Welcome Spring Card by March Guest Designer Jane Trivedi
instagram - https://www.instagram.com/papercraft4fun/

Hi Friends! I’m so happy to be guest designer at Newton’s Nook this month! Today, I’m sharing this lovely spring card using the Woodland Spring Stamp Set and some masking paper.
To create this scene, I first stamped the image of the deer using copic friendly black ink onto a piece of white A2 cardstock. Then, I stamped the same image onto masking paper and cut the image using scissors. Next, I placed the mask on the image and also used some masking paper to mask off the bottom portion of the card. The following distress inks were used to blend the background (top to bottom): kitsch flamingo, dried marigold and spun sugar.
After removing all the masks, I added the sentiment “welcome spring” from the Woodland Spring Stamp Set. Then, a few flowers and leaves were added to the bottom of the card to fill in the white space. Images were colored using the following copic makers:
Deer: E0000, E51, E53, E33
Bird: BG10, BG11, B000, B0000
Flowers: YR16, Y17, Y21, RV55, R02, V06, RV52
Leaves: BG32, YG01
White gel pen used to add accents to the images.
The panel was then cut down to 5 inches by 3.75 inches and adhered to a piece of A2 Bazzill cardstock (color is butter mints). The entire front panel was then adhered to a white A2 card base.
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
Can’t wait to share more with you all this month!

Farm Themed Baby Card by Ellen Haxelmans
Welcome Little Boy!
Today Ellen has created a wonderful farm themed card to welcome a baby boy! For this card she features several of our farm themed sets together to create an adorable scene! For the farm friends she uses the pig from our Oink Stamp Set, the lamb from our Baa Stamp Set and the chick from our Cluck Stamp Set. She also uses the hay bale and barn from our Moo Stamp Set to set the scene. All the images were cut out with their coordinating die sets (find them all in our farm category).
She used our Circle Frames Die Set to create the circle and scalloped circle that frames the scene. She also used our Cloudy Sky Stencil and Land Borders Die Set to complete the scene.
To make this into a baby card she adds the sentiment "welcome little boy" by combining words from our Loveable Laundry Stamp Set. The word "welcome" was added to a banner that was cut out using our Banner Trio Die Set. Our Gingham Stencil on the background with yellow ink really adds to the sweet baby theme!
How to create this card:
- (left photo) Using Distress Ink and the Gingham Stencil I made the base of the card..
- (center photo) I created a scene in the biggest frame from Circle Frames Die Set. I started with the grass and the hill. This was created with the Land Borders Die Set. I colored these borders with Distress Ink. For the sandy hill I also sprinkled brown, white and water splatters on top. The clouds were created with the Cloudy Sky Stencil and white glitter gel from Therm O Web.
- (right photo) The last step was to color the images with Copic Markers and then assemble it all together.
