Newton’s Mix Tape

 

Welcome to day 2 of the NEW release!

Today we are featuring

Using this stamp set I created this card!

I got really crafty for the background.

I stared by taping the first part of the Retro Vibes Stencil Set down to my paper.

Next, I used stencil tape and taped the stencil into a half section.

Then I taped the stencil into a quarter section.

I applied color onto each section and then lifted off the stencil for the image to dry.

Once the image was completely dry. I taped down the top stencil

to the image and blended on Black Soot Distress Ink to the top.

The result is WOW!

I used the Card Layout 7 Die to create the card front.

I ran the image thru the die cutting machine and then pieced everything back together

To complete this card I used one of the dies from the Basic Frames Die Set

to create a backer for the SUPER CUTE Newton’s Mix Tape!

I stamped, colored, and die cut out my image and added it to the front of the card.

The final addition is couple of enamel dots to complete this card.

Hope you enjoyed my fun 80’s birthday card!

Day One Of Our March Release

 

As a child of the 80’s I LOVE this release!!!

Using the products in this release I created the following card.

 

Let us start off with the NEW Card Layout 7 Die

These card layout dies are perfect for a last-minute card make!

For this card I used the New Retro Paper Pad.

Once I chose my paper from the paper pad, I ran each piece thru my die cutting machine.

Then, I used a piece of black cardstock and ran that thru my machine to make the frame.

Next, I created a card base for my card front and glued everything into place.

To complete this card, I used sentiments from the Party On! Stamp Set

My sentiments are stamped on to the small banner from the Frames and Flags Die Set.

 I stamped my sentiment first and then trimmed the edges in

opposite directions to give the sentiment that 80’s flair.

To add bling to the card I used aluminum card stock die cut out with the small circle

from the Circle Frames Die Set that I accented with large matching gems.

Hope you enjoyed my fun 80’s birthday card!

ALL of the NEW products are avalable

Happy Spring

 

Hello Newton Fans!

Spring is in the air.

To celebrate the start of spring I produced this playful fun bunny card.

I started this card by using the NEW Card Layout 6 Die.

This die will create a frame for the card front.

Next, I die cut out the teal polka dots from the Happy Easter Paper Pad.

Inserting the polka dot card stock into the frame, and this became my card front background.

After attaching the card front to a card base, I decided on my elements for the front.

For these elements I chose bunnies from Springtime Bunnies Stamp Set.

Lilies from Easter Postage Sampler

After stamping, coloring, and cutting out my image I was ready to place everything on my card.

I used the scallop circle from the Circle Frames Die Set as my backer.

I started assembling this card by putting the circle in the center.

I created a banner with leftover paper from another spring card I recently created.

The banner comes from the Banner Trio Die Set,

The sentiment is from Springtime Bunnies Stamp Set

The bunnies went on top of the banner with foam tape.

The lilies went behind and next to the bunnies.

Once all of the elements are secure, my card is done.

I just love how this card turned out.

The colors are perfect for Spring!

Putting the card front together was made easy using the Card Layout 6 Die.

Hope you enjoyed my take on Spring cardmaking.

Stay Crafty Everyone!

Newton's Nook Design Feature - Spring Bunnies

Day One Of Our Spring Feature. 

 

Today we are taking a look at the

NEW Springtime Bunnies and Happy Easter Paper Pack.

 

For this incredibly cute stamp set I created this card.

Started this card off by using the Basketweave Stencil In a unique way.

I treated this stencil like an embossing folder.

This is a terrific way to stretch your product.

To do this you need a die-cutting machine that is wide enough to manage a 6x6 stencil.

1st choose your paper, add a light spritz of water to that paper.

You want to have the appropriate sandwich for your die cutting machine.

I use my Cuttlebug for embossing and a rubber press plate.

Once I run my sandwich through my machine my stencil has now embossed the paper.

Please make sure that you let the paper dry before die-cutting.

To make my shaped card, I use the Frames and Flags Die Set.

Using a basic circle die from my stash to die cut a window that is

going to feature paper from Happy Easter Paper Pack.

I created a banner using one of the flags from the Frames and Flags Die Set for my sentiment.

Once my banner was placed on the front of my card, I attached

the bunnies and eggs from Springtime Bunnies 

These bunnies are SO CUTE!!

Best of all, the new product is available NOW!!

 

Have an awesome day!

Stay crafty my friends

Love Cafe

Hello Newton Fans!

It Is Coffee Time!

 

I started by using the coffee cups in the Love Café Stamp Set to create a background.

This is an uncomplicated process of stamping onto white card stock

 over and over creating a pattern paper look.

To add some interest I took black acrylic paint and added some splats to this page.

When the paint and ink was dry, I cut this background

from the scalloped rectangle that is part of the Frameworks Die Set.

I also created a card base using the same die turning this card into a shaped card.

Stamping the sentiment onto the bottom of the card front is first.

Then I stamped and colored my images from the Love Café Stamp Set

Once these are die-cut, I added the stamped image to the front of the card with foam tape.

I also stamped out the coffee beans and added those on because they are so cute!

 

Hope you enjoyed my take on the fun stamp set!

Stay Crafty Everyone!

Thanks so much for stopping by.

TONS of Fun

 

Hello Newton Fans!

Starting off the SEASON OF LOVE!

For this card, I started out with a base from my stash of A2 Cardlayout 2 Die.

I purchase these plastic Containers from Michaels.

 The large photo size box is perfect for holding these die sizes.

When the mood hits, I pull out a dye and just make some card fronts.

I use the card front for inspiration when I am in a crafty rut.

For this particular card font I used pink, brown and light pink paper leftover from some project.

Since the card front is already done, I attached it to a card base of carnation cardstock.

My stamp set of choice is Love Quarry.

I am a huge fan of orange and pink together, perfect for my construction equipment colors.

Once everything was colored and die cut out using the coordinating dies,

 my pieces are ready to be added to the front of the card.

I decided to have some fun with the placement by

 putting my bulldozer on top and my dump truck on the bottom.

Right corner piece for my sentiment.

Added some accents colors by using blue for the caution cones.

I also added plenty of extra hearts To have my truck overflowing.

 

Hope you enjoyed my take on the fun stamp set!

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Stay crafty everyone!

Golden Holiday Card

Hello Newton Fans!

Here today on the blog sharing a golden holiday card.

 

I had no idea Christmas Cactuses were a thing until I saw this stamp set.

Finally a couple of years ago, I found my very own Christmas Cactus at Trader Joe's.

 

This is Holly, she just finished blooming.

 Over the years I have loved watching holly grow and sprout out her flowers.

Every holiday season I enjoy pulling out this stamp set and creating a card inspired by Holly.

To create this year's card, I started with the golden background.

Using the Christmas Cactus, I stamped the image

in a random pattern using Versamark ink onto gold card stock.

I use gold embossing powder and heat set the embossing powder onto the cardstock.

I let the embossed image dry and then die cut the embossed paper with the

banner from the Basic Frames Die Set.

Next, I created a card front and base using red cardstock and the Frames and Flag Die Set.

I stamped, colored, and die-cut out images from the Christmas Cactus Stamp.

I assembled my card front and base and then added the golden layer on top.

Finally, I added my die cut Christmas Cactus on top of the golden layer with foam tape.

I positioned an additional section of Christmas Cactus in the background to enhance 

the card front and allow the foreground image to occupy more space.

To complete this card I created a simple banner with one of

 the sentiments included in the stamp set.

Also I added some gold bobbles for bling.

Hope you enjoyed my golden holiday card.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Stay crafty everyone!
