Newton's Nook Designs Frosty Folks

Hello everyone, I sure have missed making cards to share with you, so I decided to write a blog post before Christmas to say hello and share a project I made with some new Newton's Nook Designs products.  

To begin with, I couldn't contain my excitement when I saw the brand new Mountain Stencil released in November.  I live in the foothills of the Appalachians and the views I see from my backyard are stunning.  However, heading up to higher elevations and seeing the mountains from a lookout point is truly spectacular and now fairly easy for me to recreate the look using this stencil.  So, needless to say I've got a lot of future plans for this mountain stencil!

For my background, I started by heat embossing a few snowflakes included in the stamp set.  I always do this first before inking. Then I chose a variety of purple and blue inks, starting at the top and working my way to the bottom, I created numerous mountain ranges and left the bottom white for the snowmen to sit on a bed of snow. I decided to add some extra flakes with my white gel pen and love how that turned out!

 

Frosty Folks

I then foam popped up this ADORABLE snowman image, Frosty Folks, which I Copic colored.  I enjoy coloring snowmen with striped hats, top hats, vests and patterned scarves. So this set was for me.  Plus, I love the versatility of being able to use this set all winter long.

I've linked up both Newton products used, for your browsing/shopping convenience. Thank you so much for stopping by!  I hope you enjoy your holidays in whatever special way you choose to celebrate! 

I've entered this project in the following challenges:

Newton's Nook Designs June Release - Day 3

Good morning Newton fans, today is day 3 of the June release at Newton's Nook Designs and we're here with 2 new stamp/die sets to show you today. For my first card I created this scene using Newton's Picnic. This is now one of my top favorite NND images, I just love that little kitty butt poking out of the picnic basket!  

So I Copic colored my image, and created my scene on this circular die cut.  I also cut out some grass using Land Borders Die Set and glued it onto my circle.  I added some light blue ink blending behind my image and foam popped my main image over it.  I stamped a few ants on the grass and added a dragonfly and butterfly and a few clouds from Newton Hangs Out.  

So moving on to my second card, I've used the new Newton Hangs Out stamp/die set to create this fun little scene! I started with some happy diagonal striped paper and layered on the rounded rectangle from the Frames and Flags Die Set.  I colored up my main Newton image and added a little yellow/green ink blending behind it.  I also added a dragonfly from the Newton's Picnic set and stamped the sentiment onto the smallest circle from the Frames Squared Die Set

So for my first card I did some ombre inking and added a little bit of water splatter.  I cut out a banner from Frames and Flags Die Set, then Copic Colored my image and popped it on top of the banner using foam tape.  I stamped my sentiment, which is so much fun!  Yes, let's skip those dishes!  And then finished off with some pretty enamel dots!

For my second card, I used this super cute laundry basket image.  Don't you just love Newton snuggling in the clean warm blankets?  I also used a banner from Frames and Flags Die set to stamp my image, then I also stenciled the Tumbling Hearts Stencil using green ink for a tone on tone look with a two tone purple frame!

Newton's Nook Designs May Release - Day 2

Hi all and welcome to day 2 of the Newton's Nook Designs May reveals!  Today we're featuring the sweetest little floral set called Dainty Daisies! 

This was such an easy card and boy I'm loving the results! The daisies are so whimsical and so much fun to color, I'd say this set was a must have for my floral stamp collection!

I started by diecutting an oval and distress inking the background.  I copic colored 2 of the daisy clusters, then arranged and layered them over the inked oval. I distress inked my orange background and added a little water splatter for fun, then mounted all on a turquoise base. A few sequins and twine, and my card was complete

Newton's Nook Designs - Winston's Tee Time - Father's Day Card

Hi everyone!  I'm here today with a card that I made for my Dad for Father's Day, I know we're still a month away or so, but I like to work ahead and have something ready to go with a gift that I'll be mailing to him.

My dad is a golfer, so Winston's Tee Time is the PERFECT set to make a card for him with!  I used the stamp and die combo, and Copic colored my images.  I used the Land Borders Die Set to cut the grassy hills from plain and plaid green paper, which I layered, altering them. I added a few flags and a blue plaid background.

For my sentiment, I heat embossed the white text on a black piece of cardstock and cut it out with my paper trimmer.  Then I stamped the rest of the sentiment on the smallest circle die cut from the Frames Squared Die Set!

Thanks so much for joining me today, I hope you're enjoying feeling creative.  Pop on over to the NND shop to check out this set and MORE!

I started by Copic Coloring these sweet critters from the Sending Hugs stamp and coordinating die set. I used a tone on tone look to stencil my background using the Bokeh Stencil set.  Then I die cut two banners from the Frames & Flags Die Set and stamped my sentiment on it. I added some twine and a little colored heart and my card is ready for mailing!

Hello and welcome to Day 2 of the Newton's Nook Designs April Release! Today we're featuring a new stamp/die combo named "Cluck". Check out the images in this sweet set, I just love these chickens!  And Rooster! My first card today, I created a birthday scene card. On an A2 sized card base, I stenciled white clouds on a light blue piece of card stock using the Cloudy Sky Stencil. Then I cut and distress inked the hills and grass from the Land Borders Die Set.

I Copic colored my Rooster, Chickens and Eggs, I also die cut the new Fence Die Set and stamped my top sentiment on the new Speech Bubble Die Set and the "It's your Birthday" was white heat embossed and added below to look like the Rooster is crowing it out while perched on top of the fence!

For my second card, I used nothing but the new Cluck Stamp/die combo. I created my background using the tiny chicken egg stamp and then die cut and Copic colored the chickens in the same 5 rainbow color combinations as the eggs. I just thought that sentiment was too cute and had to make a card featuring it!
