Bunny Week - Day 3 - Yukari Yoshioka and Danielle Pandeline

Name the Bunny Week At Newton's Nook Designs!

All week we will be featuring Bunny cards from our design team to get you excited for a NEW bunny set next week! PLUS - we are holding a poll to choose a name for the bunny character! Details for the voting are at the end of this post. 

Bunny Week Cards - day 3:

Today we have bunny inspiration from Yuki and Danielle!

Yuki created this delightful bunny card using our Touchdown Tails stamp set! Isn't the bunny so adorable in that cheerleader outfit? I love how the "hip-hip-hooray" sentiment can be used for many different occasions. Yuki created a birthday card but it would work for any sort of celebration! I love the fun geometric embossed background too! Super fun! 

This groovy card by Danielle puts me in the mood for summer - although it's barely even spring yet - LOL! I think this stamp of the bunny in the hula skirt from the Beach Party stamp set is one of my favorites! The fun inked shapes and splatters really add such a fun touch to this card! Adorable!!

 Vote to help us name our Bunny for a chance to win!

What should Newton's Nook Designs name their bunny character? This cute bunny has appeared on six different stamp sets - as a cheerleader, in a hula skirt, buried in snow and more! Now she needs a name! With the help of their design team and friends they've chosen some favorite names but now they need your help. Check out this poll and vote for your favorite name.  Plus - two random winners will be chosen from all the votes to WIN the new 4 x 6 Hello Spring stamp set featuring the bunny! You can vote once a day - until Sunday, March 14th! Winners will be announced on Tuesday, March 15th with the reveal of the new Hello Spring stamp set! 

Head over to our poll to vote - enter here - and share with your friends too!

Enjoy Your Day Card by Crafty Math Chick

Enjoy your Day with this Adorable Kitty Card!

Is everyone ready for summer? This sweet summer card by Crafty Math-Chick will definitely put you in the mood for some summer fun!  She used our cute little image of Newton in the inner tube from the Newton's Summer Vacation stamp set and added a ton of fun waves for him to play in! I love now the waves peek up over the inner tube! The "enjoy your day" is also from the Newton's Summer Vacation stamp set but that cute little beach ball she has bouncing in the waves is from the Beach Party stamp set.

Thanks, Crafty Math-Chick for the fun card today! To see more details and other projects, you can visit her blog, Canines & Card Designs.

By the way - Did you notice she used the color combo from our inky paws challenge as inspiration? She turned it sideways and used the fun candles instead of banners! So cool! See challenge info below.

Today I'm sharing this awesome birthday card Samantha Mann! She used the image of the flamingo wearing an inner tube from the Flirty Flamingos stamp set - love how she colored with the some fun pink speckles! Then she created some really fun watercolor splotches for the background and added in some waves using the wave border from the Beach Party stamp set! This is such a great beachy card to send someone for to wish them a cheerful birthday!

It's a Beach Party with Crafty Math-Chick!

Headin' to the Beach with Newton & Friends!

Today I'm sharing a AWESOME beach scene by Crafty Math-Chick! This card uses three of our newest stamp sets! The fun kitties in the front are  Newton's Summer Vacation stamp set. I love how she overlapped them and added some real seashells to the scene! They look like they're having so much fun! In the background are two fun Crocodiles playing beach ball and the wave border from our Beach Party stamp set! The thought bubble is from the Newton's Daydream set and holds the "life's a beach" sentiment from our Beach Party stamp set! There is a TON OF FUN squeezed into this card, don't you think?

Gone Surfin' with Winston!

Hello Surfer!

Today I'm sharing a fun surfing bear card featuring Winston, our adorable bear, donning his swim trunks and out to the catch a wave on the beach! I used the bear and surfboard images from our new Beach Party stamp set - stamped them in black and colored them with copics. Then I fussy cut them out and created some waves out of various blue papers.  I just used a scissor to cut curves. Then I stamped added the wave border, also from the Beach Party set along the bottom.  I also stamped the "hello" from our Winged Wishes set!
