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.

Let's Get Batty

For this first day of October let us get Batty!

 

It is officially my birthday month and to start things off with a bang!

I have this super cute, shaped card perfect for the Halloween Season.

 

For this project I used  

Batty Newton

Halloween Party Paper Pad

Hexagon Frame Die

Frames and Flags Die Set

 To start this project off I chose paper from the Halloween Party Paper Pad.

I decided on bat paper with the pink background to be the card front.

Using the Hexagon Frame Die , I created a card base with

 black cardstock and the scalloped hexagon die.

To create the card front I used the stitched hexagon die with the paper I chose.

Once everything was glued together, I placed the card aside with a weight on top for it to stay flat.

Next, I stamped my images from Batty Newton.

I colored in Newton using teals and grays to coordinate with the pink background.

Once I was done coloring, I die cut out my image.

I also used one of the flags from the Frames And Flags Die Set 

to create a place for the sentiment.

I chose the placement of my image and tucked the sentiment behind.

The sentiment is glued down and the image is popped up with foam tape.

To finish this card, I stamped and die cut a couple of bats to add to the front of the card.

I also added a couple of black gems for to give the card sparkle

This is a fun shaped card that was easy to make!

The bat paper from the Halloween Party Paper Pad

 and Batty Newton are the perfect combo for your next Halloween card.

  Hope you have an awesome day

 Stay crafty my friends!
