Pin It

HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!! 

I'm here with the FUN Newton's Nook Designs & WoW Embossing Inspiration Week!! I'm a HUGE FAN of both of these companies!! If you follow me you'll know that I might be alitte OBSESSED with the WoW Glitter Embossing Powders!! Infact, I probably use it on the majority of my Projects!! 😬 

I've created 2 Projects today!! First I've made this SWEET Halloween Card!! I just LOVE this Witchy Newton Image!! It makes me SMILE every time I see it!! If you're an animal lover too, I'm SURE you have the same reaction!!?? 

I started by creating my FUN background using the NEW Gingham Stencil!! I just LOVE this Stencil and there are SO MANY ways to use it!! I've used both Dusty Concord and Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide Inks!! I sprayed the back of my stencil with some Therm O Web Pixie Spray, then placed it over my A2 Cardstock panel!! I Started with the Dusty Concord Distress Oxide Ink and inked the design!! Then removed the Stencil and washed the excess Ink off!! I wanted to create a FUN Crosshatched Design so I flipped the Stencil and then replaced it over the Inked Design linking it up again using Carved Pumpkin Distress Oxide Ink!! I absolutely LOVE the results!!

Halloween makes me think of ALL things FUNKY!! So I thought it would be FUN to use the Bokeh Stencil Set over the top of the Gingham and I Inked it up with an Ink Dauber using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink after using an anti-static tool!! Then added some of the WoW & Simon Says Stamp Witching Hour Embossing Powder!! SWOON!! All of that SPARKLE makes this girls HEART HAPPY!! It's hard to see in the Photos, but in real life this Powder is just AWESOME!! 

I wanted to create a Background to help ground my Sweet Image, so I Die Cut a Circle and inked with Caved Pumpkin Distress Oxide Ink!! Went over it with an Anti-static Tool and then placed the Cascading Stars Stencil over the Circle Die Cut and Inked used Rusty Hinge Distress Oxide Ink and Embossed them using WoW Gloss Clear Embossing Powder!! A few Water Splatters add some extra texture to the background!!! Then I adhered my Stamped and Embossed Image that I colored with Copic Markers!! 

I framed the Background Circle with a couple other Circle Die Cuts one from TE Oreo Cardstock and and one from TE Grape Jelly Cardstock and then Stamped and Embossed the "Best Wishes" Sentiment onto a Circle Die Cut from the Frames Squared Die Set using WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! I Framed it to match the Focal Image and adhered both using Foam Tape to my Cardbase!! A few Sequins with some Iridescent Jewels finishes off the Design!! 

For my Last Card I wanted to create a FESTIVE Holiday Card!! I LOVE Music Paper for the Holidays and I thought it would be FUN to create an Embossed Stencil Design!! I LOVE how it turned out and hope you'll give this Technique a try this Holiday Season!! 

I started by spraying the back of the Holiday Foliage Stencil with some Therm O Web Pixie Spray and then I placed it over the Lawn Fawn Music Patterned Paper!! I then took an Ink Dauber and Inked the Holly Leaves with Pine Needles Distress Oxide Ink after using some Purple Tape to mask them off!! I covered the Inked leaves with WoW Green Glitz Glitter Embossing Powder and heat Set it!! I removed the Purple Tape washed off the Stencil and then replaced it over the Design masking off the Berries!! I inked them with Candied Apple Distress Oxide Ink and then Embossed them with WoW Red Glitz Embossing Powder and Heat set them!! Then before I Stenciled any more of the Design, I Stamped and Embossed the sentiment from the Christmas Haul Stamp Set!! I LOVE this sentiment and I used the WoW Gloss Clear Embossing Powder over my Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink!! 

I then repeated the Process filling in the other Images using Distress Oxide Ink in Vintage Photo Distress Oxide Ink for the Pine Cones and Embossing with Metallic Copper Sparkle Embossing Powder, Peeled Paint Distress Oxide Ink and Embossing with Lime Ricky Embossing Powder!! For the last Images I Inked with Versa Mark Ink and Embossed with Calypso Embossing Powder!! I thing the Design is AMAZING the way that it is, but I wanted to make the Embossed Design POP even more, so I used the same Distress Oxide Inks along with an Ink Dauber to Ink over the Images!! Then I splattered it with some Water Droplets to help add some more Texture!! 

