Newton's Nook Designs Christmas Release

 

Hello Everybody!

We are on day two of our preview.
Check out these fun dies.

 Using the Happiest Holidays Die I created this tag.



I started this tag by choosing paper from Christmas Party Paper Pad

The bows and wreaths on this paper caught my attention!

I cut the paper out using the largest of the Essential Tags Die Set.

I also cut out a second piece of card stock to glue on the back to give my tag some stiffness.

Once these two pieces were glued together, I used a Gray alcohol marker

and added some dimension around the edges.

You are going to love this next part, and it is a game changer with word dies.

To create my snowy lead letters I first started with some red card stock.

I smeared Versamark ink across the card stock added clear embossing powder and heat set.

Next is smeared Versamark ink on top of that added white embossing powder and heat set.


I like to put my paper in the freezer for a minute to make sure the 

embossing powder is absolutely dry and hard.

Here is where the magic happens, I take my dye and place it on the

 the halfway point between the white and clear embossing powder.

Once the dye is taped down, I run it through my die cutting machine.

It is important to make sure that the letters cut all the way through.

I pull my letters out of the dye and admire the results!

To finish my tag I used a darker green card stock behind my snowy letters.

I finished off my tag with a matching dark green bow.


 

For my next card I started with a card base made from the Circle Frames Die Set.

I chose the Super cute green and pink holly paper from Christmas Party Paper Pad


On top of this I have matching green card stock that has been altered with Distressed Oxide Spray.

the merry is from Merriest Christmas Die Set

I created the merry letters using the same technique as I used above.

For these letters I use clear embossing powder and Ranger Holographic Powder.

Once the card was assembled, I added a present from the Gift Builder Die Set,

To finish this card a couple of cheerful stars.


I hope you enjoyed my cards and tags!

Our fun new products will be available.

Friday, October 17

Have an awesome day!

Stay crafty my friends

Newton's Nook Designs Christmas Release

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

 I am so excited to share FOUR NEW products coming
 to you just in time for holiday card making.


First off, we have the Essential Tags Die Set.

Combining this with the Christmas Party Paper Pad is going to make some awesome tags!



I die cut this out this tag using the Essential Tags Die Set
After the tag was die cut, I ran a Gray marker around the edge just to give the tag a bit of dimension.

I dotted each light with a bit of Glossy Accents to give the lights shinny holiday flair.

To add some shimmer, I used Crystal Stickles and added a little glitter in the loops of the wire.




As the tag was drying, I created a sentiment place by using

the Smallest rectangle from the Basic Frames Die Set.

The Christmas Greeting Stamp Set is going to be your go to for the Holidays!

The “joyful christmas greeting” sentiment fits perfectly in this square.

I added this to the front of my tag with foam tape.

A bit of ribbon on top completes the look.



For my next source of inspiration, I started with Frames and Tags Die Set.

I cut out my card base and then used a simple white border for my frame.

Choosing paper from Christmas Party Paper Pad I popped that into the larger frame.

For the smaller frame I just used the coordinating paper on the back.

Next, I chose my package style using the Gift Builder Die Set

These gifts were so fun to make!




I chose colors to coordinate with the rustic colors in the paper.

I did not have green glitter card stock to match those lovely rustic colors.

I ended up making my own glitter cardstock by

using Holographic Embossing Powder and green card stock.



This super cute detail ended up being the cherry on the project.

For The final panel in this card front I used a sentiment from Christmas Greeting Stamp Set.

 

I hope you enjoyed my cards and tags!

Our fun new products will be available.

Spooktastic Good Card

 

Hello Newton Fans!

Today I am sharing this SPOOKTASTIC fun card!


 

This card is effortless to make and features the NEW Card Layout 5 Die.

To get started on this card I decided on Black card stock to be the base of this card.

Using Card Layout 5 Die, I passed the black cardstock through the

cutting machine and created the borders. I also created a card base.

the bat paper from the Halloween Time Paper Pad was chosen to be my insert paper.

I cut this paper out using Card Layout 5 Die and then started gluing in all the pieces.

With the card front complete, I placed the card front aside with

a stamping brick on top to set up the glue.

Next, I die cut out the Haunted House Die out of black cardstock.

In the Halloween Postage Sampler Stamp Set there is a spider web.

I use this stamp to place some web detail on the front of the house.

A simple trick of cutting out pieces of yellow card stock and

gluing them to the back of the house makes the windows look spooky.


To create a feature space for the haunted house I decided white card stock and

the smaller scalloped Oval from the Oval Frames Die Set.

The spooky greetings stamp from Halloween Postage Sampler Stamp is stamped

onto orange card stock, heat embossed and then die cut out.

Assembling this card is super easy!

I glued down my Oval card stock first.

Then added my Haunted House on top attached with foam tape.

The spooky greeting sentiment is also added on with foam tape.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Stay crafty everyone!

Falloween Release - Day 3

 


Day three preview has all the Fall Feels!

I just had to do a Shaped card.


To create my shaped card I chose the Oval Frames Die Set.

For the background I have paper from Autumn Meows Paper Pad

on top of that is the cutest scarecrow from Autumn Fields 

the crows in this stamp set are everything!!!

For the Pumpkin Tails Stamp Set


I stared this card out by dye cutting the Filigree Oval Frame Die Set out of orange card stock.

As I was trying to figure out how I wanted to layer this frame, when

 I stumbled across the red leaf paper from Autumn Meows Paper Pad

His paper looked really good behind the orange filigree and that is how this card front was created.

I use the kitties from Pumpkin Tails Stamp Sets

To finish this card, a simple banner made from the Frames and Flags Die Set.

This and all of the other fun NEW products

Will be available Friday, September 12 


Happy Shopping!

Falloween Release - Day 2

Hello Everybody!

Day two of our preview!

Check out these amazing new stamp sets!


I love these new stamp sets they are so perfect for tags.

AND>>>that what I have created.


 To start these tags I used a standard 4 ½ inch tag.

To that tag I taped a strip of low tack thermal paper.



Next, I used the leaves from the Autumn Postage Sampler

And the spider webs from the Halloween Postage Sampler

I stamped all over the tag with the stamps and then heat set

The images on the tag with clear embossing powder.



The next step is to cover your stamped image with your favorite Distress Oxide Spray.

I used Carved Pumpkin and Wilted Violet

Heat set that spray slightly and then peel up your tape.



Now we have an interesting negative space that we can fill in and create a scene.

For our fall tag we added on some more leaves and that cute pumpkin cup.



For the Halloween tag you know I had to use the haunted house and bats



To finish these tags off I used a sharpie to create a black border

around the edge and add it on some matching twine.

Hope you enjoy my take on this fun new product!

This stamp set and all of the other Autumn Postage Sampler

new products will be available. Friday, September 12
