Newton's Nook Designs & Studio Katia Co-Hop!

Welcome to the Summer Fun Collaboration Blog hop with Newton's Nook Designs and Studio Katia! Both teams are celebrating the start of summer with fun and colorful cards using stamps from Newton's Nook Designs and dies and embellishments from Studio Katia. There's prizes too! Both companies have a prize to give away too so make sure you read all the way to the bottom of this post to see how to win!

Here's what I created:

I started out using the Stitched Loops Die from Studio Katia. I love the three little circles in a row an it reminded me of port holes on a ship so I decided to go with a sea theme and grabbed our Shark Bites Stamp Set to create my card.

I created a shaker card, using the Stitched Loops Die from Studio Katia to cut out a window in the center of a piece of bright blue cardstock. I also cut it out in black to create the inner frame. Before assembling my shaker, I stamped little tiny fish all over it from the Shark Bites Stamp Set. I also stamped the little shark silhouette from that set to put behind the window. I filled the shaker with sequins using the Summer Fusion sequin mix from Studio Katia. I love the bright colors in this mix! Then I added a shark in front of the shaker using the shark image from the Shark Bites Stamp Set and coloring him with copics. I also added the "Feel like grabbing a bite?" sentiment into a little circle (this circle was the innermost cut that comes out when you use the Stitched Loops Die from Studio Katia). I finished the card off with a little strip of heart patterned washi tape and a bright yellow cardstock base! 

I hope you enjoyed this project! The next stop on the hop is Olga.
