Happy Brr-thday Card by Amanda Wilcox

Happy Brr-thday!

Today we are featuring a fun cold weather birthday card by Amanda that is sure to brighten and cold day!

To create this adorable card she started by stamping and coloring the adorable kitty creating a snow angel from our Snow Angel Newton Stamp Set! Isn't he adorable!?  She cut the image out using the coordinating Snow Angel Newton Die Set.

Next, she created a fun snow filled card with two layers of snowy patterns. For the bottom layer she created white on white snow with dimension using our Snowfall Stencil with white sparkly texture paste over white cardstock! So pretty! She cut this panel out using our Frames & Flags Die Set to give it that fun scalloped edge. 

For the next layer she embossed the snowflake filled circle from our Snowfall Roundabout Stamp Set in white and added a rainbow of ink colors over the top! That fun pop of color is so unexpected for a winter card like this and we think it will definitely make the recipient smile!  She cut this image out using our Circle Frames Die Set. 

To make this into a fun birthday card, she added the sentiment "Happy BRR-thday!" from our Snowman Roundabout Stamp Set and cut it out using our Banner Trio Die Set. We love that she added purple into the word letters BRR too! The bright colors on this card are sure to make any winter birthday feel cheerful!

We hope you have enjoyed this cheerful card by Amanda today! To say hello to Amanda and see more of her awesome creations you can visit her over on her blog, Twiddler's Nook! 

Snowman Card Duo by Zsofia Molnar

Winter Snowmen!

Today we are sharing a wonderful winter card duo by Zsofia featuring some of our favorite winter stamps!

She combined images from our Frosty Folks Stamp Set and Snowfall Roundabout Stamp Set for these cozy winter cards. 

She started out by cutting two panel of kraft cardstock using our Framework Die Set to give them a nice postage stamped edge and stitching. Then she used the big circle of snowflakes from our Snowfall Roundabout Stamp Set and embossed it in white on each of the kraft card panels. 

To create the cute snowman families she used our Frosty Folks Stamp Set. This stamp set includes an image of  5 snowman together but she stamped it twice and carefully cut around them to create two different images that only have three snowmen each. So creative! She colored the snowmen using all different shades of blue and then added them onto each card in front of the snowflake circle. 

For the first card she also added the sentiment,"winter greetings" from the  Snowfall Roundabout Stamp Set, embossed onto a light teal banner that was cut out using our Banner Trio Die Set.

For the second card she added the sentiment,"Happy Brr-thday" from the Snowman Roundabout Stamp Set embossed onto a blue banner that was cut out using our Banner Trio Die Set.

We hope if the weather is cold where you live, these cards have helped send some warm winter wishes your way!.

Sending My Love Snowman Card by Larissa Heskett

Sending Love and Snowmen!

We are loving how the team is thinking of new and fun ways to create Valentine's Day Cards this week!  Today we are featuring a fun snowman themed love card by Larissa! To create this adorable card she stamped the big image of snowman from our Snowman Roundabout Stamp Set and then cut it into a heart shape using our new Heart Frames Die Set! She colored the snowmen in pretty pastel colors and used the image to create a fun heart shaped shaker card. To cut out the shaker frame she also used two of the heart dies from our Heart Frames Die Set. She filled the shaker with sweet sequins and then added it to her card with the "Sending my Love" sentiment from the Heartfelt Love Stamp Set. She also framed it with a scalloped edge cut out of pink polka dot paper using our Frames & Flags Die Set

She even created a coordinating envelope by stamping the snowmen onto the flap! How adorable!

We hope that this card brings makes you smile! Don't forget to take a second look at your stamps to see which ones would work for Valentines! Simply adding a soft color palette and some hearts can turn almost any design into one you can use on a Valentine card!

Hey there!  It's Tricia here with you today sharing my first Newton's Nook guest post!  I am super excited to share some projects with you this month.   I adore snowmen and have a small little collection that I like to keep out all winter after putting away all the Christmas decorations.  It seemed fitting to use the Snowman Roundabout Stamp Set for my first project!   

This stamp set is just so adorable and I love all the tiny snowman images clustered together.  I stamped the image onto Neenah 110 lb cardstock and colored with my Copic markers.  I added some shading around the images and left the background white.   I added some Distress Stickles to the snow to add some sparkle.   

For my card panel, I die cut a circle out of the center of an aqua card panel.  I stenciled the panel with the that had been stenciled with the Gingham Stencil and some aqua ink.  

I just love the sentiment "Stay Frosty" from the Snowman Roundabout Stamp Set and white heat embossed it onto a small strip of black cardstock and added to the panel with some foam tape.   I finished it out with some crystal jewels for a little more sparkle! 

Thank you for joining me today!
