2018 Stamping For Autism Awareness Blog Hop


Today Newton's Nook Designs is proud to be a supporter of the 2018 Stamping for Autism Awareness Blog hop!


We are joining Veronica Zalis and tons of other amazing stampers to help raise autism awareness! We hope you will help us spread the word and follow along with us. There are going to be TONS of fun prizes too - including a $25 store credit from us at Newton's Nook Designs

To learn more about this hop and see a complete list of sponsors and prizes, please visit this blog post by Veronica Zalis here.

Here's what I created to play along with this hop today: 

2018 Stamping For Autism Awareness Blog Hop | Uplifting Wishes and Holding Happiness Stamp Set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook #handmade

The theme of our hop is to create inspirational and uplifting cards so today I used two of our new stamp sets to create this adorable card! The girl holding the balloons is from out new Holding Happiness Stamp Set. I stamped her onto watercolor paper with waterproof ink and colored her using Zig Clean Color watercolor brush markers. I though the bright colors were so fun and cheerful so I left her dress a simple black so that they would stand out. I also used the "You lift me up" sentiment from our new Uplifting Wishes Stamp Set for the sentiment, embossing it in white on black cardstock.

For the card base I created a scene using the for the girl. I started by stenciling clouds from our Cloudy Sky Stencil and then added two hills cut out with our Land Borders Die Set. I assembled it all together and added some black and white polka dot washi tape up the side!
