All the new August products will be available for purchase on Friday, August 21st at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!
The second day of the release will surprise you with lots of different, but not less amazing designs! There is a new super adorable addition to the kitty collection with Paw-tumn Newton stamp set that comes with the coordinating Paw-tumn Newton Die Set. Then we have beautiful Fall Roundabout stamp set that, as other stamps from the roundabout series, coordinates perfectly with Circle Frames Die Set. And finally a gorgeous Heartfelt Wishes stamp set filled with many sentiments in different sizes and styles.
Giveaway alert!! NND is giving away new Paw-tumn Newton and Fall Roundabout stamp sets 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 the cutest Paw-tumn Newton stamp set. Since the fabulous autumn image from this set is quite big, I decided to keep everything clean and simple and just highlight the stamp with watercoloring. To start, I die cut the kitty plus a couple of pumpkins and autumn leaves with the coordinating Paw-tumn Newton Die Set. I also prepared a faux stitched rectangle from Frames and Flags Die Set while I had my Big Shot die cutting machine on the desk. I worked on Arches Cold Pressed Watercolor paper since I like its texture. I saved the negative parts of the dies and used them inside my MISTI tool for a perfect alignment while I was making the stamping using VersaFine Onyx Black ink and Paw-tumn Newton stamp set. The stamps and the background were colored with regular watercolors from my customised palette.
An extended A2 size card base (5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″) was made from a kraft cardstock. I simply stamped the “SMILE” sentiment from new Heartfelt Wishes stamp set directly on the watercolor background and started assembling all the element together with a bit of dimension.
The second card highlights new beautiful Fall Roundabout stamp set. To start, I heat embossed with a fine white embossing powder the leaves stamp on Strathmore Bristol paper. Then I framed it using a scalloped circle from Circle Frames Die Set and proceeded with coloring using Tombow markers and a small water brush from Pentel.
As always, I’m sharing all the exact colors used here: TOMBOW MARKERS 025, 055, 126, 476, 723, 743, 905, 933, 990, 991.
An extended A2 size white card base (5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″) made from Neenah Solar White paper was embellished with a tone on tone pattern through new just released yesterday Houndstooth stencil with a plain white embossing paste just for something little extra. I let the background air dry and then assembled the card together wrapping a light kraft twine a few times around the card front, popping the colored circle on a foam tape and adding a heat embossed sentiment from the same Fall Roundabout stamp set. A few clear sparkle sequins gave a finish touch to this project.
