Hula Hoop Joy Card by Diane Morales

Spreading the Joy!
Today we are sharing a beautiful and joyful card by Diane!

This card features:
Hula Hoop Newton Stamp Set
Hula Hoop Newton Die Set
Spring Bloom Paper Pack
Pastel Basics Paper Pack
Card Layout 6 Die

Christmas Word Trio Die Set


Hello Newton’s Nook Fans!

Sharing with you today A quick and easy card with a twist!
This card starts off with my choice of these two papers.

This is a good visual tool to see how everything is going to look before you make the commitment of cutting your paper.
For this card I will be using Card Layout 6 Die.
After die-cutting both pieces of paper with this die, I glued all of the pieces together and placed the card front aside to dry.
Next, I turned my attention to Hula Hoop Newton. I stamped, colored and die-cut my image out.
I am also going to prepare my sentiment which is the “twist” for this card.
This sentiment comes from, of all things, a Christmas die!
I am using the word “JOY” from Christmas Word Trio Die Set re-imagined with summer colors.
To create the sentiment I used sparkly white paper that I had in my stash.

 

For the inlaid letters I used purple polka dot paper from Pastel Basics Paper Pack. I cut out all the pieces for the sentiment and then reassembled everything together.
I started assembling my card by attaching my card front to a matching piece of green card base. I added the sentiment piece I created to the front of the card next with foam tape.
Next on the front of the card was Hula Hoop Newton, this this is attached to the front of the card with foam tape.

For a last touch I dabbed on some Icicle Stickles around the hula hoop for some eye-catching sparkle!

Thanks for taking the time to check out my very joyful and summery card!

Summer Coffee Card Set by Rosie Lopez

Summer Coffee House Cards!
Today we are sharing these beautiful watercolor bookmarks by Rosie!

These cards feature:

Coffee Delights Stamp Set
Coffee Delights Die Set
Natural Basics Paper Pad
Frames & Flags Die Set
Card Layout 6 Die Set
Corner Flip Die Set

Hello crafty friends! It’s Rosie and I’m back with another project. My inspiration for this set of cards was a summer coffee house on the beach. I used some muted neutrals and jewel tones with the Coffee Delights Stamp & Die Set. I started my project as I do most of my projects, by stamping out the images a couple times and then choosing a color theme and coloring everything. I like to multi stamp images so I can experiment with marker colors a bit and if I mess up my coloring, I am not stressed about it. After I color and die cut, I find coordinating pattern and solid paper. This time I used the Natural Basics Paper Pad.

 

I am really loving the Frames & Flags Die Set. It has phenomenal dies for layering and I reach for it all the time. This first set of cards is simply layers of pattern paper and cardstock. The Frames & Flags Die Set gives the coffee cups image a nice "stage" to sit on.
The next set is similar but I pulled in a little more of the muted mauve color. Again, I used that Frames & Flags Die Set with the same paper pack. I did add a heart and some brown splatter on the scalloped card but the coffee cups are the focal point.

And because I can't throw anything away, I had these two tiny coffee cups and the coffee beans left so I made them the star of the show using the Card Layout 6 Die Set. This is another card front panel die called the Corner Flip Die Set and that makes putting together a card quick and easy. The Natural Basics Paper Pad is two sided so the flipped edge looks just as good as the front. 

I hope you enjoyed all the inspiration in my post today. If you have not noticed by now, I love to mass produce cards. I use all the bits and pieces and don't like to 'save them for later'. Bits and pieces make the best clean and simple cards and always become my favorite projects of the card making session.

Happy crafting! I'm going back to dreaming of opening a beach-front coffee house that has a sunny craft room upstairs.

NEW! 4th of July Collection + SALE!

Today I am sharing our NEW 4th of July products! This new mini release includes a 4th of July themed stamp set, two fun paper packs, and Firework toner card fronts! Read on to learn more and make sure to read all the way to the bottom of today's post for details on our SALE!

Celebrate and Sparkle!

Hello! Jen here today and I wanted to share a bit more about our NEW 4th of July products! Since it is America's 250th birthday this year we put together a fun little celebratory collection. The products in this collection are perfect for 4th of July and patriotic cards. When designing these products I wanted to also include a firework theme because I think the fireworks will also be great for other celebrations. Think anniversary cards, big birthdays, New Years cards and other celebrations all year long! 

I'm sharing a bit of inspiration I created below and we will have more from our Design Team next week!

First I'm sharing an American flag inspired card using the Stars & Stripes Paper Pack. 

As owner, I also personally design all of our products and when I was designing the  Stars & Stripes Paper Pack, I had the idea in mind that it would be fun to create a flag inspired piece of paper that could be used with our Card Layout 6 Die and Corner Flip Die! So that is exactly what I did and what I used on this card! I cut the frame out from kraft colored cardstock using the Card Layout 6 Die and then cut the paper with the stripes on one side and the stars on the other using the Corner Flip Die. In the center I stamped the sentiment from the Happy 4th Stamp Set. I love how this turned out! 

