Mother's Day Card with Mint Owl Studio and Stencil Brushes

Mother's Day Card by Jess Gerstner for Mint Owl Studio

Hello crafty friends! Today I have a mother's day card featuring Mint Owl Studio. I wanted to use the stencil brushes I recently acquired because I heard you could get some fun inking effects with them. I used the flowers from Love for Mom and a whole bunch of different sequins. For more on how I got this look check out the video link below.

Newton's Nook Designs April Release Tag Sampler

Neon Tag Card by Jess Gerstner for Newton's Nook Designs

Hello crafty friends! Today I am sharing the Newton's Nook Designs April Release. This set is called Tag Sampler and coordinates perfectly with the Tags Times Two die set that you may already own from our Christmas tag release. I just love how one set of dies will be getting so much use. Unfortunately I was not able to finish this video in time for the release but you can subscribe to my channel to see it soon. I used my MISTI to line up all the tags to build a background and then use my Hero Arts Ombre Ink pad to color the tag and the matte in the background. I love how you can add a pop of color with almost no effort by running your ink pad on cardstock. Also keep reading to find out how to win this set!
