Paper Sweeties April Release Rewind ~ Hello!!

HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!!

Welcome to Day 3 of the Paper Sweeties

April Release 2019 Rewind!!

I created a SWEET Hoppy Easter Card using the *NEW* stamp set called "Hello" Stamp Set and the coordinating "Hello" Sweet Cuts Die Set which are now live in the Paper Sweeties Shop!!

Here's a look at the NEW Products, you're going to LOVE them!!

Hello

Hello Sweet Cuts

I Stamped and Die Cut the Flowers and Leaves using Distress Oxide Inks!! I used
Tattered Rose, Abandoned Coral and Candied Apple for the larger Flower, Victorian Velvet and Seedless Preserves for the smaller Flowers and Peeled Paint and Peacock Feathers for the Leaves!! I wanted to create a SWEET Easter Card, so I decided to pair the Flowers with the Banner and Sweet Bunny Image from the Basket Add-on: Hoppy Easter Stamp Set and Die Cut them out using the coordinating Basket Add-on: Hoppy Easter Sweet Cuts Set!! I Stamped and EMbossed the Images and colored them with Copic Markers!! I used N0, N2, N4 & N6 for the Bunny, R00 for the Cheeks, V93, V09 for the Bow to coordinated with the Purple Flowers and just alittle N0 for the banner to add some shading!! I added the Flowers & Leaves using 3D Foam Squares then added a few Sugar Sprinkles Flower Sequins using some Glitter Nuvo Drops for the center of the Flowers to add some Sparkle!! Then added it to my Card Base!! I LOVE the way it turned out and hope I've given you some FUN Inspiration on ways you can use the NEW "Hello" Stamp and Die Set!!

Paper Sweeties April Release Sneak Peeks ~ Hello!! =)

Pin It

HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!!

Welcome to Day 1 of the Paper Sweeties

April Release 2019 Sneak Peeks!!

I created a SWEET Gift Tag using a *NEW* stamp set called "Hello" Stamp Set which will be live in the Paper Sweeties shop TOMORROW!!

I Started by Die Cutting the For You Stitched Tag from some Distress Watercolor Paper!! I inked the Background of the Tag with some Tumbled Glass and Cracked Pistachio Distress Inks!! It's REALLY light, but in real life its really striking against the Stamped Flowers!! Then I Stamped the Flowers using Distress Oxide Inks in Tattered Rose, Abandoned Coral and Candied Apple for the larger Flower, Victorian Velvet and Seedless Preserves for the smaller Flowers and Peeled Paint and Peacock Feathers for the Leaves!! I also Stamped the Sentiment using Peacock Feathers and then I adhered it to a Gift Bag with a Mini Clothes Pin and added a Strawberry Seam Binding Bow to finish it off!! I LOVE the way it turned out!!

Newton's Nook Designs April Release ~ Newton's Birdhouse, Mother's Day & Father's Day!! =)

Pin It

Hello!!

SQUEAL!!

I'm here with Day 3 of the

Newton's Nook Designs April Release 2019!!

. Today we're showcasing the NEW "Newton's Birdhouse" Stamp Set + coordinating "Newton's Birdhouse" Die Set, "Mother's Day" Stamp Set & "Father's Day"Stamp Set!!

Let's take a look at the AWESOME New Products!!

For this Card I wanted to create a BEAUTIFUL Spring/Summer Scene!! I started by steciling the Background Clouds!! Using the Sky Borders Die to create a Stencil from some 6X6 Stenciling Plastic!! I use it for most of my Sky backgrounds!! I used a combo of Tumbled Glass and Cracked Pistachio!! Then I wanted to create a SUN w/ Sun Rays coming from behind the NEW Fence Die so I used the Sunscape Stencil using Scattered Straw and instead or rubbing the ink on which would create a GREEN color I just pounced it on the the Yellow would stay crisp!!

I LOVE the way it turned out!!

