A Llama Birthday

 

 Hello Newton’s Nook Fans!

Diane Morales here sharing a Llama good Birthday card for Designer’s Nook.

  

So many birthdays this time of year for our family.

Today I am sharing a fun birthday card I created for a very special

 Birthday using a few of my favorite Newtons Nook Product.

 

For this card I used

Lovable Llamas

Birthday Mice (hat only)

Birthday Party 6x6 Paper Pad

A7 Frames and Banner

Bookmark Die (banner only)

 To start this card, I used the frame in the A7 Frames and Banner

To die cut 3 frames out of white cardstock.

Once cut, I glue the three frames together and place them aside with weight on to dry.

Thie idea for this card was to inset the printed cardstock into each window.

The pops of color coming from the windows and everything else to be neutral.

The hardest part of the card is choosing the paper that I wanted to use.

the Birthday Party 6x6 Paper Pad became the paper pad of choice.

But which color??

Thumbing through the pad I came across a slice of the confetti paper that you see in the middle.

I love the colors and that gave me the spark for the layout of the card.

I used the frame in the A7 Frames and Banner to die cut out the paper I chose.

I also created a card base that was slightly larger than the white frame what I created.

The first thing was to glue the frame that I created to the card base.

Next, I added the confetti pieces to the middle part of the frame.

The blue ballon on the left.

The yellow presents on the right.

These pieces are inset, so I glued the back and wiggled them in.

Stamping, coloring, and die cutting images from Lovable Llamas came next.

I used the colors from the cardstock to color the image.

I used black, gray, and white to color the Llama and the extras.

I attached all these pieces to the front of the card with foam tape.

The Llama needed a bit extra.

I started thumbing through my Newton’s stamps and decided on the party hat

 From Birthday Mice that fits so well on the Llamas Head.

For a final touch I used the banner from the Bookmark Die.

I die cut the banner first.

Stamped my sentiment

Then I ran the banner back through the die to shorten the banner to fit on the card.

I also added tiny gems in the confetti panel for a touch of sparkle.

That is my card!

 

 Thanks for stopping by

 Hope you have an awesome day

Stay crafty my friends!

Inky Paw's Challenge 201 - Sketch Challenge

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We have a NEW challenge coming your way.

Here is my take on the challenge.

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

Birdhouse Greetings

Birthday Party 6x6 Paper Pad

Oval Frames Die Set

Spring Blooms Oval (sentiment)

  Super fun and easy card coming to you today for the Inky Paw’s Challenge.

I stared with a card base of 4 x 5 ½ blue cardstock

And a rectangle 3 ½ x 4 ½ made with the same blue cardstock.

To the bottom of the card base I added a ¾ inch strip of the

blue balloons from the Birthday Party 6x6 Paper Pad.

To the bottom of the rectangle, I added a 1-inch strip of birthday paper

and a 1/2 strip of confetti cardstock also from the Birthday Party 6x6 Paper Pad.

I adhered the rectangle to the front of the card and placed

a stamp block on top so that Everything would dry flat.

Next, I die cut my oval out of white cardstock and the Oval Frames Die Set.

This is attached to the front of the card.

I stamped, colored and die cut my images from Birdhouse Greetings.

I stated the placement on the front of my card with the birdhouse first.

Attaching it to my card with foam tape.

My sentiment from Spring Blooms Oval  came next.

Then, I added a few more birds and a bit of grass

I am not good at twine, so I created a bow and added that to the left side of the birdhouse.

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

Inky Paw's Challenge 192 - Sketch Challenge

 

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We have a NEW challenge coming your way.

Here is my take on the challenge.

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

Sky High Celebrations

A7 Frame and Banners Die

Oval Frames Die Set

Birthday Party 6x6 Paper Pad 

For my take on the challenge, I started this idea with two ideas, birthday, and color.

Given the shape of the challenge sketch, I knew that

using the A7 Frame and Banners Die was necessary.

I die cut the 3-window box shape out of white cardstock.

I die cut several layers to stack together to create a nice solid card front.

For the insets of the windows, I picked 3 colors of present paper from the

Birthday Party 6x6 Paper Pad.

I assembled all the pieces of my card front together and set it aside for the glue to dry.

For the next step I stamped out the image from Sky High Celebrations.

I colored in my image and die cut it out.

I also die cut out the smaller scalloped oval from Oval Frames Die Set,

and added a sentiment to it.

To start my card assembly, I created a custom card base for my front.

Before I attached the two together, I tied on a bit of matching twine to the bottom.

After attaching the card front to the base, I adhered my scalloped oval,

and then added my stamped image over that.

For finishing touched I added on stickles for a bit of bling.

Also, added three enamel dots.

This completes my take on this challenge.

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