Here Comes Santa Paws Card by Tatiana Trafimovich

Here Comes Santa Paws Card by Tatiana Trafimovich | Santa Paws Stamp Set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook #handmade

Santa Paws!

Today Tatiana is sharing a Holiday card in pretty pastels! She used the kitty dressed as Santa with a sack of gifts from our Santa Paws Newton Stamp Set and colored him in such pretty soft pastel colors! Isn't that pink Santa suit adorable!? Then she cut out the kitty and mouse using the coordinating Santa Paws Newton Die Set to cut them out. She added them to a fun tag that she had cut out using the Fancy Edges Tag Die Set. This tag set is super cool because you can customize your tags with different edges. She added the fun little scalloped border onto the tag for this card. She also added a little snowy hill using the Land Borders Die Set. For the background she used our Snowfall Stencil with shades of blue, purple and pink inks! So sweet and pretty! 

To see more details on her project today and more of her beautiful creations you can visit Tatiana at Tatiana Craft and Art!

Snowman Jar Card by Naki Rager

Snowman Jar Card by Naki Rager | Snow Globe Scenes and Lovely Blooms Stamp Sets by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook #handmade

Snowy Jar Holiday Card 

Today Naki is sharing how to combine several stamp sets to create something unique! She stamped the cute little mason jar from our Lovely Blooms Stamp Set in gray and then she stamped the tiny snowman and tree from the  Snow Globe Scenes Stamp Set inside the jar! What a cute idea! She also added some fun dimensional snow! Then she added a tiny round tag using our Tags Times Two Die Set, tied around the jar. This cute little image was added to her card over a scalloped panel that she cut out using our Frames & Flags Die Set. She also added some fun texture onto that panel using the Starfield Stencil with embossing paste and orange and yellow inks! She finished off the card with the "May your holidays sparkle with joy & happiness" sentiment from the Sentiments of the Season Stamp Set! What a great way to combine a ton of fun products on one amazing card!

Squeak-sons Greetings Card by Holly Endress

Squeak-sons Greetings Card by Holly Endress | Naughty or Mice Stamp Set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook #handmade

Three little mice for Christmas!

Today we are getting ready for the Holidays with some adorable Christmas mice on this card by Holly! She used three of the cute mice from our Naughty or Mice Stamp Set and colored them with watercolors. She then trimmed them out using the coordinating Naughty or Mice Die Set before adding them to her card. For the card base she cut out that fun scalloped edged panel using the  Frames & Flags Die Set and added some pretty teal blue watercoloring onto it to create that lovely background! She layered it over a piece of patterned paper and added those cute little mice on top! How adorable! She also added a bit of fun shimmer to the hats and scarves on the mice!

Fireside Friends Card by November Guest Designer Kelly Latevola



Hello Crafters! 

I can't believe it's been a whole month already!

I'm so grateful to  Newton's Nook for asking me to guest this month. I had such a good time using this stamps you guys!

Of Course, I couldn't let the month go without coming back to a little scene card.
I mean, It's what I really love :) 


Cat and Dog by Fireplace Card by November Guest Designer Kelly Latevola | Fireside Friends Stamp Set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook #handmade

Whether you're into full blown scenes or maybe just doing a mini one like I did here this Fireside Friends stamp basically makes the card for you. I love large images like this that you don't really need to do anything to. Because even though I love scenes sometimes I just want to stamp and color! 


Cat and Dog by Fireplace Card by November Guest Designer Kelly Latevola | Fireside Friends Stamp Set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook #handmade

The card today is a combination of distress inks and Copics just like most cards I make. However, this one is applied in a way to make the fire look like it's glowing! 
I love the look of it!

Cat and Dog by Fireplace Card by November Guest Designer Kelly Latevola | Fireside Friends Stamp Set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook #handmade

Often times I think people look at other crafter's card and see only the finished product leaving them feeling like their cards aren't good enough. In this card I stamped the image crooked and had to fix it! 
No really, it was obviously crooked haha! 

You can see how I fixed it as well as the entire card process in the video below.

The title may throw you off a bit unless you're a follower on Youtube,then it'll make perfect sense! 


Even though we had a few struggles getting the card straight I still really love the way it came out! I also like that I didn't have to start over lol. 
When you have a "mistake" on a card look for a way to make it a happy accident!

Truly Grateful Card by Jennifer Jackson | Shades of Autumn Stamp Set & Falling Leaves Stencil by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook

I did want to take time to share a card today as well! To make this lovely Thank You card, I started out with our Falling Leaves Stencil. I taped it down over a panel of white cardstock and used various Distress oxide inks to ink over it in fun fall colors! Then I took out our Shades of Autumn Stamp Set and stamped two of the big leaves and trimmed them out using the coordinating Shades of Autumn Die Set. I love the variation in tone those leaves have! So pretty! I didn't want to cover up that pretty background too much so I stamped the "truly grateful" sentiment onto a piece of vellum and stamped embossed it with black. Then I layered everything together and finished it off with a piece of burlap twine! So perfect and fitting for Thanksgiving!

I hope you enjoyed this card today! If you're here to find out about our sale this weekend, that's up next!
