All the new April products will be available for purchase on Friday, April 20th at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!
NND Design Team is kicking off this week with another super adorable Newton stamp set called Newton’s Graduation that has a couple of sweet kitty images and some super fun matching sentiments. This set comes with the coordinating dies. Plus NND is adding a super versatile die set to their collection named Essential Alphabet Die set and as you can guess it allows you die-cut all the letters and numbers! This set is just perfect to customize any of your projects and give them a personalized twist!
Giveaway alert!! NND is giving new Newton’s Graduation stamp set away to one lucky winner so make sure you read all the way to the bottom of this post to see how to win!
Of corse, I just had to get my hands on both new products: Newton’s Graduation stamp and Essential Alphabet Die sets. And here’s what I came up with!
I started with Bristol paper from Strathmore brand, first die-cut using the coordinating Newton’s Graduation die set and then stamped the cute kitty with a globe. Once the ink was dried, I made a simple watercoloring with Zig Clean Colour Real Brush markers. I set aside the watercolor piece and started working on the background die-cutting from Essential Alphabet Die set some letters on a masking paper. I placed the letters into the desirable pattern towards the bottom right corner of the card base, masked the card edges and applied Distress Oxide ink in Mermaid Lagoon color with an ink blending tool. I also spritzed a few tiny water droplets on top and lift the masked letters from the background achieving a fun pattern. Assembling the card I popped Newton on a foam tape, heat embossed the sentiment from the same Newton’s Graduation set on fish-tale banner die-cut with Frames & Flags die set and finally added a few matching sequins.
