excited to be celebrating our One Year Anniversary - one whole year of getting our paws inky!

We want to take a minute to say THANK YOU to all our fans, designers and customers who helped make it happen! We are so happy to be here and we can't wait to see what the next year brings!

How cool is that? Make sure to scroll down to the end of the post to see the whole list!

Summer Kitty card by Jennifer Jackson | Newton's Nook Designs | Newton's Summer Vacation Cat Stamp


For our stop on the hop, I created a card featuring Newton, our namesake and fan favorite! I stamped the kitty on the inner tube from our new Newton's Summer Vacation stamp set and colored him with copics. Then I cut a circle out of this fun paper that looks sort of like waves. I added on a bit of orange polka-dot paper, some chevron ribbon and twine to dress it up. And some homemade enamel dots to finish it off!

This set is for sale now, along with the rest of our July release at  Newton's Nook Designs online shop today! You can also find our release at Simon Says Stamp !
