Newton's Nook April Release - Day 1

Day ONE of the April Release

Check out this cool new die!  

This NEW die is so inspirational I had to go all in!




The idea for this card is SPRING!

I grabbed two of my favorite Newton’s Nook spring products.

Hop Into Spring

Pastel Basics 6 X 6 PaperPad

I chose my three colors of the paper pad and then die cut each color out using 

the NEW Lattice Die.

Once everything was peeled up onto press and seal,

I used Lattice Die one more time to die cut out my frame out of white card stock.

With everything die-cut out it is now time to assemble.



It is important to remember not to overthink the process,

this is crafting and we are supposed to have fun!

I started by gluing my white card stock frame onto a separate piece of cardstock.

Then I started individually piecing in my colored background into the lattice cutouts.

 After glueing all my pieces in, I put a stamping block on my background so that the glue can set up.

Next, I stamped colored and die-cut out my piece from Hop Into Spring

I also use the Circle Frames Die Set to die cut a background 4 my image.

I also made a simple handmade banner for my sentiment.




To assemble my card I trimmed the edges of the Lattice Die card front.

This is adhered to a card base made with light yellow card stock.

Next, I attached my scallops circle to the front of my card.

I glued my banner behind my image and attached the image to the front of the card.

I completed this card with some matching gems. 

This completes my take on the Lattice Die.

This and all of the other fun new products will be available.

Newton's Nook Designs Spring Release - Day 3

 


Hello Everybody!

It is the final Day of our New Release!

For this day we have TWO amazing NEW PRODUCTS

 
Hyacinth Stamp Set + Coordinating Die Sets,

and

 Daisies Die Set

 You all know I love flowers!

The Hyacinth Stamp Set is the perfect add-on for spring flower stamps.

Using the stamp set I made this card.

I kept things simple by using the stamp set and stamping out the background.



Next, I colored all the Hyacinth’s that I stamped on to the cardstock.

To create a card base for this card I used the large

 scalloped die from the Frames And Flags Die Set.

I die cut my card base out of purple card stock to match the theme.

Next, I took my Hyacinth background and cut it down to 3 ¾ by 4 ¾ create my card front.

To break things up a bit I use the stitched hexagon dye from the Hexagon Frames Die Set



 Die-cut with vellum to break up all the color and add a backdrop.

Next, I stamped, colored and die-cut out a Hyacinth for the front of the card.

The banner from the Frames And Flags Die Set is a perfect place for my sentiment.

A couple of matching gems for bling and this card is done.

For the Daisies Die Set

I die-cut all my daisy pieces first.

I decided to assemble my daisies first and see how the card develops.

I used orange and pink card stock and layered the pieces up with foam tape.

 the teal gingham paper from the Pastel Basics Paper Pad is a great match for these colors



I cut one 3 ½ x 5 rectangle of this paper to make my card front.

I attached this to a card base made with matching card stock.

To layer everything up I used the banner from the Basic Frames Die Set.

I secured this piece in the center of my card and then added my daisies to the top.

I used the easter blessing post mark from Easter Postage Sampler Stamp 

as my sentiment for this card.

 

Happy Shopping!

 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Stay craft everyone!

Newton's Nook Designs Spring Release - Day 1

Welcome to the day ONE of our February Release

I am so excited to show you two of our fun new products

That you are going to love for spring crafting!

Today we are introducing

Easter Postage Sampler Stamp Set + Coordinating Die Set

AND

Happy Easter Die Set

I started things off with Easter Postage Sampler



Those carrots in the stamp set just got me!

The first thing I thought of was a little carrot garden.

To create this look I started with A tag made from Bookmark II Die

Simply basic blue card stock for the base of the tag because most of it is

 going to be covered with the layers of the "carrot patch".

To create a “garden” I used green stripe paper from Pastel Basics 6x6 Paper Pad

I took one piece of the card stock and divided it into two-inch strips.

Next, I use Sky Boarders Die set to create “hills” for the top of each of the strips.


Next, I chopped down all the strips.

The largest strip is 4 inches, the medium strip is 3 inches, and the final strip is 1 ½ inches.

I ran each of the strips back through the Bookmark II Die at the bottom of the die,

so that I can have a seamless look on all the layers of “garden” for my tag.

I glued all the strips down onto the front of my bookmark, leaving the

 top portion unglued so that I can insert my carrots.

