Newton's Nook Designs June Release - Day 3

Hello Everybody!

It is day one of three of our New Release!

We have three amazing NEW products for you to play with.

Using these three latest items I created these cards.

For the Barn Die Set I started my card by creating a

 base using the Circle Frames Die Set and white card stock.

To create the card front I used a piece of

blue Paisley and green gingham cardstock from the NEW Farmyard Paper Pad.

 Overlapping the pieces of paper and then using the sea border dye die cut them together.

 The paper now fits together like a puzzle.

I use the scalloped circle frames die to line everything up and check my placement

for where I was going to put my barn when the card was finished.

Once I was satisfied with my barn placement, I removed the barn die and then taped down the

 Circle Frames Die to the two pieces of paper and ran it through my die cut machine.

Even though this is a few different steps to die cut  the process creates

 a great focal point for the background of my card front.

Next, I turn my attention to die-cutting out all the pieces for the barn.

I assembled my barn pieces on a separate piece of white card stock and glued everything down.

The sentiment comes from the Moo Stamp Set and I use the banner 

from the Frames and Flag Die Set.

To assemble this card, I glued my die cut card stock to the front of my card.

 Then, attached the banner to the back of the barn and then popped all the pieces up with foam tape.

I added drops of golden stickles to my hay and this shaped card is complete.

 

FOR THE TRACTOR DIE SET

I started by choosing two pieces of paper from the Farmyard Paper Pad that compliments each other.

Using the largest stitched rectangle die from the Basic Frames Die Set to cut both pieces out together.

After stacking the two pieces, I used a sharp Rotary blade to divide the pieces up into four triangular sections.

I reassembled and glued those sections down onto white card stock creating two different card fronts.

I placed the two card fronts aside to dry and then die cut all the pieces of the tractor.

Assembling the Tractor Die Set was so much fun I added a

bit of bling by using silver card stock for the stack and light.

The stitched rectangle from the Basic Frames Die Fits perfectly

 inside the Frames and Flags Scalloped Die.

This made deciding my card base quick and easy.

I created my card base with light-yellow card stock.

I chose one of the created card fronts and hand cut it out.

Assembling this card was easy, I added my card front to the base.

To create a place for my tractor I used one of the NEW Hexagon Dies and white card stock.

That was glued directly on to the card front.

I glued my tractor on to the hexagon next.

Finally, I created simple sentiment banners from the Farming Fun Stamp Set

and added those to the front of the card with foam tape.

 I hope you enjoyed my take these latest items that we have on this release.

This and all the other fun latest items are available June 22^nd.

Inky Paw's Challenge 170 - 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.

Farming Fun Stamp Set

Time for Coffee Stamp Set

Argyle Stencil Set

Frames and Flags Die Set

So happy to be back with the Inky Paw’s Challenge after a

 VERY LONG drive from Texas to Oregon.

On this very long drive the only thing that kept my going was coffee.

A truckload of coffee would have been nice!

To create this card, I started with a base of blue cardstock.

Using the Argyle Stencil Set and Versamark ink I stamped on my pattern.

I used clear embossing powder to heat set my lines and get them to stand out.

Next, I die cut the argyle lines cardstock out using the scalloped edge die

 from the Frames and Flags Die Set to make my card front.

Because I was pressed for time, a simple strip of white card stock across

the front will be where I place my truck and sentiment.

I used the rest of the challenge colors on the truck and coffee cup.

I love the way the coffee cup from Time for Coffee fits in the bed of the truck.

Imagine this truck rolling down the street!

And that completes my take on this challenge

Now it is your turn!

Inky Paws Challenge - Autumn Theme

 

HAPPY MONDAY!

Who is ready for a NEW Inky Paws Challenge?

 I just LOVE autumn!

I been in crafty rut lately.

As makers we always look for inspiration everywhere.

 Why not use the challenge picture and create a card based on it?

The background was created using the FRAMES AND FLAGS DIE SET

and papers from my stash.

On top of that, I have the 3¼ stitched circle from the

 CIRCLE FRAMES DIE set to create my feature circle.

Grass under the truck was created by back cutting

a piece of the stitched circle and inky up the piece with Distress Ink.

The feature stamp is from FARMING FUN STAMP SET.

Fall colors are the best!

I used those colors and the leaves and pumpkin from the

Paw-tumn Newton Stamp to add that fall flare.

Checkout how the pumpkin fits perfectly in the truck bed.

Finally, I used a sentiment from the FALL ROUNDABOUT STAMP SET

and the BANNER TRIO DIES to create a place for the sentiment.

I hope you enjoyed my (literal) take on our Autumn Theme.

  May this card inspire you to use your favorite Newton’s Nook Stamps

along with the sketch and GET CRAFTY!
