Newton's Nook Designs March Release ~ "Newton Dreams of London"!! =)

Pin It
HELLO!!
Welcome to the Second Day of the Newton's Nook Designs March Release!! Today we are showcasing the New "Newton Dreams of London" Stamp Set and the Coordinating Die Set!!
SQUEAL!! How FUN are these Images!!??
I made two cards to share with you today!! My First Card just had to be a Shaker Card!! My FAVORITE kind of Card to make!!  =) I Stamped and Embossed the ENTIRE Background of a A2 Distress Watercolor Card Base!! I REALLY LOVE the look of the Black and White Print Patterned Papers so I was going for that type of Design!! I Stamped almost ALL of the Images from the Set!! It took me a couple Practice runs to get the Design just right, but I REALLY LOVE the way it turned out!! I then created my Window and used Vellum to soften the Stamped Design behind the Window so that Newton could take center stage!! Then I used several Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh to finish off my Card Design!!
                                                                                          For my Second Card I wanted to create a FUN Scene Inspired by the Mary Poppins Movie!! =) So I Stamped and Embossed my Scene!! I had to do some Masking, in order to get the look I was going for!! I also used the Eifel Tower and the Phone Booth Image to create a Single Building Front Design!! I then Stamped and Embossed Newton in ALL of his Glory!! I used Distress Water colors to color the Images and added some Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker for some Sparkle!! =)

Newton's Nook Designs March Release ~ Hello Spring!! =)

Pin It

HELLO!!
Welcome to the Newton's Nook Designs March Release!! I'm SO EXCITED to showcase the New "Hello Spring" Stamp Set with you today!! Just look at these SWEET Images!! Did you happen to join us for the Name that Bunny Contest Week last Week!!?? Well we held a contest to Name the Sweet Bunny Image and this New Set has Two New Bunny Images!! =) We're HAPPY to announce that her Name is       !! If you missed out on ALL of the FUN and Inspiration I hope you'll go and check it out!! SO MANY AMAZING Creations were shared by the DT ALL Week and  if nothing else maybe you'll find some New Coloring Inspiration for how to Color   in!!??  =) Okay, back to the Release!! Check out this Set in ALL of its BEAUTY!! =)
Isn't this Set FULL of SWEET Images!! SQUEAL!! I just LOVE LOVE LOVE SPRING!!
Here's my Card for today!! =)
I started with the SWEET Bunny Image and Stamped and Embossed her onto some Distress Watercolor Paper!! Then I used my Copic Markers to Color her in (N0, N2, N4 and 0 for some texture)!! I used Several Pastel Colors for the Tulips and then added some Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker and some White Gel Pen Dots for some Highlights!! I just LOVE LOVE LOVE how she tuned out!! I KNEW I wanted the have her look like she was in her Garden Picking Flowers to give to her LOVED ones!! =) So I decided to use the Reverse Confetti Basket Die and I decided I needed to ALTER it some to fit the scale of my Bunny Image/Card better!! It normally has 6 Rows of Wicker and I just cut one row of wicker off of each side to narrow it down and then just cut down 2 Rows to shorten it!! Then cut the Sweet Liner alittle to fit!! The Bunny Images hides most of that anyway so no one would EVER KNOW unless you told them!! =) So now I can use this AMAZING Little Basket Die with so many more Images!! LOVE!! =) I then Stamped and Embossed 8 Tulips and a Butterfly Image also from the "Hello Spring" Stamp Set and colored them all using the same Copic Colors!! Covered them with some Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker and added the White Gel Pen Highlights and added them to my Basket!! I left one outside laying infront of the Basket and then added the Butterfly above the Basket!! =) I used the New Pretty Pink Posh Border Dies to create a Sweet Little Lace inspired Panel and then used a Lil' Inker Designs Quilted Swirl Stitched Patterned Die to create the BEAUTIFUL Quilted Swirl Stitched Design on my Card Base!! I REALLY LOVE the Sweet Feel and Look of this Card and think it could be used for ANY OCCASION!! I decided not to stamp a sentiment on the Front and left it open so I can add one t the Inside of the Card when I need to use it!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE these Sweet Images and think they make the PERFECT Scenes!! I also don't think they have to be used just for Easter Cards/Images either!! Think of Welcome Baby Cards, Spring Cards, Thinking of You Cards too!! =)

I'm here today to share the FUN Name that Bunny Contest that we are hosting with Newton's Nook Designs!! SQUEAL!! I have ALWAYS LOVED this Sweet Little Bunny and with SPRING approaching its the PERFECT time to give her a Name!! =) I've created Several Projects for today to help get you in the Mood for not only Picking a Name for this Sweet Little Bunny, but also to help get you MOTIVATED and INSPIRED to create!! I hope these Cards help you to do just that!!??
First I've created a FUN Window Card that uses the NND Garden Whimsy Stamp Set!!
Garden Whimsy | 4x6 Photopolymer Stamp Set | Newton's Nook Designs
Bunny "Life's a Garden" Card | Garden Whimsy | 4x6 photopolymer Stamp Set | Newton's Nook Designs
SQUEAL!! This set is one of my Favorites!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE ALL of the Images that you can use to create some pretty AMAZING Scenes!! I Water Colored the Images using my Distress Markers and did LOTS of Masking in order to create the Scene!!
For my Next Card I decided to use the SWEET NND Bunny Hop Stamp Set!!
Bunny Butt Easter Card | Bunny Hop | 3x4 photopolymer Stamp Set | Newton's Nook Designs 
This is another one of my FAVORITE Stamp Sets!! Seriously, who doesn't LOVE a Bunny's Butt!!?? SQUEAL!! =) Just makes me HAPPY!! I wanted to create a Sweet Water Colored Scene as the Focal for my Card and then I teamed it with some BEAUTIFUL MFT Plaid Patterned Paper!! PERFECT Pairing for Spring!! =) I used the Silly Stitched Die Set from Lil' Inker Designs for the Card Panel and the Circle I Stamped my Scene on!! I LOVE the way it looks!! =) I used some Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker to add some SPARKLE to parts o my Scene!! Then a Sprinkling of Iridescent Sequins finishes off my Card Design!!
 
My Last Card uses SEVERAL NND Stamp Sets to create a REALLY SWEET Spring Scene!!
I Stamped and Embossed ALL of my Images after Masking in order to create a Realistic One Layer (ish) Card!! I used the NND Bunny Hop Stamp Set along with the NND Versatile Vases Stamp Set, NND Winter Tails Stamp Set, and the NND Newton's Daydream Stamp Set!! I used Distress Water Color Paper and Clear WoW Embossing Powder!! Then Distress Markers to Water Color the Images!! Some Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker adds just the right amount of SPARKLE!! =) Then just had to add a Fuzzy Pom-Pom for the Bunnies Tail!!
Versatile Vases - 4x6 photopolymer flower, vases, pots, sentiments stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs.   Winter Tails | 4x6 photopolymer Stamp Set | Newton's Nook Designs
  Newton's Day Dream | 3x4 photopolymer Stamp Set | Newton's Nook Designs
