Hello Newton’s Nook Fans!
Here today to bring you a star-spangled summer card.

 

Newton’s Happy Meowr has the vibes that I am looking for this summer. To create a background for this stamp set I started by selecting paper. We are going for a star-spangled summer theme, so I chose 1 red, 1 white and 1 blue star themed paper from Stars & Stripes Paper Pad. I like to slide my paper underneath my die before cutting.
This is a good visual tool to see how everything is going to look before you make the commitment of cutting your paper.
For this card I will be using Card Layout 4 Die Set

 

After die cutting all of the pieces for the card I assembled the card front onto a card base. White cardstock for the border pieces and the card base. I stamped and colored my image from Newton’s Happy Meowr Stamp Set. The backdrop for my image is part of Hexagon Frames Die Set.

To finish this card up, I glued down all of the pieces of the front of the card. I created a banner with a piece of scrap dark blue cardstock, using white embossing powder to make sure the sentiment stood out.
The shells from Newton’s Happy Meowr add that finishing touch!

Thanks for taking the time to check out my star-spangled card!
