Newton's Nook Designs 2nd Anniversary Blog Hop!


Newton’s Nook Designs is so excited to be celebrating our TWO Year Anniversary - WOW - TWO whole years of getting our paws inky! I remember how excited I was when our first four sets came in the mail two years ago! (see photo below) - Now we have 67 products in our shop, including BRAND NEW DIES!!! It's been an AMAZING two years - filled with happiness, stress, lots of excitement and very little sleep!

We want to take a minute to say THANK YOU to all our fans, designers and customers who helped make it happen! We are so happy to be here and we can't wait to see what the next year brings!
Newton's Nook Designs - Newton,  Jennifer and Jeff
To celebrate, we have a blog hop and we've invited some very special guests to our hop along  - Jennifer Ingle, Tessa Wise, Shellye McDaniel, AND the Simon Says Stamp blog! How cool is that? Make sure to scroll down to the end of the post to see the whole list!


For our stop on the hop, I wanted to use our Newton's Naptime and coordinating NEW Purr-fect die set! Since our namesake kitty (the "real" Newton) is orange I colored the kitty orange to look like him. Then I gave him a stack of bright colored blankets too! This image is SO FUN to color! After coloring the blankets, I cut out the image with the fun coordinating die!

For the card base, I took a white piece of cardstock and cut the "thought bubble" out and added a bit of light yellow paper behind it. I stamped the "I love you more than naps" sentiment in the thought bubble. If you follow me on instagram, where I post lots photos of sleepy Newton, you know that Newton does LOVE to nap, so that sentiment is saying a lot! I finished off the card with some fun patterned washi tape and bakers twine (my two favorite card-making essentials!) 

This set is for sale now, along with the rest of our July release at Newton's Nook Designs online shop today! You can also find our release at Simon Says Stamp!

  22. Happy anniversary!
    (My cats wants me to say: "Newton! We agree with you, loving someone more than naps is THE greatest declaration of love ever. Or maybe right behind "I love you more than egg yolks..." ;))
    This sure was a fun and inspiring bloghop. :)

    Ps. Also wondering if you think the nap-set will be back in stock before the offer run out? Fingers crossed! :)
    Have a good day.

    1. Hello Zarah - Thanks for the nice comment! I am sorry to say we won't have more Naptime sets in stock for a few weeks. We are so sorry they sold out before you were able to get one! You might still be able to find it at Simon Says Stamp. Or you can sign up for our enewsletter up on the sidebar to be notified when we get more!

  32. Congratulations on your anniversary! Love your kitty cat--we used to have 4 indoor "babies", unfortunately all have moved on, however God in His widsom blessed us with 14 feral cats--all have been neutered, we have about 8 "regulars" that we still feed, and 2 of them are wanting us to pet them--they look in the back door to see if I'm available for a "petting" session! Love your kitty stamps--going to have to get some soon!
