Newton’s Nook Designs August Release and Giveaway – Day 4 – Halloween Trio, Candy Corn, and Boo Hoo

Hello and welcome to the final day of the Newton’s Nook Designs August Release! Time definitely flies by too fast!
All the new August products will be available for purchase tomorrow on Friday, August 17th at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!

The last day of the August release has reserved a great surprise!!! Today NND is revealing THREE new amazing sets: Halloween Trio, Candy Corn, and Boo Hoo. All of them come with the coordinating dies.

Giveaway alert!! NND is giving Halloween Trio stamp set away to a lucky winner so make sure you read all the way to the bottom of this post to see how to win!

Let’s spread no more words since this post is long and start with the first card featuring so adorable Halloween Trio stamp set.

I stated with the coordinating Halloween trio dies and die cut the cute critters along with the word sentiment and a few bats from Neenah Solar white paper. I aligned the negative part of the cuts in the stamping positioning tool and stamped the Halloween Trio with Memento black ink. Next I spent some time coloring the critters and the bats with copic markers.

In case you’re curious, here’s the complete list of all the copic markers I used here: YR02-YR04-YR07-YR07-YR18-E08; Y32-YR21-YR24-YR27; YR30-YR31; E30-E31-E33-E35; E41-E42-E43; C00-C1-C3; YG21-YG95; BG70; W00-W1;T1-T7; R30; 100

Assembling all the elements, I created a night scene using Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean and Chipped Sapphire Distress inks and Sunscape stencil for the rays of light, popped the cute critters on a foam tape and finished with a few matching sequins.

Next comes Candy Corn stamp set and a night watercolor scene. To start, I die cut a bunch of candy corns using the coordinating Candy Corn die set (so handful for multiple die cutting), stamped all the images with VersaFine Onyx Black ink on a Bristol paper from Strathmore and colored all the elements with Zig Clean Colour Real Brush markers.

Here’s the complete list of all the colors I used here: n.51 Lemon Yellow – n.50 Yellow – n.52 Bright Yellow – n.70 Orange – n.71 Flesh Colour – n.67 Mustard – n.91 Light Gray

For the background I used Framework die, a watercolor paper and regular watercolors. Once dried, I embossed some stars throughout Starfield stencil with a plain white embossing paste and heat embossed the sentiment from the same Candy Corn set with a white embossing powder. Once all the elements were arranged on the card base, I decided to add a cute owl from Boo Hoo set on top of the candy corns stack.

Last, but not least we have Boo Hoo stamp set with a super fun and cute ghosts. Using the coordinating Boo Hoo Die Set and Neenah Solar White paper, I die cut a few ghost shapes and speech bubbles.

Then I stamped the matching stamps with Memento black ink and colored the images with copic markers.

These are the exact copic markers I used here: T1; Y0000-Y00; RV0000-RV00; 0 (colorless blender).

For the background I prepared a scalloped frame using NND Frames & Flags Die Set with a circle window in the center where I added a sort of yellow Moon inking the paper with Fossilized Umber Distress Oxide ink and added on top some bats through just released yesterday Flying Bats stencil.

Newton’s Nook Designs August Release and Giveaway – Day 3 – Hoppy Halloween and Flying Bats

Hello and welcome to Day 3 of the Newton’s Nook Designs August Release!
All the new August products will be available for purchase on Friday, August 17th at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!

Today I’m so happy to introduce you a super sweet and adorable Hoppy Halloween stamp set that comes with lots of big and small images! So much fun to play and use in many different ways! This set comes with the coordinating dies so useful for quick die cutting! Plus NND is adding a new Halloween stencil to their collection this month! It’s called Flying Bats and it’s so much fun to use for creating Halloween scenes!!!

Giveaway alert!! NND is giving new Hoppy Halloween 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!

Inspired by the cutest bunny searching for some candies in the pumpkin, I decided to create a circle shaker card filled with sweet treats. To start, I die cut the bunny shape along with a whole bunch of sweets using  the coordinating Hoppy Halloween dies from Strathmore Bristol paper and then stamped the images from Hoppy Halloween stamp set with a waterproof black ink using a stamping positioning tool and the negative part of the die cuts. Next I took a water brush and colored all the images with Zig Clean Colour Real Brush markers.

As always I’m leaving you the complete list of all the colors I used here: n.51 Lemon Yellow – n.52 Bright Yellow – n.70 Orange – n.26 Light Pink – n.25 Pink – n. 41 Light Green – n.80 Violet – n.81 Purple – n.71 Flesh Colour – n.61 Light Brown – n.67 Mustard

For the card base, I die cut twice a scalloped circle from a white cardstock and glued together the top part. Next I die cut another circle of the same dimension from a bright purple cardstock with a window inside and used it to create a shaker part that was filled with the small colored stamps from Hoppy Halloween stamp set, a few clear sequins and some matching beads. The sentiment was simply heat embossed with a white embossing powder on a piece of a black cardstock and popped on top of the card base with a foam tape along with the cute bunny.

The coordinating dies make the life so easy when you have to do multiple things.

While the colored images were drying, I die cut a scalloped frame from Framework Die Set, added some light blue ink on top with an ink blending tool and heat embossed the sentiment from the same Fabulous Frenchies stamp set on a piece of a black cardstock. Once all the elements were arranged on the card base, I added a cute little bow on the puppy’s tail and a few clear sequins.

Hello Card (ft. Sugar Pea Designs)

Hello and welcome!
I’m sooooooo honored and soooooo excited to announce that I’m joining a wonderful SugarPea Designs Design Team! Woo-Hoo!!! And this is my first post and project as a Design Team member quite clean and simple, but not less adorable I hope! You can check my post on SugarPea blog right here!!!

I thought it would be fun to say hello to all SugarPea Design fans and so I’m starting this Design Team with a cute hello card. Working on this projects, first of all I stamped some cute images from HedgeHugs stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and Neenah Solar White paper. Next I colored the adorable stamps with copic markers and fussy cut right against the stamp lines. Next I took a black marker with a brush tip and colored all the stamp edges to hide any imperfection due to fussy cutting.

Here’s the complete list of all the copic marker I used here: E30-E31-E33-E35-E37; YR23-YR24-YR27; R00-R11-R24; YR30-E51-E40; G82-YG01; BG01; C6; 100.

I love die cut sentiments and so my choice was on a wonderful Hello SugarCut. I die cut and stacked three layers one on top of each other for an extra touch. The scalloped background frame die cut from Card Front Element Builder set was inked with Distress inks in Tumbled Glass and Antique Linen colors. I also used a wavy line from the same Card Front Element Builder set to mask the “sky” and “ground” parts.
Last but not least I added a coat of a clear glitter shimmer pen and adhered the matching sequins from Ocean Sparkly Shaker Selection sequins mix.

Hope you like this cute and simple card! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!!!
