Always On My Mind Card by June Guest Designer Melissa Andrew

Hi ya everyone! Melissa here to share my last card as a Newton’s Nook guest!  I had so much fun creating with these adorable stamps, dies and stencils. Today is no exception as I used the Naughty Newton Stamp SetNewton’s Birdbath Stamp Set, and the Clouds Stencil.

First, I stamped little Naughty Newton and his flower pots in alcohol marker safe ink. Next, I masked him off and stamped Newton playing in a birdbath over top.  The mask prevents the lines from stamping on the image in the front.

I then colored the image in alcohol markers.  I wanted to also create grass beneath their little feet.  I then cut a piece of paper to an A2 size and used a blending brush and a light blue ink with the Clouds Stencil to create a cloudy sky. I then cut this panel down to a 4 x 5.25 inch panel.

I then used the little butterfly from Newton’s Birdbath to stamp onto the cloud background and cut out the image of the kitty and the birdbath to pop up onto the cloud background.

Last, I colored the butterflies, stamped a sentiment and popped up the kittens with foam tape.  I then adhered the panel to an A2 white card base.
