Summer Scrapbook Layout - Newtons Nook SummerMoments RetroSunPalms - Tim Holtz DistressInks

Definitely got inky on this scrapbook layout. My Newton's Nook order arrived and I used Summer Moments stamp & die along with Retro Sun & Palms Stencil Set. Used Copic markers for coloring. Can you see where I used a fine point black marker to scribble write on the book pages to make it look more like actual book pages? Used Tim Holtz Distress Inks with stencils. On sentiment tag I punched out 2 sea shells on either side of sand heat embossed sentiment "Sea you at the beach." Will add a 4" x 4" photo.

I like to collect sea shells & like to read so this set is perfect. Also has me practicing my coloring using Copic markers. Currently I'm enjoying reading Camino Winds by John Grisham.
