September Feature - Halloween Pile Slimline

Hello Newton’s Nook Fans!

Coming to you today with fun fall inspiration Using the NEW Halloween Time 6x6 Paper Pad.

As I was flipping through the paper pad, I came upon the spiders and the diagonal page.

Thought to myself “those spiders would make a fun creepy background”.

I wanted this to be a large background, so I chose the Scalloped Edge from the

Slimline Frames and Portholes Die to be my card base and front.

I sliced of a 2 1/2-inch portion of the paper, and then trimmed my paper down

to fit inside of the scalloped slimline.

I then trimmed the paper diagonally between the spiders.

I dry fit everything on the front of my card to make sure everything fit nice and clean, and

 spaced out my strips and left a bit of black showing to add interest to the background.

   I inked all my edges with Black Soot Distress Ink before placing the pieces on the card front.

My stamp of choice is Halloween Pile.

Stamping, coloring, and die cutting my image came next.

I used the small, scalloped oval from the Oval Frames Die Set as a place to put my image.

The banner die that is in the Slimline Frames and Window Die was placed in the upper right

 corner with my sentiment. To finish the card, I stamped a bunch of bats from Halloween Pile.

 I covered the bats with black glitter embossing powder and heat set.

Once the bats were dry, I added them to the front of my card.

 

Hope you enjoyed my Halloween slimline card.

All the links to the product are in the blog post above.

Stay crafty my friends!

Newton's Nook Designs Birthday Release - Day 1

 

Hello Newton’s Nook Fans!

Welcome to day one of our July Release in celebration of our 10-year Birthday!!

Also, my 1^st official post as part of the design team!

(cue the confetti)

For our first day of our celebration

 we have 3 AMAZING NEW products for you to get your Paw’s Inky with!

Let me tell you it was hard not to show this cuteness to everybody!!!

Using the NEW product, I created the following card.

I am obsessed with the NEW Birthday Meows Paper Pad.

The colors and paper patterns in the pad are so dreamy!

I kept this card simple with a card base of raspberry cardstock.

On top of that a 2 ½ inch strip of the confetti dot cardstock.

The oval from the Oval Frames Die Set Is cut out of two layers white card stock,

and serves as a background for the extremely cute 3-layer cake image from

Newton’s Birthday Delight.

I used the confetti stamp in Newton’s Birthday Delight to add interest around the oval.

To finish my card, I used the banner from Slimline Frames and Windows Die

This is a perfect fit for the sentiment from Newton’s Birthday Delight.

After a swish of my sparkle pen on the image and a couple of enamel dots, this card is done.

Inky Paw's Challenge 187

 

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We are at the halfway point of this current challenge.

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

Christmas Puppies

NEW Christmas Time 6x6 Paper Pad

Slimline Frames and Window Die

Welcome everyone!

The first thing I did was go thru my stash of die cut tags.

I found a large red tag.

A medium white tag

And a small green tag.

I also grabbed the Christmas Time 6x6 Paper Pad.

Now to put everything together.

For the small green tag, I chose matching paper from the paper pad.

I glued the paper over the top of the tag and set the tag aside to dry.

While the glue is drying, I stamped, colored and die cut out the

 images from the Christmas Puppies Stamp set.

Next, I die cut the banner from the Slimline Frames and Window Die.

I added the sentiment and added this to the front of the tag.

I trimmed up the edges of the tag and using a similar color of my markers

 to cleaned up the white edge with a bit of color.

I also added my image to the front popped up with foam tape.

I finished this tag with some ribbon and turned my attention to the large tag.

I love the Holly paper from the Christmas Time 6x6 Paper Pad.

It matched so well with the red tag.

After cutting a 2 x 4 ½ piece of paper I attached it to the front of the tag.

I decided to use the white tag for the front, so I stamped on a sentiment.

I added my image on top of the tag with foam tape.

I finished the second tag with ribbon at the top.

 This completes my take on this challenge.

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

Inky Paw's Challenge 187

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We have a NEW challenge coming your way.

 

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

NEW Snowflake Oval

NEW Holiday Heights

Slimline Frames and Window Die

Oval Frames Die Set

To get this card started I created a card base using the Scalloped oval

from the Oval Frames Die Set and mint cardstock.

I stamped the Snowflake Oval next.

Before the ink dried, I added a bit of holographic embossing powder

 in spots on the snowflakes and heat set.

This gave the card a bit of bling when the card is moved around.

I added a bit of color to the oval with a mint-colored marker.

I used the Oval Frames Die Set to cut out the Snowflake Oval and glue it on my card.

Next, I stamped, colored and die cut the cats from the Holiday Heights Stamp Set.

I also used the banner from the Slimline Frames and Window Die.

This is where I stamped my sentiment.

I assembled my card by adding my sentiment banner to the card front first.

I added the kitties on next popping up this image with foam tape.

To finish this card, I added Glossy Accents to ornaments on the tree.

I used Stickles to the garland and star on the tree.

This completes my take on this challenge.

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