Newton's Nook Designs Holiday Release - Day 1

MERRY DAYS AHEAD!

Who is ready for fun new release!

To start things off we have

Evergreen Frame Die Set

Merry Christmas Die Set

Holiday Cheer Die Set

Christmas Word Trio

 Christmas Basics Paper Pad

Using these fun new products I created these items.

I LOVE the Evergreen Frame Die Set!!

  The background on this die cuts out completely

 and makes it easy to pop into different pieces.

 This makes this die very versatile and so much fun to use.

I die cut out three pieces of cardstock.

Teal for the sky

Green for the trees

and white cardstock for the frame.

After layering all the pieces onto an extra piece of white card stock,

and gluing everything together, I created this card front.

I die cut one extra piece of the white card stock to create a frame that goes around the outside.

This was quick and easy to do by just trimming out the trees.

I used the Holiday Cheer Die Set to create a sentiment for the bottom of the card.

I used the same red card stock as I did for the card base to cut out the background.

Then I used white glimmer cardstock to cut out the words.

To finish this card, I added bits of snow with white paint and glued on Sparkly gems.

 

For the next card, I started again with red card stock.

I used the Plaid Stencil Set to create the background.

First, I inked on a layer using Victorian Velvet Distress Ink

When that layer was dry, I used Festive Berries Embossing Powder to ink on the final layer.

When everything was dry, I used the Frames and Flags Die Set

to create my card base and cut out my card front.

Remember those trees I cut out from the previous project to use to create the frame?

I repurposed those trees for the front of this card.

All I did was add foam tape to the back of the trees and attach them to the front of the card.

Adding Glossy Accents to all the creases in the trees.

then coveing the Glossy Accents with Rock Candy Distress Gliter

My sentiment for this card is created by using the Christmas Word Trio

so easy to make!

 When you create with these word dies you get 2 sentiments.

 Glossy black cardstock with white letters is my choice for my Sentiment.

After piercing my 2 new sentiments together I added this to my card foam tape.

These new dies could not be any more fun to use!

I know you will enjoy mixing and matching different card stocks and creating different sentiments.

All these new products will be available. Friday, October 18

Let's Get Batty

For this first day of October let us get Batty!

 

It is officially my birthday month and to start things off with a bang!

I have this super cute, shaped card perfect for the Halloween Season.

 

For this project I used  

Batty Newton

Halloween Party Paper Pad

Hexagon Frame Die

Frames and Flags Die Set

 To start this project off I chose paper from the Halloween Party Paper Pad.

I decided on bat paper with the pink background to be the card front.

Using the Hexagon Frame Die , I created a card base with

 black cardstock and the scalloped hexagon die.

To create the card front I used the stitched hexagon die with the paper I chose.

Once everything was glued together, I placed the card aside with a weight on top for it to stay flat.

Next, I stamped my images from Batty Newton.

I colored in Newton using teals and grays to coordinate with the pink background.

Once I was done coloring, I die cut out my image.

I also used one of the flags from the Frames And Flags Die Set 

to create a place for the sentiment.

I chose the placement of my image and tucked the sentiment behind.

The sentiment is glued down and the image is popped up with foam tape.

To finish this card, I stamped and die cut a couple of bats to add to the front of the card.

I also added a couple of black gems for to give the card sparkle

This is a fun shaped card that was easy to make!

The bat paper from the Halloween Party Paper Pad

 and Batty Newton are the perfect combo for your next Halloween card.

Thanks for stopping by

  Hope you have an awesome day

 Stay crafty my friends!

Newton's Nook Designs Fall & Halloween - Day 4

Hello Everybody!

It is day FOUR of our New Release!

This this stamp set is going to LEAF you feeling crafty.

Leaf Splendor Stamp Set

Using this stamp set i created this card

To start this card, I used the following colors of distress oxide.

I chose one color for each of the leaves that I wanted to use in the Leaf Splendor Stamp Set.

I randomly stamped the leaves on to a piece of white card stock.

