Newton's Nook Designs Birthday Party - Day 2

Welcome Newton Nook Fans

It is day two of our sneak peeks.

Check out these fun NEW dies.

Now you can make your own cat or dog!

Here is my take on these three NEW dies!

For the cat die I used the Basic Frames Die Set to create the card front for this card.

My paper of choice is the Birthday Meows Paper Pad

After choosing my pieces of paper from this super cute paper pad,

I die cut out my pieces and layered everything together.

Now to make the cat.

I decided on a light gray colored cat for the front of the card.

I used the Cat Builder Die Set.

Following the instructions I die cut out all of my pieces for the cat.

Assembly on the cat was super easy and a lot of fun!

Before adhering the pieces, I took one of my C3 Gray Copic markers and

added shadows around the edging and darker lines on the ears and tail.

I used the Birthday Accessories Die Set to create a party hat and balloon

that will go on the front of the card with the cat.

Now that all my pieces are ready, I added the cat the card first and the added on the Accessories.

Using matching Sickles too I added some bling to the cat's accessories.

For the dog card I creates a card base and card front using

the Hexagon Frames Die Set along with the Birthday Time Paper Pad.

After cutting and assembling my pieces for this card,

I decided the I should have a brown dog on the front of my card.

I die cut all the pieces using the Dog Builder Die Set

I used the same technique by adding shadows using E43 Copic marker.

Then I followed the instructions to assemble my dog.

Once the dog was added to the front of my card.

I used the Birthday Accessories Die Set to die cut out a cupcake.

Once I assembled, I added details to the cupcake and attached the cupcake to the front of the card.

I had a ton of fun creating these cards. The cat and dog die are easy to put together.

You will have tons of fun creating your own little pets.

I hope you enjoyed my take on these new die sets and try them out for yourselves.

Newton’s Nook Designs Birthday Party!

Welcome Newton Nook Fans

It is day one of our sneak peeks.

Check out these fun NEW dies.

Using the new die sets I made this card.

Staring this card off with the Oval Frames Die Set for the base.

The paper I chose is from Halloween Party Paper Pad; I just love plaid colors!

Once the card base was completed, I set the set the card base aside to dry.

Next, I started assembling my cake. I chose the color scheme for the cake

by matching the plaid background for the card.

I cut out all my pieces using the Cake Builder Die Set.

Following the instructions I assembled my cake.

The cake was so fun and was easy to assemble.

I love to take my time and add each piece, which is very relaxing for me.

I thought the black Pedestal for the cake was a bold choice,

But I love the way that it goes so well with the plaid background.

Next step was to add some details.

I used my POSCA markers and added dots to the cake and the pedestal.

With the cake now complete, I add the piece to the front of the card.

To finish this card, I used the NEW Birthday Greetings Stamp Set and

one of the banners From the Banner Trio Die Set.

For the last step of this card I created candles for the top of the cake with the

Cake Builder Die Set. I used yellow Stickles to make my candles glisten.

I hope that you are inspired by this take on this fun new die set.