For my next card I used our Fireworks Paper Pack. This paper pack was a lot of fun to design. There are so many fun ways to create firework patterns! For this card I chose three of the patterns on a dark colored sky. I cut them out using our Card Layout 7 Die. Then I cut out a frame using the same die with a piece of yellow glitter paper from our Cheerful Brights Glitter Cardstock. Once I had the fun background assembled I stamped the Happy 4th of July, a firework burst and 1776 from the Happy 4th Stamp Set. I cut them out using various circles from our Circle Frames and Frames Squared Die Sets. This has such a fun celebration feel! 

Last I'm sharing a fun card featuring our Fireworks Toner Card Fronts. This toner pack is filled with options and it's super fun to try them all! Some of the designs (the ones that appear with black as the background) will foil the background the color of foil you choose. The others (the ones that appear with the fireworks in black) will add foil to the fireworks! For this card I used pieces that I had foiled using red and blue on the backgrounds and one that used silver for the fireworks! It's perfect to go with the sentiment "My favorite colors are red, white & you!" from the Happy 4th Stamp Set. To cut out the pieces I used our Card Layout 4 Die. 

I am going to have so much fun using these new fireworks toner panels! I can't wait to make cards for other celebrations! 

I hope you enjoyed my projects today! Everything is available to purchase now and you can use code 1776 for 17.76% off your order through June 11 at newtonsnookdesigns.com

Thanks for reading and stay tuned in the following weeks for more fun inspiration!

For our stop on the hop I created two fun cards using our Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set along with some of my favorite dies and coffee themed papers!

My first card uses:

Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set

Newton Loves Coffee Die Set

Coffee Shop Paper Pack

Card Layout 6 Die

Corner Flip Die Set

I started by coloring Newton peeking over the counter at his cup of coffee from the Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set. I used alcohol markers to color the image, matching the colors with the paper from our Coffee Shop Paper Pack.

Next, I cut out the dark brown frame and white center piece using the  Card Layout 6 Die to create the frame for the background. 

Then I used our Corner Flip Die Set to cut out 4 rectangles using the paper with the coffee mugs from the  Coffee Shop Paper Pack. This die has two pieces and each piece includes a score line angled in one of the corners. I cut out both pieces twice, turning the direction on the second cut so the angles all faced into the center. Then I folded along the score lines and adhered the flaps down. This is such a FUN way to use BOTH sides of your patterned papers! 

To finish the card I stamped the sentiment into the white center piece and added Newton along the center of the card. So cute!!

My second card uses:

Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set

Newton Loves Coffee Die Set

Coffee House Stories Paper Pack

Card Layout 7 Die

Circle Frames Die Set

I started again by coloring an image of Newton from the Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set. This time I chose the image of him hugging the giant takeout coffee. This time I used purple to coordinate with our Coffee House Stories Paper Pack.

For this card I used our Card Layout 7 Die for the background. I cut it out first from Kraft colored paper for the frame edge. Then I used the same die three more times with different papers from the Coffee House Stories Paper Pack to create the three inside pieces. 

I adhered everything together over a purple card base. Last, I added Newton to the card along with the sentiment "I need some coffee right MEOW!"

Happy Spring Card by Diane Morales

Happy Spring!!

Spring is nearly here and today we are celebrating with an adorable card by Diane! This sweet spring themed card combines our new Springtime Bunnies Stamp Set with our Easter Postage Sampler Stamp Set! 

Diane stamped and colored little brown bunnies using the Springtime Bunnies Stamp Set and pink lilies using the Easter Postage Sampler Stamp Set. She cut the images out using their coordinating dies (Springtime Bunnies Die Set and Easter Postage Sampler Die Set). 

For her card she used the new Card Layout 6 Die Set. She cut the frame from white cardstock and used the polka dot paper from the Happy Easter Paper Pack to cut the inside panels. Over that she layered a scalloped circle (cut using the Circle Frames Die Set) and layered the bunnies and flowers over the circle. She also added a banner (cut using the Banner Trio Die Set). She added some fun splatters to the banner for added texture and stamped the message "Happy Spring" using the Springtime Bunnies Stamp Set. 

This fun combination of stamps and dies makes such and adorable spring card!

Hoppy Spring Preview Day 2 - NEW! Card Layout 6 and Corner Flip Dies!

Today I'm sharing two fun new dies from our Hoppy Spring Collection. These dies were designed to work perfectly together. Let's take a look! 

Card Layout 6  and Corner Flip Dies

Flip it over!

I have two cards to share today showcasing these fun new products. 

The first card uses the Card Layout 6 Die on it's own: 

I used the die multiple times to cut out two paper patterns from our Happy Easter Paper Pack along with a light green for the center and white for the frame. I combined all the pieces together. Then I added the "hoppy" and "spring" and the cute bunny with a carrot from the Springtime Bunnies Stamp Set. 

For the next card I added in the Corner Flip Die:

For this card I used the Card Layout 6 Die to cut the frame from purple and the center from white. Then I cut out the four outer pieces using the corner flip die with two different patterned papers. The die includes a score line so it's easy to fold and flip the papers over to reveal the pattern on the opposite side. Once folded, the pieces nest perfectly inside the frame from the Card Layout 6! I created this die design specifically to showcase our pretty patterned papers!   

I hope you enjoyed this preview of our new products! Everything will be available for purchase in our online shop starting Friday, February 13th! I'll be back tomorrow with a look at two more fun Easter products!
