happy purr-thday!

hello and happy Tuesday!
today I have this fun, birthday-themed card up on the Newton's Nook Designs blog!

so fun, right?
Newton is so happy to be flying through the air with his birthday balloons!
I colored all of the images from Newton's Birthday Balloons with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, and then used the coordinating dies to die cut them all out!

for the background, I did some distress ink blending with Black Soot, Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers along with the Clouds Stencil! then I splattered some water on top, because that's 90% of the fun with Distress Inks! ha!

the sentiment was heat embossed in white onto a strip of black cardstock, and then popped up with foam tape!
be sure to check this card out on the Newton's Nook blog, too, if you're so inclined!
enjoy!
