Night skies and Witch Boos | Newton’s Nook Designs

Happy Monday crafty friends! I hope y’all had an amazing weekend and got in a bunch of crafty time! Halloween is growing on me it seems, as I am back with another Halloween card! This time with a night sky in background!

I’ve recently been trying to take more process pictures while crafting, as I know many of you appreciate them!

I started to create this card, by die cutting a circle and inking it up using distress oxide inks in Scattered Straw, Fossilized Amber and Wild Honey, to create a moon.

Next I inked up the negative space create the night sky, again using distress oxides, this time in twisted citron, lucky clover, chipped sapphire and black soot.

Next I added the two die cut pieces to a card front and splattered it with gold paint and let it dry.

Next I stamped and colored a image of a witch from Newton’s Nook Designs Brooms & Boos using the copic markers shown in the picture above. After coloring, I die cut it using the coordinating die from Brooms & Boos Die Set.

I finished off the card by embossing a sentiment from the Brooms & Boos stamp set on to a banner die cut from the Banner Trio Die Set using black card stock and gold embossing powder. I also embossed some stars in gold on to black card stock along with some bats in black on to white card stock, and die cut them with the coordinating dies.

I finished off the card my adhering the colored image along with all the embossed pieces as “embellishments” and the sentiment using a combination of glue and foam tape for dimension.

Get Well Soon | Pretty Pink Posh

Happy Monday! I hope that y’all had a great weekend and are ready for the week! I have a pretty busy week coming up and here’s to hoping that I can keep the productivity from last week going! Popping in today to share a card for a cause, Shery Russ, owner of STAMPlorations. I was lucky enough to guest design for her a while back and she’s not only creative, but a great person! Unfortunately she is suffering from cancer now and needs all the support and help that she can get! We hope they hop can get the word out!

I have this “Get well soon” die from Pretty Pink Posh and I’m grateful I don’t have to use it often, but it seemed like a fitting card for this hop. I started by die cutting the Get well soon die from purple glitter card stock, and a second time using black card stock to create a shadow. Using a glue pen I layered the die cuts off set, and placed it under a heavy book to set.

Next I used the Floral Background stencil along with Distress Oxides in Fossilized Amber, Spiced Marmalade, and Picked Raspberry to create an inked background.

Lastly, I stamped the wreath from the Spring Wreath Stamp Set with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored it using copic markers. Once I was done coloring I stamped the image again, this time using Versamark Ink and embossed it using Gold Embossing Powder. I die cut it using the coordinating die and added it to my inked background. And finished off by layering the sentiment on the wreath.

Newton’s Nook Designs Birthday Release – Day 4 – Birthday Release Recap | Newton’s Nook Designs

Happy birthday to Newton’s Nook Designs! I hope you’ve enjoyed all the birthday themed inspiration I shared this week! Everything will be available for purchase tomorrow, July 15 and there will be having a Birthday Sale! While you wait for the release to go live, I thought that I would share a few more cards to inspire y’all!

I used some of my favorite products from the release to create a few more CAS-ish cards as I just couldn’t stop creating with all the cuteness in the release!

For my first card, I used an image from the Birthday Mice stamp set, I colored it using alcohol markers, and die cut it using the coordinating die.

To finish off the card, I added a strip of pattern paper from the Birthday Party Paper Pad, stamped a sentiment and added a few sequins.

For my second card, I created an inked background using the Bokeh Balloon Stencil. To create the background, I inked up an A2 card panel, I added the first layer of the stencil set, and inked it up with the same colors for a tone on tone look, and using the second stencil with white pigment ink. I finished off and splattered it with white water color paint.

While the inked panel dried, I colored an image from the Birthday Mice stamp set, along with two party hats. I die cut them using the coordinating dies. I also die cut a banner from the Frames & Flags Die Set, onto which I stamped and embossed the sentiments.

I trimmed down the inked panel, and added the colored images and sentiments on top of it! I finished off by adding the party hats to the mice along with some matching sequins.

Thanks for following along all week and the lovely comments! 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!

I finished off the card my stamping and embossing a sentiment in black from the same, Birthday Oval stamp set, die cut the image using a scalloped oval from the Oval Frames Die Set. I added it to a card base that I dry embossed using the (new) Bokeh Balloon Stencil.

For my second card, I went into a little detail, I stamped the image from the Birthday Oval stamp set with alcohol friendly black ink and colored in rainbow order with copic markers. Before die cutting it with a scalloped oval from the Oval Frames Die Set like my first card, I embossed a sentiment with black ink in the center.

Happy Thursday! Today is the last day of the June reveal week over at Newton’s Nook Designs! We are showcasing the Newton’s Kite stamp set along with its coordinating dies.

Today’s stamp set is another one that it perfect for an interactive card! I used a pull tab mechanism for mine, messed it up a bit, but the card still looks good!

To create this card, I started by stamping and coloring Newton from Newton’s Kite stamp set with some alcohol markers, and die cut using the coordinating dies, and setting it aside to create the scene.

Similar to my interactive card from yesterday, I used a grass border die and green ink to create a grassy border. Next I inked up my card front using the Petite Clouds Stencil and the Tree Line Stencil, I stamped a sentiment and created the (not so straight!) pull tab. I finished off the card by adding the colored image using some foam tape and snipping off the kite and adding a little twine!

Newton’s Nook Designs June Release – Day 2 – Flamingo Oval | Newton’s Nook Designs

Happy Tuesday! Hope y’all had a great start to the week! Welcome to the second day of June reveal week over at Newton’s Nook Designs! I am so excited to be here sharing a whole bunch of fun products! Today we are showcasing the Flamingo Oval stamp set that works with the previously release Oval Frame Die Set.

This release is perfect for summer themed cards and what says summer more than a flamingo! I love the pun-ny sentiments on todays stamp set and how well they pair with the Summer Time paper pad.

For my first card today I started by stamping and coloring the image from the Flamingo Oval stamp set using alcohol markers. Then I die cut it using a scalloped oval die cut from the Oval Frame Die Set. I also die cut two stitched ovals from vellum, one to add to the back of the colored image, and one to stamp and emboss a sentiment on to.

I finished off the card by stacking the die cut ovals, and adding to a sheet of pattern paper from the Summer Time paper pad.

While trying to finish my first card I stamped the sentiment you see here on the second card, but it covered too much of the colored flamingos, so I didn’t use it there but also didn’t want to throw it out, so I created this second card!

I used one sheet of pattern paper from the Summer Time paper pad cut in up and flipped it over for a layered too. I wrapped a piece of twine around it before adding the sentiment using come foam tape.
