Welcome to day 1 of the June Release from Newton’s Nook Designs. This is just the release you needed to see for your summer crafting fun! You are going to love it. Today we start off with an adorable set called Playful Pandas and two (yes, TWO) stencils.
I cannot even get enough of these little pandas. They are so stinkin’ cute I can hardly stand it! And I’m not alone. I was in the process of adhering the card together when my youngest came in and claimed it as “his” birthday card for his older brother. He sure knows the way to this mom’s heart, lol!
I stamped the panda and cut him out (what is not to love about that?!) and then I stamped a bunch of the bamboo images and colored them up really quickly with Copics. I wasn’t sure how many I wanted so I cut them all and then created a bit of a random arrangement. I chose the Hey There sentiment for a more universal card (and birthday, apparently) but I really think this would be funny with the “sorry for what I said when I was hungry”. The black and white striped paper seemed like a natural for the card and I added just a bit of lime paper as a layer for more color. The stencils introduced today are really fab too and I have projects showing you more with those later in the week. So you know what time it is…hop around to the whole DT and make sure leave comments for your chance to win.

I love all of the new ideas!
One of my son’s best friends is nicknamed panda, so this stamp is a must have for me (especially given the included phrases about food & panda-monium, both of which top his priority list ☺). As for me, I have had the amazing opportunity to work with pandas (20 plus years in veterinary medicine), so again, this set carries a lot of meaning to me! Thanks for sharing your inspiration! And I love YOUR son’s comment claiming this card! ❤
Such a cute card. Love the Panda and your background!

The black and white stripes behind the panda sets it off nicely!