Next, I stamped out my Bunny, carrots, and sentiment from the Easter Postage Sampler

I glued up the back of my carrots and slid those into my hills.



 I attached my Bunny to the front of the tag with foam tape 

and my sentiment at the bottom of the tag.

I felt like the tag needed some color, so I quickly stamped out a couple of flowers.

After coloring my flowers and cutting them out I added them to the front of the tag.

My next card features the NEW Happy Easter Die Set



This card could not be simpler than I started out by using the A2 Card Layout Die.

I chose bright colorful spring colors of card stock.

After cutting out my colors, I pieced everything together to make sure all the pieces fit.

 I then took the pieces out and using the flower stamps from the Easter Postage Sampler

Along with Versamark ink I stamped on my flowers.

After covering the flowers with clear embossing powder

 and heat setting I had this cool design to go around my centerpiece.

I created a card base out of white card stock,

The frame piece from A2 Card Layout Die. is glued onto the card first.

 All the colorful pieces are then glued back into their spot.



For the Happy Easter Die I chose black and white card stock.

After cutting the pieces out, I glued everything together and set this aside to dry.

Once dried this was added to the front of the card with foam tape.

To finish this card I added on a couple of Easter Lily stamps and a couple of white gems. 

Hope you enjoy my take on these fun new products!

All these new products will be available. Friday, February 28 

Happy Shopping!

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Stay crafty everyone!

Newton's Nook Designs April Release - Bubble Tea

 


Hello Everybody!

We are on the fourth day of our new release!

These two new sets will bring some tea-rrific joy to your life.

1st for the cat lovers

  Newton’s Bubble Tea

For the dog lovers

Puppy’s Bubble Tea Stamp



Using these stamp sets I created two cards.




Newton’s Bubble Tea I started my card by using the teal

 heart paper from the Pastel Basics 6 X 6 Paper Pad.

I cut out a 2 1/4 by 5 strip of paper and glued it to the front of a standard size teal card.

Next, I use the banner die from the Basic Frames Die Set.

I die cut this out with white card stock.

 I stamped my sentiment directly to this banner using a sentiment from the stamp set.

The banner is glued directly to the front of the card.

Next, I stamped my images from Newton’s Bubble Tea and colored them in.


I used my favorite ube bubble tea as reference.

Once I was finished, I die cut out my images using

the coordinating dies and adhered them to my banner with foam tape.

 A few hearts from the stamp set and a couple of matching enamel dots complete this card.

 

For the Puppy Bubble Tea Stamp Set I created a card base that will 

fit the Frames and Tags Die Set.

I cut out the frames and tags die set from white card stock first.

For my second pass I used the purple striped card sock from the Bright Basics 6 x 6 Paper Pad.

I assembled everything on top of a second piece of card stock 

and then glued this to the front of my card.

I stamped and colored the images from Puppy’s Bubble Tea Stamp using Thai tea as a reference.


I die cut my images using the coordinating dies and added them to the front of my card with foam tape.

 To finish this card, I stamped, colored and die cut some of the hearts that

are included and added those to the front of the card.

 This concludes my take on these fun bubble themed products!

 This and all the other new products will be available on Friday April 19th.

 

Happy Shopping!

Newton's Nook Designs April Release - Cherry Blossoms

 


Hello Everybody!

We are on the third day of our new release!

Continuing with the flower theme we have the

Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set


Using this stamp set I created this shaped card.

 


 

When I saw this stamp set, I knew it had to be a shaped card.

I started this card by creating a circle card base with pink card stock

and a basic circle shape die from my stash.

For the card front I decided on the striped, pink card stock 

from the Pastel Basics 6 x 6 Paper Pad.

This is die cut out using the stitch circle from the Circle Frames Die Set.

I assembled the piece of this card and placed it aside with a weight on top to dry.

Next, I stamped out the cherry blossoms stamp set and

 colored my stamped blossoms using traditional cherry blossom colors.

I also die cut a place for my sentiment using a stitch square from the Basic Frames Die Set.

I stamped on my sentiment to that stitch square and glued it into the center of my card.



Then I added my cherry blossoms around the sentiment until I liked what I saw.

To complete this card, I added on a bit of pink pearls embellishment.

 This concludes my take on these beautiful cherry blossoms themed products!

 This and all the other new products will be available on Friday April 19th.

 

Happy Shopping!
