I just love this Newton's Nook Stamp. The cat head shaped balloon makes me smile every time I see it. The stamp is perfect for several challenges -
Inky Paws Challenge - Colors Yellow, Teal, Green
Seize the Birthday - With Toppings - Balloons
AAA Birthday- Anything Goes
Work it Wednesday - SSS Pet Project
I stamped a grid stamp tone on tone on a yellow card base. Then I sponged ink in teal and yellow onto a card panel using Newton's Nook Bokeh stencils. I felt they gave a feel of lots and lots of balloons.
I added smaller dots with a copic marker in green to fill in some white space. Next, I stamped the sentiment and partially stamped the Newton Balloon image. After coloring, it was die cut with a circle and popped up against the bokeh inked panel and the card base.
There is a lot going on here for me and not my usual style. But I think it is definitely festive as a birthday card should be!
Thanks for visiting!

Very cute - perfect combination with the cat and that stencil set!
Definitely festive. The stenciling on the top panel looks like a nice continuation of the balloons. Nice job!
Great bokeh background and it works really well with the tone on tone grid.This card is just full of interest, love the shadow of the turquoise ballon showing through the yellow one. A really nice departure from your usual style xx
Super CUTE kitty and your Bokeh stenciling is absolutely amazing, Cat! I love your color combo and your tone-on-tone stamping on the background is perfect! Such a fun card!
