Hello and welcome to Day 1 of the Newton’s Nook Designs September Release!
I’m super excited and can’t wait to introduce you tons of new fabulous goodies this month!!! Ready??? So let’s start!
All the new September products will be available for purchase on Friday, September 14th at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!
NND Design Team is kicking off this week with two super ADORABLE stamp sets featuring the cute kitty Newton named Newton’s Thanksgiving and Newton’s Cornucopia. Both sets come with the coordinating dies. Plus we have two absolutely amazing new Pumpkin Patch and Tree Rings stencils this month. So much fun to play and infinite possibilities to mix and match all the goodies.
Giveaway alert!! NND is giving both new Newton’s Thanksgiving and Newton’s Cornucopia stamp sets away to lucky winners so make sure you read all the way to the bottom of this post to see how to win!
My first card features a few new products: Newton’s Thanksgiving stamp set and the coordinating dies plus Tree Rings stencil.
To start, I die cut from Strathmore Bristol paper using the Newton’s Thanksgiving Die Set and stamped the coordinating images from Newton’s Thanksgiving stamp set with VersaFine Onyx Black ink. Next I had the most wonderful time coloring all the elements with new to me Tombow markers.
In case you’re wondering, I’m leaving you the complete list of all the markers used here: n.N15, n.090, n.126, n.723, n.725, n.885, n.912, n.946, n.947, n.991.
For the card base I used kraft cardstock, new Tree Rings stencil and a white embossing paste. Applying the embossing paste, I purposely didn’t smooth it perfectly for a fun playful look and an extra texture. Finally I heat embossed the sentiment on a fish-tailed banner die cut from Frames & Flags die set and popped some elements on a foam tape for a bit of dimension.
Next come Newton’s Cornucopia stamp set, the coordinating dies and Pumpkin Patch stencil.
My first steps were exactly the same as described on the previous project. Once again I used Tombow markers for coloring.
Here’s all the exact numbers of Tombow markers used here: n.N15, n.090, n.126, n.623, n.673, n.723, n.725, n.885, n.899, n.946, n.947, n.977, n.990, n.991 plus Zig Clean Colour Real Brush marker n.50 Yellow.
While the watercolor pieces were drying, I prepared a scalloped frame die cut from vellum with Framework Die Set and heat embossed white sentiment towards the bottom part. As for the card base, I chose kraft color and added on top tone on tone pattern through Pumpkin Patch stencil using Vintage Photo Distress ink and an ink blending tool.