Since this is oxide ink the leaves had to dry completely before moving on.

I also stamped extra leaves with the same colors as I used for the background.

For these leaves, I used a water brush and just pulled out the color from the center of the leaf.

I also set these leaves aside to dry completely.

I created a card base by using sage card stock and the

largest scalloped edge dies from the Frames and Flags Die Set.

The background of leaves is now dry, I decided to use the

largest stitched rectangle in the Basic Frames Die Set to cut my leaf background.

This rectangle die fits perfectly in the center of the Frames and Flags Die.

After gluing my card front and card base together, I die cut out

 all my water-colored leaves using the coordinating dies.

The sentiments on this stamp set come with coordinating

dies that cut around the sentiment perfectly!

I used straw colored cardstock and a die from the Circle Frames Die Set

 to create a place for this cool looking sentiment.

To add my sentiment circle to the card I added just a

strip of foam tape to the center in the back of the circle

This way I could layer my leaves behind the sentiment.

I added leaves behind the circle until I liked what I saw.

To finish this card, I added a couple of gems.

 I hope you enjoyed my take on the Leaf Splendor Stamp Set

Newton's Nook Designs Fall & Halloween - Day 3

Hello Everybody!

It is day THREE of our New Release!

This stamp set is going to give you all the FALL FEELS!

Autumn Reads Stamp Set 

Using this die set I created this bookmark.

 

The plan for this bookmark is to have a cozy fall feeling.

Nothing is cozier than Plaid! So, a plaid background it is.

I grabbed my Plaid Stencil Set, a piece of burgundy cardstock, 

and Dried Marigold Distressed Oxide.

I applied the oxide to the burgundy cardstock with the stencil and let it dry.

Once the oxide was dry, I used the Bookmark Two Die Set and cut out my Plaid background.

The next thing I did was stamp out the larger stack of books from the Autumn Reads Stamp Set.

Coloring these in was so much fun! I kept the colors fall like but bold.

When everything was dry on my image, I cut out my books using the coordinating die.

To make this bookmark a little extra I stamped my sentiment on the bottom of the bookmark

and then embossed with gold embossing powder.

I added foam tape on the back of my stack of books and placed them on the front of my bookmark.

I also added on my ribbon tag held together with a cute matching Brad.

I hope you enjoyed my take on the Autumn Reads Stamp Set. 

This and all the other fun latest items are available Friday, September 13th

Newton's Nook Designs Fall & Halloween - Day 2

Hello Everybody!

It is day TWO of our NEW Release!

Super excited to share this fun versatile stamp.

Spooky Stories Stamp Set

Using this stamp set I created this bookmark.

I started this bookmark by creating a background for my stamps.

My stencil of choice is the  Argyle Stencil Set

I do not use my stencils enough, and this would be a wonderful way to get practice in.

I chose teal blue cardstock for my base color.

I used Stormy Sky Distressed Ink and Salvage Patina Oxide.

It was about this time that I was starting to feel the effects of the flu.

Because of this, unfortunately I have no pictures of this process.

I do know that I love the way this background came out.

To cut out my shape I chose the Bookmark Die Set.

I placed the bookmark aside and I started working on my stamps.

I stamped out the bats from Spooky Stories Stamp Set.

In my mind I thought how it would be different to have a blue moon so, I did just that!

I used alcohol markers to color in my moon and then I added on a layer of

glitter pen let that dry, and then a layer of Stardust stickles.

Of course, all of this must dry before you can die cut your image out.

But let us check out that die cut, I love the way it cuts into all the nooks and crannies.

This gives the stamp set so much dimension.

I added my bats on to the front of my bookmark with foam tape.

Next using the banner that comes in the Bookmark Die Set

 I created a banner that comes up from the bottom of the tag.

I also added a couple extra bats and three gems to make things interesting!

That concludes my take on the Spooky Stories Stamp Set

I hope you enjoyed my take on the fun and unique stamp set.

This and all the other fun latest items are available Friday, September 13th
