Today I’m playing with a few fun new goodies released by Newton’s Nook Designs during the Holiday period! So let’s take another look on the super adorable moose from Moose Mountain stamp set and amazing Petite Snow stencil!

Working on this project I started with a die cutting process and created a snow hill using Land Borders Die Set along with the coordinating cut from Moose Mountain Die Set. Next I aligned the negative part of the moose in my stamping positioning tool and added the coordinating image plus the sentiment both from the same Moose Mountain stamp set using a black copic friendly ink. Before proceeding with coloring, I prepared a regular A2 size card base, inked it with a light blue tones of Distress inks and then added a snow pattern through Petite Snow stencil using a white embossing paste. While the embossing paste was drying, I colored the moose with copic markers and finally popped everything together using a foam tape for a bit of dimension.

In case you’re interested, here’s the complete list of all the copic markers used here: B0000-B01-B02-B04-B05-B39; Y18-YR04-YR07-E09; E40-E42-E42-E43; T0-T1-T3; Y21-Y26.

Newton’s Nook Designs November Release and Giveaway – Day 3 – Newton Celebrates and Newton’s New Year

November 21, 2018November 21, 2018 Tatiana19 Comments

Hello and welcome to Day 3 of the Newton’s Nook Designs November Release!

All the new November products will be available for purchase on Friday, November 23th at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!

Today we’re celebrating a return of the mischievous kitty Newton in two new absolutely adorable stamp sets: Newton Celebrates and Newton’s New Year. These stamp sets are really cute, versatile and will cover easily many of the occasions from the upcoming New Year to birthdays and anniversaries! In case you’re wondering, both new sets come with the coordinating dies.

Giveaway alert!! NND is giving a $25 store credit to Newton’s Nook Designs to a lucky winner so make sure you read all the way to the bottom of this post to see how to win!

My first card featuring Newton Celebrates stamp set turned out clean and simple.

To start, I took Strathmore Bristol paper, die cut using Newton Celebrates Die Set and stamped the coordinating images from Newton Celebrates stamp set. Next I colored all the cute critters and a few accessories with a water based markers.

Here’s the complete list of all the markers I used:
TOMBOW MARKERS: n.N15, n.090, n.126, n.452, n.533, n.623, n.723, n.947, n.977, n.991.
ZIG CLEAN COLOUR REAL BRUSH MARKERS: n.41 Light Green, n.50 Yellow, n.60 Brown, n.61 Light Brown, n.64 Oatmeal, n.67 Mustard, n.72 Beige, n.83 Ochre, n.95 Mid Gray.

I wanted the colored critters become a main focus on my card and so I kept all the rest clean and simple. The sentiment from the same Newton Celebrates set was heat embossed on a piece of a purple cardstock and a tone on tone white embossing through Confetti stencil gave a finished touch.

Small, but not less adorable Newton’s New Year stamp set can be paired with the largest Newton Celebrates set or used on its own.

Creating this card, I used the same NND products, but gave to this card a colorful twist with a bright background. And so the images were die cut using the coordinating Newton’s New Year Die Set from Bristol paper, stamped with a waterproof black ink and colored with water based markers. The background was inked with Mustard Seeds, Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet Distress inks. Next I applied the same Confetti stencil that I used on the first card and added a tone on tone a pattern on top with the same Distress inks along with a few water droplets.

In case you are curios, here’s what I used for coloring this card:
TOMBOW MARKERS: n.126, n.623, n.673, n.723, n.947, n.977.
ZIG CLEAN COLOUR REAL BRUSH MARKERS: n.41 Light Green, n.50 Yellow, n.51 Lemon Yellow, n.61 Light Brown, n.72 Beige, n.82 Purple, n.91 Light Gray.

Newton’s Nook Designs November Release and Giveaway – Day 1 – Christmas Haul, Moose Mountain and Snowman Advice

November 19, 2018November 16, 2018 Tatiana40 Comments

Hello and welcome to Day 1 of the Newton’s Nook Designs November 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 November products will be available for purchase on Friday, November 23th at Newton’s Nook Designs online store and other craft retailers!

NND Design Team is kicking off this week with three super ADORABLE stamp sets and two really fabulous layering stencils. And so we have Moose Mountain and Christmas Haul stamp sets that come with the coordinating dies and Snowman Advice stamp set plus Plaid and Argyle stencils that are so much fun to play with for creating infinite number of patterns.

