Newton's Nook Designs June Release - Day 4

Hello Everybody!

It is day 4 of our New Release!

I know you're going to have so much fun with this new stamp set.

Farmer Newton

Using this stamp set I came up with this card.



To create this card, I started with a base of the NEW Hexagon Frames Die and

The picnic Plaid red paper from the Farmyard Paper Pad.

I created a card base using basic red card stock and hexagon dies.

I used the Farmyard Plaid Paper as my card front with a white hexagon die on top.

I just love how awesome these hexagon dyes are!

Next, I colored my images from Farmer Newton.

Of course, my farmer kitty cat had to wear denim!

Once everything was colored in and die cut out, I placed my haystacks on the card first.

I added foam tape to the back of Farmer Newton and placed him in the center of the haystacks.



Using the sentiment that is included in the stamp set, 

I created a banner using Banner Duo Die Set.

Farmer Newton is such a cute stamp set and using it with hexagon dyes just made the cutest card.

I hope you enjoyed my take these latest items that we have on this release.

This and all the other fun latest items are available June 22nd.

  

Happy Shopping!

Newton's Nook Designs June Release - Day 3

Hello Everybody!

It is day one of three of our New Release!

We have three amazing NEW products for you to play with.



Using these three latest items I created these cards.



For the Barn Die Set I started my card by creating a

 base using the Circle Frames Die Set and white card stock.

To create the card front I used a piece of

blue Paisley and green gingham cardstock from the NEW Farmyard Paper Pad.

 Overlapping the pieces of paper and then using the sea border dye die cut them together.


 The paper now fits together like a puzzle.

I use the scalloped circle frames die to line everything up and check my placement

for where I was going to put my barn when the card was finished.



Once I was satisfied with my barn placement, I removed the barn die and then taped down the

 Circle Frames Die to the two pieces of paper and ran it through my die cut machine.

Even though this is a few different steps to die cut  the process creates

 a great focal point for the background of my card front.

Next, I turn my attention to die-cutting out all the pieces for the barn.

I assembled my barn pieces on a separate piece of white card stock and glued everything down.

The sentiment comes from the Moo Stamp Set and I use the banner 

from the Frames and Flag Die Set.



To assemble this card, I glued my die cut card stock to the front of my card.

 Then, attached the banner to the back of the barn and then popped all the pieces up with foam tape.

I added drops of golden stickles to my hay and this shaped card is complete.

 

FOR THE TRACTOR DIE SET

I started by choosing two pieces of paper from the Farmyard Paper Pad that compliments each other.

Using the largest stitched rectangle die from the Basic Frames Die Set to cut both pieces out together.



After stacking the two pieces, I used a sharp Rotary blade to divide the pieces up into four triangular sections.


I reassembled and glued those sections down onto white card stock creating two different card fronts.

I placed the two card fronts aside to dry and then die cut all the pieces of the tractor.

Assembling the Tractor Die Set was so much fun I added a

bit of bling by using silver card stock for the stack and light.

The stitched rectangle from the Basic Frames Die Fits perfectly

 inside the Frames and Flags Scalloped Die.

This made deciding my card base quick and easy.

I created my card base with light-yellow card stock.

I chose one of the created card fronts and hand cut it out.



Assembling this card was easy, I added my card front to the base.

To create a place for my tractor I used one of the NEW Hexagon Dies and white card stock.

That was glued directly on to the card front.

I glued my tractor on to the hexagon next.

Finally, I created simple sentiment banners from the Farming Fun Stamp Set

and added those to the front of the card with foam tape.

 I hope you enjoyed my take these latest items that we have on this release.

This and all the other fun latest items are available June 22nd.

Newton's Nook Designs June Release - Day 2


 Hello Everybody!

It is day two of our NEW Release!

To keep the buzz going we have a NEW fun and unique stamp set!

  Beekeeper Newton Stamp Set + Coordinating Die Set

Using this stamp set I created this card.



 To start this card, I created a background using the NEW Honeycomb Hot Foil Plate.

I chose citron foil on dark blue card stock.

I foiled the hot foil plate twice, side by side so it will fit across my background.



Once the foil was cooled, I used these scalloped die

 from the  Frames And Flags Die Set to cut out my card front.

I also used the same die set to craft my shaped card.

Stamping coloring and die cutting beekeeper Newton came next.


Since my background is dark, I chose a red beekeeper outfit to stand out.

I also die cut and colored out extra bees.

To assemble my card, I used the NEW Hexagon Frames Die Set

 And white cardstock to create a background for my beekeeper Newton.

The hexagon is glued down first over my foil background.

Next came my banner and the sentiment that is glued down.

Finally, beekeeper Newton is added to the card with foam tape.

 I also added the bees to the front of the card with foam tape.

To finish this card, I added gel pen details and a couple matching gems.


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

This and all the other fun latest items are available June 22nd

Newton's Nook Designs June Release - Day 1

Hello Everybody

We have an amazing June release!

These new products will keep you buzzing with excitement

First my new favorite shaped die!

The Hexagon Frames Die will step up your shaped card game.


Also, for those hot foil plate lovers, the NEW Honey Honeycomb Hot Foil plate with dies.

Using these two latest items I created this card.


As you can see, I went GOLD for this card!

I started this card by creating a base for this card using craft card stock.

 For the card front I used gold card stock.

My favorite metallic card stock comes from Michaels, this cardstock is a little bit thicker weight

 and it does not scratch as easily when going through the die cut machine.

I used the scalloped hexagon in the new die set to create that gold card front.

 Next, using The Honeycomb Hot Foil Plate with gold foil, and white card stock 

I foiled up my next layer for the card. In typical Diane fashion, 

I was so excited about the foil that I forgot to take pictures.



Once the foil was cooled, I die cut the foil honeycombs out with the stitch hexagon die.

Next, I used black foil on white card stock and foiled a swarm of bees.

I colored those bees using traditional colors.

I also created a banner with black card stock and the banner from the A7 Frames and Die Set.

The sentiment on this banner comes from Heartfelt Honeycomb Stamp Set

which we will talk about in a minute.

I placed my banner on the front of my card with foam tape and added my bees.

To finish this card, I used Disco Ball Stickles for the wings on the bees.

Also added gold enamel dots from my stash.

I just love this new hexagon die!

The honeycomb hot foil plate is so much fun and great for so many backgrounds for on the cards.

Also included in this release is the Heartfelt Honeycomb Stamp Set.

This stamp set is so much fun.

Of course, I had to make it a shaped card using the Heart Frames Die Set.





To start this card, I started with a card base of red card stock.

I stamped out the honeycomb stamp and then used the

 scalloped die in the Heart Frames Die Set to die cut it out my stamped image.

I also die cut out the drippy honey and bees.

Since this is just black and white I decided to go wild on this card!

I also did this card in reverse

 I stamped my sentiment and die cut it out with the Banner Duo Die.

I added this banner to my card 1st with foam tape.

Next, I decided on the placements of my drippy honey and

colored in the honeycombs that will be behind my drippy honey.



I added on my drippy honey pieces just above those colored

 in honeycomb and then I added on my bees popped up with foam tape.

To make this card really stand out I used Golden Stickles on my honeycomb and drippy honey.

On the bee’s wings I used Disco Ball Stickles.

I also used Disco Ball Stickles to add a little bling in the honeycombs around the drips.

This concludes my take on the products from day one.

  This and all the other new products will be available on Friday June 21st.

 

Happy Shopping!