I wanted a White Picket Fence so I die Cut the NEW Fence Die and used a N2 Copic Marker to add some shading!! I used the Land Borders Die for the Grass Die Cut from some TE Carfdstock and then used Peeled Paint, Mowed Lawn and Gathered Twigs to add some shading and dimension, plus some shadows!! A few Flowers from the Woodland Spring and Bunny Hop Stamp Sets finish off the Ground Design!! For my sentiment I Stamped and Embossed it onto the NEW Speech Bubble Die and then added another SWEET Bird to finish it off!! I Die Cut the Scalloped Frame from some Lawn Fawn Patterned Paper using the Frames & Flags Die Set!!

I used the NEW Mother's Day Stamp Set and combined it with the typewriter image from My Type Stamp Set to create a stunning combination!! I Stamped and Emboissed the XOXO Sentiment and a Heart with some WoW Glitter Embossing Powder in Red for some Sparkle!! I also added a few extra flowers around the typewriter using stamps from the Lovely Blooms Stamp Set, Bunny Hop Stamp Set, and Woodland Spring Stamp Set along with their coordinating dies. I used Copic Markers to color everything in, going for a Bright and Cheerful color Palette!! The beautiful image was framed with a scallop edged frame cut out using our Frames & Flags Die Set from some Sunny Studio Patterned Paper!!

Some Pretty Pink Posh Irridescent Jewels were scattered around and I added Nuvo Glitters Drops to the centers of all of the Flowers for some extra Spatrkle!! I LOVE the way the Design came together!!

For my last Card I used the NEW Deco Foil Copper Metallix Gel to stencil the NEW Hardwood Stencil onto some Simple Stories Wood Grain Patterend Paper!! I used the Stencil Pal and the NEW Pixie Spray and then removed the Stencil to let the Gel Dry!! It's such a NEAT look in real Life!!

I Stamped and Embossed the NEW Father's Day Stamp onto some TE Sugar Cube Cardstock that I inked with some Tumbled Glass and Stormy Sky Distress Inks and then Die Cut using the Ginka K Designs Labels Die Set!! I also Fussy Cut some TE Kraft Cardstock using the Die to create a Frame that I inked with Gathered Twigs Distress Ink to make it POP!! I Die Cut some Authentique Denim Patterned Paper for the Base!! Inking it with some Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink to make it POP!!

I colored the Images using Copic Markers and then I added some Glossy Accents to make them POP!! I added the Label to my Card using Foam Tape and then I added some Honey Bee Stamps Glass Bubbles scattered around for some added Shine and Color!! I really like how it turned out and just KNOW my Father-In-Law is going to LOVE it come Father's Day!!

Pin It

Hello!!

SQUEAL!!

I'm here with Day 3 of the

Newton's Nook Designs April Release 2019!!

. Today we're showcasing the NEW

"Moo" Stamp Set + coordinating "Moo" Die Set!!

Let's take a look at the AWESOME New Products!!

I wanted to create a FUN Scene for my Card today!! We live on a Farm and this is exactly how it looks when we have the cows in the pasture!! I've ALWAYS LOVED our Barn and KNEW I had to add it to the scene too!! Growing up we had Milk cows that we milked each morning and night and we would drink the milk and use the cream to make butter, ice cream ect.!! I also showed them at the County Fair and I still have all of the Trophies to show what BEAUTIFUL Milk Cows they were!! Missy and Lily were their names!! Here's a Photo of me with Missy circa 1982!!
I LOVE these Memories!! 💓

I used the NEW Fence Die along with some Simple Stories Wood Grain Patterned Paper and the Land Borders Dies for the Grass!! I Die Cut it from some TE Cardstock and then inked the edges with Peeled Paint, Mowed Lawn and Gathered Twigs to add someDimension and Texture!! I used Copic Markers to color the Images and the coordinating Dies to Die Cut them out!!

I used N0, N2, N4 & N6 ROO E30, E33 & E35 for the Milk Cows, Y11, Y15 and YR23 for the Bell and Hay in the Barn Loft, R43, R46 & R89 for the Barn and Collar and G40, G43 & G46 for the Grass. For some added dimension and shine I added some Tonic Studios Morning Dew Nuvo Drops to the Horns, Bell and Hooves of the Milk Cows!! I finished it off with a Red Strip Patterned Paper that I Die CUt using the Frameworks Die!!

I LOVE the way it turned out and as you can probably guess the Release this month makes this Country Girl EXTREMELY HAPPY!! 😁
