Merry Christmas Card by December Guest Designer Anika Lerche





Hey stampers, Anni here once again.

I am back with my last card as a guest designer for Newton’s Nook Designs. And with Christmas just a few days away I have another Christmas card for you.

Fox Christmas Card by Anika Lerche | Fox Hollow, Holiday Tweets & Holiday Wishes stamp sets by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook


For this card I combined the sets Fox Hollow and Holiday Wishes.

I started by stamping all the images on white cardstock. For the colouring I used coloured pencils. Coloured pencils are my favorite colour medium. It takes a while longer to colour with them but I love the details I can add with them. And I find it much easier to blend colours than with Copics. After finishing the colouring I went over the black lines with a fine tip marker to make the lines real black again.

I fussy cut all the images – I am one of the weird people that LOVE to fussy cut.

I cut down two stripes of white cardstock and adhered it with dimensional foam tape to the card base. Then I assembled the card. For the sentiment I used Merry Christmas from the set Holiday Tweets, embossed it in white on aqua cardstock!

Hope you like my untraditional Christmas card!

Thanks for stopping by! 

- Anni

Christmas for the Birds by Crafty Math-Chick

Christmas Bird Tag Ornament by Crafty Math-Chick | Holiday Tweets Stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook

From our Nest to Yours!

This holiday season don't forget gifts for the birds and bird lovers too! This adorable little project by  Crafty Math-Chick is perfect for the bird lovers in your life! She made this adorable tag that doubles as a tree ornament by stamping the little birdies from our Holiday Tweets stamp set into a circle that fits just inside the mini wreath! Then she added on two more circles that will dangle below the wreath with the sentiments "merry Christmas" and "from our nest to yours!", both also from the Holiday Tweets stamp set. The recipient can put the tag ornament on their tree and hang the pretty birdseed bell gift outside! Everyone will be so happy this holiday!

Thank you, Crafty Math-Chick, for the fun inspiration today! To see more details and other creations by her, make sure to visit her blog, Canines & Card Designs.

Merry Christmas Wreath and Stag Card by Naki Rager

Merry Christmas Wreath and Stag Card by Naki Rager | Happy Little Thoughts Stamp set and Splendid Stag Die set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook

Merry Christmas in (almost) all white!

Have you ever tried making a monochromatic Christmas card? This beautiful (alsmost) all white card by Naki is so elegant!  I love how she used the deer head from our  Splendid Stags Die Set and cut it out in white and kraft paper, layering it to show just a little bit of the kraft color! It almost looks like a shadow! She added the deer to the center of a wreath, stamped in brown from our Happy Little Thoughts stamp set and trimmed out with the coordinating Happy Little Thoughts Die Set. she also used the "merry Christmas" sentiment from our new Holiday Tweets stamp set, embossed in gold on vellum! The added little wooden stars and tiny metallic twine really add the perfect finishing touch!

From our Nest to Yours!

I love the combo of plaid and pine boughs for the Holidays and this card by Stephanie has showcases that exact thing!

What a perfect way to send a greeting "from our nest to yours"!

Merry Christmas Wreath
When you think of Christmas and decorating for the holidays you are sure to think of wreaths! This card by Lydia is so beautiful! She used two stamp sets to create this lovely card. She started by stamping the brown twiggy wreath shape from the Happy Little Thoughts stamp set and then embellished it with tons of little holly leaves, tiny pine branches from our new Holiday Tweets stamp set! In the center she added the "merry christmas" sentiment, also from our new Holiday Tweets stamp set! What a great way to take the tiny little stamps from the set and create something beautiful!
