Mahalo Summer Card by Samantha Mann

Mahalo!

Today we are sharing summer vibes with a gorgeous card by Samantha combining our Aloha Newton Stamp Set and Hibiscus Stencil Set.

Samantha created a gorgeous background using our Hibiscus Stencil Set. This stencil has two pieces that layer together, one for the flowers and one for the leaves. She started by using stencil with the flowers, inking the flowers in pink and coral distress inks. Without lifting up the stencil, she pressed a clear embossing pad onto the stencil over the same floral areas. She removed the stencil and embossed the flowers with clear embossing powder. What a fun effect! Then she used the stencil with the leaves and inked it with green distress inks. She also added green inks over the whole upper part of the card front, fading them to the bottom left corner. Some paint and water splatters add a bit of fun texture. 

Next, she created the cute kitty image to add to her card. The cute cat peeking out from behind hibiscus flowers and tropical leaves is from our Aloha Newton Stamp Set. She colored the image in fun tropical colors and cut it out using the coordinating Aloha Newton Die Set. She added more individual hibiscus flowers and leaves behind the image to add some more dimension to the image. 

To finish the card she adds the word "Mahalo" embossed in white onto a small black rectangle. She also added some black and white washi tape up the side to help balance the colors. 

What a beautiful summer card!

Retro Summer Card by Samantha Mann

Retro Summer Card

Today we are sharing a beautiful (and simple) summer card by Samantha featuring our Retro Sun & Palms Stencil Set! 

If you know Samantha's work you know she loves beautiful bright colors but on this card she chose a more muted color palette to fit the retro theme and it is truly gorgeous!  The Retro Sun & Palms Stencil Set includes two pieces. The first piece has the big circle for the sun and the second piece includes trees and seagulls. The two pieces layer perfectly together for a fun summer scene. Samantha started with a kraft cardstock base and then stenciled the sun with lines through it, carefully blending the colors across the image.

Then she used the second stencil and added trees with white texture paste and glitter! So pretty!

The gulls were added in the upper corner using black ink. To finish it off she added the sentiment from the Seashell Roundabout Stamp Set, stamped and embossed onto a vellum banner that was cut out using our Banner Trio Die Set.

What a fun retro card! Plus, we love simple this card is to create. The stencils complete the scene and then you just need to add a sentiment.

Cherry Blossoms Circle Card by Diane Morales

Enjoy every moment! 

Have you ever created a shaped card? Today's card by Diane is sure to inspired you to do so! She has created a gorgeous circle card featuring our Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set and Circle Frames Die Set.

She created this beautiful card by cutting out two circles using our Circle Frames Die Set from pink cardstock, creating a card base with them. On the front circle she stamped the floral blooms from our Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set, using a pink ink that was slightly darker than the card to give it a fun tone-on-tone look. 

Then she stamped and colored the same beautiful floral blooms from our Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set twice. She left the blooms white but added soft pinks to the centers for a light and airy look. 

She used the sentiment from the Cherry Blossoms Stamp Set, stamping it onto a small rectangle that was cut out using our Basic Frames Die Set. She added some glitter to the edges of the shape and a few pink gems around the flowers to add a bit of sparkle. 

We love shaped cards and we hope this card as inspired you to create some of your own! To see more creations by Diane, you can visit on her blog, 2sisters project.

Thanks a Latte Card by Farhana Sarker

Thanks a Latte!

Today Farhana has created a gorgeous clean and simple coffee themed thank you featuring our Coffee Delights Stamp Set. 

For this card she started out by coloring the mugs from the Coffee Delights Stamp Set using copic markers. 

Here are the colors she used: 

Once the coloring was done she cut the image out using the coordinating Coffee Delights Die Set. Then she stamped the same image with black ink directly onto the card base. She did this twice, letting the image bleed off both edges. She layered the colored image on top of the black and white image. Last, she added the sentiment right below the colored mugs. 

This clean and simple card is so easy to make yet it has such a striking appearance! We love how the colored image really pops off the black and white background! We hope you will give this technique a try!

Sunshine & Smiles Card by Donna Idlet

Sunshine & Smiles!

Today we are share a beautiful floral card by Donna that features our Floral Delights Stamp Set and Spring Blooms Paper Pad. 

For the main floral image on this card Donna stamped and colored the tall echinacea blooms from the Floral Delights Stamp Set. This fun tall bloom is designed to fit on our Bookmark and Bookmark II die sets but it also works perfectly on a card! She cut the image out using the coordinating Floral Delights Die Set and layered it onto a vellum oval that was die cut using our Oval Frames Die Set.

For her card background she cut strips of patterned papers from our  Spring Blooms Paper Pad and layered them across her card. She then added the vellum oval and flowers over the fun patterned background. For the sentiment she used a little white rectangle cut using our Basic Frames Die Set and stamped the "sunshine & smiles" message onto it. 

This cheerful card is so colorful and fun! It's perfect for sending a happy hello to a friend or loved one! To see more beautiful creations by Donna, you can visit her blog, Creative Lady!   

2025 Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!

Today we are playing along with the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Hop!

If you like coffee you are going to LOVE this blog hop! There are so may fun stops on this hop featuring coffee themed cards you are sure to be inspired! There will be prizes too on most of the stops! Read all the way to the end of this post for details on the giveaway from us at Newton's Nook Designs and a link to all the stops. 

For our stop on the hop today I created a duo of cute coffee cards featuring Newton drinking coffee along with some of our fun die sets:

For my first card I used the kitty from our Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set paired with our A Hug in a Mug and Filigree Frame Die Sets.

Isn't Newton so adorable with his arms around that to-go coffee!? I colored the kitty image using copic markers. I figured out my card layout first so I knew what color to make the coffee cup, matching it to the background paper. I also colored the kitty orange to look like Newton!

For the card layout I used our Filigree Oval Frame Die Set, cutting it from white cardstock to create the beautiful swirl filled frame. I layered this over a piece of sage green cardstock. Then I added the sentiment using our A Hug in a Mug Die Set. This set includes the words and a shadow die that is a little larger so you can layer them together. I cut the shadow layer out using a piece of yellow glitter paper from our Cheerful Brights Glitter Cardstock to add a bit of sparkle to the card. Then I mounted it all onto a dark chocolate colored card base. I love how this turned out! 

For my second card I again used the Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set but this time I paired it with our Thanks a Latte, Basic Frames and Lattice Die Sets. 

On this card I used the image of Newton peeking over the table edge at a cup of coffee! So cute! I colored the image with copic markers. For my card layout I used our Lattice Die, cutting it out of pale yellow cardstock. I layered the lattice panel over some coffee bean patterned paper from our Coffee House Stories Paper Pad. 

For the message on this card I used our Thanks a Latte Die Set. This set also includes the word and shadow dies and this time I cut the words out of yellow glitter paper from our Cheerful Brights Glitter Cardstock. For the shadow I used dark teal paper. I layered the sentiment and the image of Newton onto a yellow banner that was cut out using our Basic Frames Die Set. 

I had so much fun creating these coffee cards. It's so easy to pair the stamped images with our fun dies!

I hope you enjoyed these coffee cards today! Thanks for stopping by!
