Newton's Nook Designs September Release - Day 4

Hi everyone and welcome to day 4, our final day of reveals at Newton's Nook Designs! Today I'm showing off a brand new sentiment stamp set, Thankful Thoughts. You can see an image of the set below. In my first card, I've used one of the sentiments from this set. Plus the raccoon image from Harvest Tails that we revealed yesterday. I've also created my background using the other brand new stencil, Pumpkin Patch by distress inking over the stencil and adding a little paint splatter over the top. I tied some twine and foam popped my image over it.

On this release day, we're also showing you the brand new 2x3 sets, Slothy Coffee and Tea Rex. I chose to make a card using Slothy Coffee and used the Sunscape Stencil for the background and the postage die from the Framework Die set as the base. I love this sentiment and yes, I feel kind of Slothy every morning and really need my coffee!

Newton's Nook Designs August Release - Day 3

Hi everyone! Day 3 of the August Reveals and now we're getting to my favorite time of year, when all the Halloween/Fall products start showing up. I was so excited when I saw this set, Hoppy Halloween for the first time! I just LOVE bunnies, don't you? And ahem..how about that Flying Bat stencil??? Wow!

So I took a light kraft piece of cardstock in A2 size. I used the Sunscape Stencil to first make the darker rays with Frayed Burlap Distress Ink. Then I turned my stencil so that what I just shaded was covered, and I used Mustard Seed Distress Ink to add some moon rays! I die cut a moon using a circle die, then added some shading around the perimeter of the moon.

I cut a grassy hill using the Land Borders Die set, added some Crushed Olive Distress ink and some water splatter. I cut a black banner from the Frames and Flags die set and white heat embossed the sentiment. I Copic colored my bunny image, then popped it up over the banner.

I honestly love my first Halloween card of the season! I plan on sending it to one of my nephews with a little treat inside :)

Thanks for joining me today, make sure to comment on all the DT's blogs for your chance to win!
