Candy Corn Card by Amanda Wilcox

Time for Candy Corn!

If you like candy corn you are going to love this yummy candy filled card by Amanda featuring our Candy Corn Newton Stamp Set and our Candy Corn Stencil Set. 

For her main image she stamped and colored the adorable kitty wearing the Halloween costume from the Candy Corn Newton Stamp Set. She cut the image out with the coordinating Candy Corn Newton Die Set. She then created a spooky night scene using several die sets. She started by cutting out the stitched rectangle using our Frames & Flags Die Set. She then cut out some black grass with our Land Borders Die Set. For the sky she cut out clouds, stars and a moon using our Spooky Sky Die Set. She assembled all the pieces together, adding a little bit of distress ink onto the yellow moon and the edges of the rectangle. 

To create the candy corn background she used our  Candy Corn Stencil Set. This stencil has three pieces that you can line up easily to create the three different colors. Amanda inked her layers over black cardstock. On the dark cardstock the colors become desaturated and it makes a great spooky or night time look! 

After everything was assembled she added the sentiment from the Candy Corn Newton Stamp Set, stamping it onto a small oval that was cut out with our  Oval Frames Die Set.

We love this fun and spooky night scene! Perfect for Halloween!

Sweet Candy Shaker Birthday Card by Larissa Heskett

Shake Up a Birthday!

Today Larissa has created a shaker card filled with candy that is perfect for sending sweet birthday wishes. Did you know you can get candy corn in different colors? Larissa loves to give her friend pink candy corn for her birthday and created this fun card to match!

he uses purple, pink and white on her candy corn layers using our Candy Corn Stencil Set. The dark colored background gives this candy themed card a fun and unique twist! She next stitched a clear pocket over the background and filled it with tiny sequin hearts to make it into a shaker card. She layered the sentiment "Happy Birthday" onto the top, stamping it from our Newton's Block Party Stamp Set onto a circle that was cut using our Circle Frames Die Set. The whole panel was mounted onto a pink scalloped edge frame, cut out with our Frames & Flags Die Set. So fun!

Here is a close-up so you can see all the details:

We love how you can stretch this Halloween themed stencil to use throughout the year, just by changing the colors!

Candy Corn Card by Donna Idlet

Time for Candy Corn! 

Today Donna has created a yummy candy card featuring a fall favorite - candy corn! 

She started out by creating a fun background using our Candy Corn Stencil Set! This set includes three layers so it's easy to make that traditional 3 color candy treat! She inked hers over black cardstock for a fun and unique look! It's so fun how you can still see all three colors over the black! The stenciled panel was die cut using our Frames & Flags Die Set to give it a fun scalloped edge too. 

On top of this fun background she added some brightly colored candy corn for a fun contrast! She used our Candy Corn Stamp Set and Candy Corn Die Set to create these cuties! She also added the fun candy corn sentiment from the  Candy Corn Stamp Set onto the card center. She framed is using circles that were die cut using our Circle Frames Die Set. That orange scalloped border really makes the sentient pop! 

This card is making me hungry for candy corn! Have you purchased any yet this year? I admit that we already have a bag in our house!

Candy Corn Counts as a Vegetable, right? Card by September Guest Designer Priscilla Joseph

Hello Crafty Friends!
I am feeling a little bummed that this is my 4th and final post as the September Guest Designer for Newton's Nook Designs. But I certainly enjoyed the opportunity to showcase Newton’s Nook adorable images for you every Monday this month. I want to especially thank Jennifer and Samantha for inviting me to be on the blog. It was an honor!

The hint I posted last week for today’s card was “Should candy corn be included in the ‘Food Pyramid’?” Did you guess that I would be featuring the Candy Corn Stamp Set and Candy Corn Stencil Set? You guessed right!

 

This final card has a touch of “silly” in it as I literally played out the stamp set’s sentiment, “Candy Corn counts as a Vegetable, right?”. I sponged shades of green through the Candy Corn Stencil Set and Copic-colored the candy corn images themselves in those same vegetable green shades.

Card Details:

• I created an A2 card base and layered green cardstock over it.
• I used the new 3-piece Candy Corn layered stencil set to create a “three-toned” candy corn background (using dark green, medium green, and white pigment inks on kraft cardstock.) This was so easy to accomplish as all three stencils feature etching of the opposite layers for easy alignment.
• The candy corn images were stamped and colored with Copic markers and die cut out.
• I created a planter stand out of green cardstock and cut the top edge with a grass die.
• The sentiment “Candy Corn counts as a Vegetable, right?” was white heat embossed on top and then adhered over the “planted corn”. 

 

I hope you enjoyed my literal interpretation of this funny stamp sentiment. I know I was giggling just a little as I was creating this card. And I hope I was able to inspire you to make Autumn or Halloween cards using Newton’s Nook products.

Take care!
- Priscilla
