Birthday Gift Card Holder | Newton’s Nook Designs

Happy Tuesday! Welcome back to the blog! Sharing a project today to jump into summer, cause I am 100% over the cold temperatures here in the NW. I used an older Newton’s Nook Designs‘ stamp set, Summer Scoops to create a fun gift card holder.

To create this gift card holder, I started by stamping some of the images from the Summer Scoops stamp set with copic friendly black ink, and coloring it with copic markers. Once colored, I cut out the images using the coordinating die set.

I stamped and embossed a sentiment with white embossing powder on to black cardstock, once heat set I fussy cut it. I layered the images onto a vellum rectangle to ensure that it doesn’t blend into the pattern paper and added the sentiment on top of it.

I finished of the card by die cutting the gift card holder from sheets of the Springtime Paper Pad (use can also use an SVG file for this part) and added the ice cream die cuts, along with some sequins to finish of the project.

Please make sure to stop by the Newton’s Nook Designs Blog for more inspiration and don’t forget to tag #NewtonsNook or #NewtonsNookDesign on Instagram to share what you created!

Today’s stamps are my favorite from this release! They are perfect for my card making style!

To create this card I started by stamping the main car image from the along with the a few of the smaller images, and colored them using copic markers. Once colored, I die cut them using the coordinating dies.

I wanted to add a little dimension to the back of the card, so I embossed the card front using the Petite Hearts Stencil, and I stamped and embossed a sentiment on to a vellum heart cut using one of the dies from Heart Frames Die Set. And finished off with clay heart confetti.

For my second card, I stamped the bunch of lilacs from the Lilacs stamp set and embossed it with gold embossing powder onto watercolor paper. I used watercolors to do a quick messy look, and dried it with a heat gun, and die cut it using the coordinating die.

To finished off the card I splattered black paint onto some blue card stock (let it dry and don’t be impatient like me! I added a cover die cut in Kraft card stock, added the lilac die cut along with a sentiment stamped and embossed on a stitched circle die cut. As always added some jewels to finish off the card.

Rainbow Florals | Newton’s Nook Designs

Happy Monday crafty friends! I hope that y’all had an amazing weekend! I got the morning off parenting on Sunday, and used the time to decorate a cake and celebrate a friends birthday with it! It was just the reset I needed for this busy week!

Today I am sharing a card over on the Newton’s Nook Design Blog sharing a glittery rainbow card using one die and one stamp! Yup, that’s it!

To create this card I started by inking up an A2 sheet of card stock using distress oxide inks to create a rainbow, then I covered it with Nuvo glitter drops, but I used it like a gel/mousse and spread it all over the inked background.

While the background dried, I used the flower die cut from the Slimline Frames & Portholes Die Set to create a pattern by die cutting multiple times, I also saved the full flower die cuts. Next I stamp and heat embossed a sentiment from the Heartfelt Blooms Stamp Set.

I added the die cut panel to the rainbow background, and added the whole flower die cuts after curling the petals to add some dimension and added rhinestones in the middle to finish off.

Please make sure to stop by the Newton’s Nook Designs Blog for more inspiration and don’t forget to tag #NewtonsNook or #NewtonsNookDesign on Instagram to share what you created!

Happy crafting!

‘Eidi’ Gift Card Holders | Ramadan

Jummah Mubarak and Hello crafty friends! Ellen Hutson recently shared a galaxy reel of mine and I was like Ooo! I need to make some more space-ish themed cards, but I’ve also been trying to make and share more Eid inspiration, so I combined the two ideas to make these space themed Eidi gift card holders!

To create these, I started by die cutting the Reverse Confetti Gift Card Holder Cover Panel from the new Islamic Designs Cardstock Pack from The Write Aesthetic. I also created a galaxy background (more details here) and die cut 2 pieces using the insert pieces on the Gift Card Holder Cover Panel.

For the first one, I embossed a lantern image from Dstampss‘ Lanterns and Little dua Makers and a sentiment from Mini Muslims stamp set with gold embossing powder and adhered it to one of the gift card holder die cuts.

For the second one, I used some images from Lawn Fawn‘s Out of this World (die cut using the coordianting dies) and I embossed the same sentiment as the first gift holder.

So grateful for these Islamic products on the market now! Makes Ramadan and Eid crafting so much easier! Make sure to check out these brands and let them know I sent you *wink*. I hope you were inspired and if you create something for Eid be sure to tag me @everydayengineered on Instagram! 

Happy Crafting!

Floral Bouquet Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Happy Monday crafty friends! I hope that you are having a great start to the week! If not, make sure to sneak in some crafty time! Popping in today to share a quick-ish card cause sometimes you just don’t have the time or energy for detailed coloring! That’s when the newest coordinating ink blending stencils come in handy! I avoided them for a while, now I am hooked!

To create this card I started by stamping all three of the images from Honey Bee Stamps’ Floral Vase stamp set with VersaMark watermark ink and Lawn Fawn gold embossing powder to emboss.

Next I inked up the “vase” using Tumbled Glass distress oxide ink.

The I ink blended the leaves using Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn distress oxide inks.

Next up where the flowers using distress oxide ink in Shaded Lilac and Wilted Violet.

The last layer of ink blending was the center of the flowers that I added using  Scattered Straw distress oxide ink.

Next I die cut out the inked images along with the card and pick for the sentiment using the coordinating dies. I embossed a sentiment on to the card.

To finish off the card I added a little texture to the card front using dry embossing and the Crystal Kaleidoscope Background stencil and assembled the images using a combination of foam tape and liquid adhesive.

Thanks for following along today! I hope that this card inspires you to create something! 

Till the next time, take care!