Giveaway alert!! NND is giving a $25 store credit to Newton’s Nook Designs to a lucky winner 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: Moose Mountain stamp set and the coordinating dies plus Plaid stencil.

To start, I die cut from Neenah Solar White paper using the Moose Mountain Die Set and stamped the coordinating images from Moose Mountain stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Next I had the most wonderful time coloring the cute moose with copic markers.

In case you’re wondering, I’m leaving you the complete list of all the markers used here: E30-E31-E33-E35; B000-B00-B01-B02-B04; YR21-YR15-YR68; YG00-YG21-YG23; Y23-Y27; T0-T1; BG10-BG11.

Next I heat embossed the sentiment from the same Moose Mountain stamp set on a piece of a black cardstock and proceeded with the plaid background. New Plaid stencil is a layering one. It means that it has two separate stencils to go one on top of each other. Each individual stencil has marks that will help you to lay the stencils easily. But you can definitely play with both layers and create your own patterns. On this particular background I inked the first layer with Mermaid Lagoon Distress inks keeping my hand light. Next I placed the second layer and added more stripes with Spiced Marmalade Distress ink. Since I felt like my pattern needed more color, I cleaned and then reapplied the second layer another time using Mermaid Lagoon ink more heavily.

Finally I assembled everything using Land Borders Die Set to create a snow slope, added a bit of shimmer with Wink of Stella Clear Brush Pen and a few matching sequins.

Next come super adorable Christmas Haul stamp and die sets. My first steps were exactly the same as described on the previous project. Once again I used copic markers for coloring.

Here’s all the exact numbers of copic markers used here: E50-E51-E53-E55; YG00-YG01-YG25;RV00-RV02-RV55; B000-B01-BG15; RV14-RV29.

Next I prepared a square card base where first I added a fun tiny pattern through Petite Snow stencil using Peacock Feathers Distress ink and then inked the whole piece with Tumbled Glass Distress ink. I also trimmed another square from a white cardstock, die cut a window inside using Snowglobe Shaker Die Set and finally stamped the sentiment from the same Christmas Haul set with the same black ink I used for stamping the images. At this point I assembled everything with a bit of dimension and an inevitable Wink of Stella Clear Brush Pen.

Last but not least comes my project featuring Snowman Advice stamp and Argyle stencil.

The central panel was die cut from Frames & Flags Die Set, inked with a few tones of blue Distress inks and was used to heat emboss the big beautiful sentiment from Snowman Advice stamp set along with a few snowflakes from the same set.

The fun part came with new Argyle stencil used for the background. It’s a layering stencil like the Plaid one we talked before. It also has the marks on both layers for easy alignment, but you can definitely mix and match both layers as you wish. On this project I used twice the layer number one first with Cracked Pistachio and then with Mermaid Lagoon Distress inks. I also used twice the second layer adding Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch colors and ended up with a full colorful pattern where I popped the sentiment panel on a foam tape and embellished with a few matching sequins.

Newton’s Nook Designs and Therm O Web Inspiration Week

November 8, 2018November 8, 2018 Tatiana13 Comments

Hello and welcome!

This week Newton’s Nook Designs and Therm O Web are partnering for a fabulous inspiration week! All week long both design teams will be sharing ways to add fun foils and more to your cards using Therm O Web products with Newton’s Nook Designs stamps! There are prizes too! Read all the way to the end of this post to find out how you can win!

And here’s what I came up with! I mixed and matched a few fun goodies from both companies and played with some new to me products!

I started with Winston’s Home For Christmas stamp set and the adorable bear in the car filled with lots of holiday stuff that was stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black ink on a piece of a watercolor paper along with a part of the matching sentiment (the word “Christmas was cut apart) and then colored with regular watercolors. Next the whole piece was framed with a scalloped die from Frames & Flags die set.

Then came a fun part as I took a piece of Deco Foil Clear Designer Toner Sheet and added on top my out design through Petite Snow stencil using the Deco Foil Transfer Gel and once dried foiled it with Silver Deco Foil by Therm O Web and a hot laminator. And wow!!! I turned out perfectly!!!! Next I scored a regular A2 size card base and cut out a window inside the front part with Framework die set, adhered my silver snowy pattern from the back side and covers the edged by another die cut frame. Last but not least I decided to add more sparkle die cutting the big word Christmas from Holiday Greetings die set and using Toner Sheets instead of a regular paper so that I cam run it through a heat laminator with a Red Deco Foil.
