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

Inky Paw's Challenge 193 - Spring Theme

 

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We are at the halfway point of this current challenge.

Here is my take on the challenge.

For this challenge I used the following Newton’s Nook Design’s product.

 Tulips

Basketweave Stencil

Oval Frames Die Set

A7 Frames and Banner Die

Frames and Flags Die Set

I started this card by making a card base using the

 Large Scalloped Rectangle in the Frames and Flags Die Set.

To create the card front, I used the Basketweave Stencil

My colors of choice Saltwater Taffy and Picked Raspberry.

With the stencil adhered down to white cardstock,

I blend my colors staring at each end to meet in the middle.

I pulled off the stencil and put the card stock aside to dry.

Next, I stamped, colored, and die cut out the Tulip for the front of the card.

I also die cut out an oval out of vellum using the Oval Frames Die Set.

My basketweave card front is now dry, and I die cut this out using the Large Scalloped Rectangle.

 This is going to give me a nice, shaped card when finished.

To make sure that you can see thru onto the background, I adhered the tulip to the

oval vellum shape first and then used the shadow of the tulip to adhere to the front of the card.

To create the sentiment for the card I used the round banner from the

A7 Frames and Banner Die.

I stamped on my sentiment toward one end and carefully trimmed

the other end of the banner to fit behind the tulip.

I carefully lined up my card front to the card base and glued everything together.

For I final touch I added on some matching enamel dots and added

 a bit of shimmer pen of the top of the tulips.

This completes my take on this challenge.

I Hope this gives you a bit of inspiration for your next project.

Inky Paw's Challenge 191 - Color Challenge

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We are at the halfway point of this current challenge.

 
Here is my take on the challenge.

 For this challenge I used the following Newton’s Nook Design’s product.

Dainty Daisies

Basketweave Stencil

Coffee House Stories 6x6 Paper Pad

 For this challenge I stared with a basic tag shape from my stash.

I used 110lb white cardstock for my tag.

Heavy weight cardstock is necessity for the embossing with a stencil.

For this next step I grabbed my Basketweave Stencil.

I lined up my stencil on my tag and taped the stencil down.

I ran my stencil and paper thru my die cutting machine.

with my embossing plate and Vola! A beautifully embossed tag.

Next, I rummaged thru my Newton’s paper and found a leftover square.

of gray paper with white hearts from Coffee House Stories 6x6 Paper Pad.

I added that to the front of the tag with glue.

My stamped image of choice is Dainty Daisies

Who does not love yellow daisies!

After I colored in the daisies and die cut them out, I added.

them to the front of the tag with foam tape.

The final step is to create a banner with red cardstock.

I stamped on a sentiment and embossed with white cardstock.

I also added on some white droplets to match the center of the daisy.

This completes my take on this challenge.

I Hope this gives you a bit of inspiration for your next project.

Inky Paw's Challenge 175 - One Layer Challenge

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We have a NEW challenge coming your way.

It is one-layer card time!

For this challenge I used the following Newton’s Nook Design’s product.

Lemon Twist

Basketweave Stencil

Circle Frames Die

This was a hard one!

It is no secret that one-layer cards are not my jam.

However, I am always up for a challenge and formulated a plan.

I was going to used texture to give this card some depth.

I stared by making of a circle using masking paper and the Circle Frames Die.

this masked off area will be where my featured design will end up being stamped.

First, I must create a background.

I chose to make a smashed background using Twisted Citron and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink.

I smashed the ink pads onto a gel plate, sprayed a bit of water

and smashed my card front on the ink. I used my heat to dry the background so

the next part of the card does not bleed together.

I used the Basketweave Stencil and Mowed Lawn Distress Ink

 to add texture to the top and bottom of the card.

I need this part of the card to dry completely before moving on,

 so I decided to work on the feature circle.

I gently removed the masking paper and stamped of the large lemon.

  

I carefully colored in the lemon and leaf, and I also stamp on my sentiment.

With card now dry, I was ready to use the Basket Weave Stencil and texture paste

This added a bit more layers to the top and bottom of the card.

For the final layer of the card, I used the peel in the stamp set and clear embossing ink.

Once the peels were stamped on, I add clear embossing powder and heat set.

I do love how this card turned out!

All the different textures on the card are so fun to look at.

I hope this inspires you to try out this fun challenge.
