You're Dyno-mite!

I love the new Prehistoric Pals stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs- it is so fun and unique! The little dinosaurs are adorable and so are the sentiments!  On today's card, I used the tyrannosaurus rex image to create a simple scene:

Isn't he cute in pink?  :)  I used some of the other stamps in the set to create the background.  I stamped the grass in black and watercolored them using green inks.  I stamped the palm in the background using a very light ink.  I colored it in lightly with watercolors so that it would look far away.  I also added some shadows under the dino.

The plaid paper is from Doodlebug Designs and the cardstock is by Stampin' Up!  The pink twine is from The Twinery and it matches the paper and the dino perfectly!

Well, thanks for popping in today!

Newton's Nook Designs August Release- Prehistoric Pals

It's release week for Newton's Nook Designs!  Today they are introducing Prehistoric Pets- a fun set featuring some cute dinos!!  Here is a card I created using them:

Isn't that stegosaurus cute?  I colored him with Copics and cut him out.  I stamped some dino prints and the palm tree on my card front and then flicked some mists over it.  I added the washi tapes next, stamping the sentiment over the yellow one with Staz On ink.  I added the twine with my tiny attacher next and finished it off by adding my dino and a couple of epoxy dots.

I had fun creating this one!  I colored a few other dinosaurs at the same time so I think I'll make it into a little dino set to give to my friend- she loves dinosaurs!
