    Here's some inspiration!

    Several of our Design Team Members decided to play along - check out all the awesome Summer cards they created! Read the description below each card to see who made it.

    Summer kitties on the beach card by Naki Rager | Newton's Summer Vacation & Aloha Newton stamp sets by Newton's Nook Deisgns
    Naki created an awesome beach scene combining two or our Newton summer sets. The kitty in the hammock and tropical drink are from the new Aloha Newton stamp set and the kitty with the sandcastle and pail are from the Newton's Summer Vacation stamp set. 

    Summer watercolor palm tree card by Samantha  Mann | Paradise Palms stamp set by Newton's Nook Deisgns
    Samantha created an awesome watercolor beach scene on her card. She used distress markers to ink up the palm tree  from our Paradise Palms stamp set and watercolored over the top! The "summer lovin'" sentiment is from the new Dog Days of Summer Stamp set. 


    Summer watercolor Kitty with Hibiscus card by Stephanie Muzzulin | Aloha Newton stamp set by Newton's Nook Deisgns
    Stephanie created this awesome beach card! She used bright watercolors to color the kitty from the new Aloha Newton stamp set! She also added in the tiny die cut hibiscus and leaf from the Tiki Time stamp set! Such a perfect summery combo!  

    Summer Tiki card by Jess Gerstner | Tiki Time stamp set by Newton's Nook Deisgns
    What says summer more than a tiki drink? Jess used a whole crew of tiki faces  from our new Tiki Time stamp set across the bottom of her card! I love that pretty sky she put behind them! 


    Summer Hibiscus Earrings by Larissa Heskett | Hibiscus die set by Newton's Nook Deisgns
    Larissa created some beautiful summer earrings using the Hibiscus die set and shrink plastic! What a fun idea! These turned out amazing! She created those cool backer cards for them using the frame from the Garden Starter stamp set! 


    Summer dog and ice cream card by Jennifer Jackson | Dog Days of Summer Stamp set by Newton's Nook Deisgns
    I had fun playing along this month too! I created a dog card using the pup and ice cream from our new Dog Days of Summer Stamp stamp set.  I made a simple card, just adding a sentiment and some washi and flags ups this side using paper scraps! I thought it needed a little bling so I added on a big button!
