Hello my lovelies!
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 are 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!
So lovely Katia generously sent us the NND DT her dies and sequins for this fun blog hop today, I was so very excited! Thank you so much, Katia!

I picked this fun, shaker tag die set!
She sent us a ton of sequins as well, her store has such pretty sequins and confetti!
With sweet Newton's Nook Designs products, here is what I came up with...;-)
I chose the tranquil Tides Stamp set and the coordinating die set and go nautical!
I started with this fun shaker card using the Shaker Tag Die set from Studio Katia.
I die the center of this patterned paper, mixed a whole bunch of sequins and confetti from Studio Katia. I was actually inspired by the mint sequins to go with a nautical theme ;-)
We also received this beautiful thank you stamp, which I heat embossed with Pool Party Embossing Powder on vellum and fussy cut. I added that anchor charm and Jude twine for a finishing touch ;-)
Of course I wasn't going to waste the middle piece that I die cut out!
It is, after all, a tag! So I kept the nautical theme, but I colored this beautiful mermaid from the Mermaid Crossing stamp set ;-) She was stamped with the Ranger Archival Black ink on watercolor paper, water colored, then fussy cut. The sea star was colored in with the gold gel pen, so to match the gold, I die cut the xoxo from gold foil sheet. I didn't want too many things on it since it is a tag, but I just had to add those clear droplets that was in one of the sequin mixes from Studio Katia!
On the other side, I used a plain white cardstock with a window that was die cut with the rectangle piece from the Shaker Tag Die set. I inserted the patterned paper with tiny sea stars behind my pretty sequins and confetti :-) I added that little boat charm with Jude twine to match my card ;-)
We are giving away TWO prizes - one prize pack from Studio Katia and one $25 store credit from Newton's Nook Designs!
