Newton's Nook Designs November Release Day 2 - Sweater Weather Set and Fireside Friends Set

Hi there!

Welcome back to the Newton's Nook Designs November Release! 

All the new goodies will be available for purchase this Friday the 25th over at the Newton's Nook Designs Shop along with their big, Black Friday Sale! Woo!

Today is day 2, and we are sharing the Sweater Weather Set along with the coordinating die set, and the Fireside Friends set!

Oh my goodness! 

Can you even stand how cute these little critters in cozy sweaters are!?

And then here is this set...!!!

So super sweet!

Did I just hear you say Awwwww!?

Here they go...;-)

This super adorable bunny and fox couple is out caroling!

Wouldn't it be so fun and cute if they'd really come to your door and sing!?

This little foxy cutie was stamped with Memento Ink then colored in with the Spectrum Noir Markers then die cut with the coordinating die. Just adorable!!!

And then here is Lilly the bunny, she was also stamped with Memento Ink, and I tried to color her with my Spectrum Noir Markers but for some reason I was having the most difficult time, so she was colored with my tiny collection of Copic Markers. 

This adorable patterned paper was just perfect! 

All it needed was some music totes and Falala in a big speech bubble!

Could this be any sweeter!!?

"Cozy" is the perfect word to describe this beautiful image!

I wanted to showcase the warmth of the fire and peacefulness of being with loved one.

So I heat embossed the image with white then water colored. I must say, I felt very peaceful while coloring this! ;-) 

Even this sentiment is so cozy and lovely!

See, I can't stay away from the Pines & Holly Die set!

I repeated the orange and blue, and the pines on the fireplace from the image.

The watercolor panel was sewn onto my base card to add more homey feel, and watercolor paper was warped so this will keep it in place ;-)

Of course I had to add some sequins, I chose the warm copper.

Newton's Nook Designs November Release Day 1 - Joyful Tags Set

Hello there Newton lovers!

Welcome to day 1 of the Newton's Nook Designs November Release!

All the new goodies will be available for purchase this Friday the 25th over at the Newton's Nook Designs Shop! Not only that, we will be having Black Friday Sale at the same time (what!!?) so don't miss it!

Today we are sharing this fabulous set "Joyful Tags".

Aren't these just awesome!

Previously released the Tags Times Two Die Set coordinates these little cuties so cutting them is super easy!

I had so much fun with this set, I made a few things ;-)

Here they go!

Here is my take one!

I love white on kraft, and that's exactly what I did here!

I added the tag like it is on a present, can you see that!?

Well, wouldn't you like a receive a pretty present with a kitty sitting on it!?

This orange kitty wandered over here from the Newton's Antics set, so cute!

I can't seem to stay away from the Pines & Holly Die set...*Hee Hee*

My second project is this cute little tag!

I know, again with the white on kraft...;-p It's beautiful though, right!?

I added a Santa hat and a couple candy canes from the Ornamental Newton set for a pop of red. I added a crochet trim and linen twine for a rustic look.

Three of the images from the new Joyful Tags set were used on my third project.

I heat embossed the small images with copper on vellum, die cut, and popped up like ornaments. I die cut another round tag from champagne glimmer paper, not quite copper but pretty close. I also used the copper thread and copper sequins. 

This gorgeous sentiment is one of the tags, I inked up only the inside image with versamark marker and heat embossed right on the base panel with copper. Clear sequins were added to repeat the vellum from the right side of the card.

Would you like to win the “Joyful Tags” Stamp Set?

This set will be given away to ONE lucky winner!

Cupcake Inspirations Challenge 385

Hello lovelies!

It's time for another Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!

This week's sponsor is Lawn Fawn!

One lucky winner will receive a stamp set and a 6"x6" Patterned Paper Pad of their choice from them! Wow! So generous of Kelly! Thank you!

We have a theme challenge for you this week!

Oh my goodness, I just LOVE these simple little cupcakes!

So stinkin' cute!!!

Here is my take...;-)

So we all know very well that Lawn Fawn has such cute images with punny sentiments, and amazing dies! Well, I was so very much inspired by the cupcake photo and wanted to use their alphabet set.

The Owen's ABCs set is such a fun and cute alphabet set!

I heat embossed thanks with white on kraft then used the 1/2" Circle Punch. 

I sewed those skinny banners then adhered the thanks on them.

I wanted a super CAS design just like the photo.

I sponged Peacock Feathers and Squeezed Lemonade Distressed Ink onto watercolor paper, splattered some water with a paint brush, then lightly stamped that teeny tiny heart from the Get Well Soon Set with gold ink. 

{my notes}

Stamp: Owen's ABCs and Get Well Soon (Lawn Fawn)

Paper: Kraft (SU!), Yellow Vellum (Studio Calico), Watercolor Paper

Ink: Peacock Feathers and Squeezed Lemonade Distressed Ink (Ranger), Encore Gold Ink and Versamark (Tsukineko)

Newton's Nook Designs

Hello there, Happy Tuesday!

Today I am up on the Newton's Nook Designs Blog ;-)

I have a pretty Christmas card to share with you!

Here it goes!

I LOVE the white, kraft, and metallic color combo!

It is so rustic yet so modern!

I die cut this beautiful stag from karft and linen cardstock. I layered 3 heads in kraft to give dimension, then mounted the linen head on top slightly off centered.

That gorgeous twig wreath from the Happy Little Thoughts set was heat embossed with copper on white then die cut with the coordinating die set.

That lovely sentiment is from the Holiday Tweets set, I just LOVE that beautiful font! It was also heat embossed with copper on vellum, then fussy cut.

I added a snippet of copper thread underneath the wreath and stag, popped up the sentiment on the linen panel (love the texture of it!), and several wooden stars finish up this CAS card! 

{my notes}

Stamp: Happy Little Thoughts and Holiday Tweets (Newton's Nook Designs)

Cupcake Inspirations Challenge 384

Hello lovelies!

Happy Sunday, are you ready for a new Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!?

This week's sponsor is Serendipity Stamps!

We have this elegant color combo for you this week!

Isn't this cupcake amazing!?

Here is my take...;-)

I took this opportunity to make a birthday card for my husband's 40th!

The sponsor sent us the DT members this gorgeous cupcake and candle die set, thank you so much! 

I was totally inspired by the cupcake photo, so I die cut this beautiful cupcake from gold foil sheet and Night of Navy. And instead of the pretty turquoise flower in the photo, I die cut the candle from Tempting Turquoise. 

I originally had the gold on top but it was making it too gaudy! So I made it more of an accent color and it was so much better! A big turquoise star was added behind to balance out the colors.

My pretty cupcake was set on this little shaker,m which is made with kraft and patterned vellum sewn together. I added royal blue, turquoise, clear sequins, and gold star confetti. It looked a bit plain on plain white base, so i die cut this triangle background from white and mounted on the base before assembling the whole card.
