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.
