Lawn Fawn + Avery Elle + Newton's Nook - Shaker Bookmarks

Hey there!

Today I'm showing you five bookmarks I made a while ago using three of my favorite brands.

Here is the process for one bookmark (they were all made the same way). I first started by cutting the pattern papers twice (dimensions of each side: 13,5 x 5 cm). I chose each paper so it would match nicely with a stamp set.

I heat embossed my sentiment on vellum, and attached it to the front panel using double sided tape at the back. Then I stamped my name on the other panel and glued it at the back of the front one using my tape runner.

I put my panel into a plastic sheet, used my fuse tool to close three sides, filled it with sequins and beads, closed it and draw a tag shape at the top still using my fuse tool. I punched a little whole and tied a piece of twine.

To decorate my bookmark, I stamped my images on watercolor paper using black waterproof ink, colored them with watercolor pens, cut them using the coordinating dies, and glued them to the bookmark using liquid glue.

Newton's Nook - Hello from NYC

Hey there!

Here is a card I made using for the time a product from Newton's Nook: the "Newton dreams of New York" stamp set. I love this stamp set, I think it's so fun and pretty! And I love this city so...

I first started by stamping my background on watercolor paper using black waterproof ink and almost all the images included in the stamp set. Then I die cut a rectangle in that background and started coloring everything using distress inks.

I also stamped the cat on watercolor paper, cut the image using my Big Shot and the coordinating die and colored it using distress inks. I think he's so cute with his t-shirt saying I ❤ NY!

To create my sentiment, I die cut the word hello three times and glued the three pieces together to get more dimension.

Then I attached everything: my cat to a vellum circle using foam squares, the vellum to the background using liquid glue just behind the cat so it wouldn't show, and my sentiment in front of the cat using foam squares and liquid glue.

I attached the whole panel to some navy blue cardstock using double sided tape, and to finish the card, I put some enamel dots here and there.