 I Die Cut a TE Cherry Pop Cardstock Panel and then Die Cut the Frames and Flags Scalloped Frame from some TE Oreo Cardstock!! Then I adhered it to the Card Base using some Foam Tape to POP it up and add some Dimension!! I LOVE this Card!! 

I hope I've given you some ideas on ways to mix your Images and Stencils with the AWESOME WoW Glitter Embossing Powders!! Don't forget to stop by both of Newton's Nook Designs Blog and the WoW Embossing Blog for MORE inspiration and to get entered for chances to WIN!!

Hello!!

          SQUEAL!!

         I'm here with Day 1 of the 

               Newton's Nook Designs November Release 2018!! 

.                            Today we're showcasing the NEW  

  "Christmas Haul" Stamp Set, "Moose Mountain" Stamp Set, "Snowman Advice" Stamp Set and 2 NEW Layering Stencils "Plaid Layering" Stencil and "Argyle Layering" Stencil!!

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

 

Are you EXCITED YET!!?? You're going to LOVE it ALL!! I'll admit though, I'm ADDICTED to those NEW Stencils!! I WANT to stencil ALL of the things!! lol  😉

Here's what I've created today!! 

 

For this SWEET Gift Tag I wanted to try my hand at some No-Line Coloring!! I have recently invested in some Polychromos Colored Pencils, and SWOON!! I understand why others are SO in LOVE with them!! I Stamped the Image onto my Kraft Tag Die Cut using the NND Fancy Edges Tag Die!! After coloring the Image in I decided to Emboss the Natural MFT Ink so I Stamped over the Image using Versa mark ink and Embossed it using Clear Embossing Powder!! I think this Step REALLY made the Image Details POP against the Coloring!! I Die Cut it out using the coordinating Die and then Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment!! Again I Stamped part of the Sentiment using MFT Natural Ink and Embossed it using Versa Mark Ink and Clear Embossing Powder and for the FABULOUS I Stamped and Embossed it using some WoW Emerald Glitter Embossing Powder!! SWOON!! I just LOVE Glitter Embossing Powder!! I Inked the background of the Tag with some Lucky Clover Distress Ink added some Water Splatters for texture and adhered the Die Cut Image using some Foam Tape!! I decided to also add some Tonic Studios Aqua Glitter Pen and Nuvo Drops in Morning Dew to some of the Elements just to add some Dimension and Shine!! A Red Seam Binding Bow finishes off the Gift!! 

For my Moose Card, I wanted to create a Slider Design!! My boys, ESPECIALLY Greyson (5) has had a BLAST with this Card!! I also KNEW I wanted to create a Plaid Design for the Card Base!! So I used Tumbled Glass Distress Ink to Ink my Cardbase!! Then I used Ripe Persimmon Distress Ink to create the Plaid Design around the edge!! I LOVE this Stencil Design because I was able to line up the design to make it a cohesive design around my Cardbase just by lining up the stencil!! Then I used Chipped Sapphire to add the other Stencil Pattern to finish off the Plaid Design!! I Die Cut the NND Frameworks Frame from some Black Cardstock and then Layered the Card Design ontop!! I LOVE the Color Palette and think ANY guy (young or old) would appreciate this Card!!  

For the Focal point on my Card I Die Cut the I Die Cut the NND Frameworks Frame from some Distress Watercolor Paper and Inked it up using Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink to match the Stenciling on the Card!! I layered 6 Frames together to make the Frame POP!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment using some Hero Arts Shadow Ink!! I added some Tumbled Glass Distress Ink to make the Sentiment POP!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the SWEET Snowman Image and colored it using Copic Markers!! I Fussy Cut it out and adhered it to the Corner of the Frame!! 

For the Cardbase, I started with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink onto an A2 piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock!! Using Therm O Web Purple Tape to hold my stencil in place to ENSURE a clean Stenciled Design!!  

Next I lined up the Argyle Pattern and Inked again using Spun Sugar Distress Ink!! It's HARD to see in the photos, but there are etched lines that are on the top side of the Stencil to help you with lining the stencil pattern up just right!! Such an AMAZING Design!!  

 

I then brought in the 2nd Stencil and using Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink I decided to line up the Pattern in the open areas!! I wanted to add some Foil and thought it would look best over the Colored ares, so that was my thought process!! There are SO MANY options with this AWESOME Set though!! CAN'T WAIT to see what others will do with it!! 

Then I lined up the Stencil Etching Design over my Inked Cardstock and taped it down using Therm O Web Purple Tape and applied some Deco Foil Transfer Gel over the Stencil using my Tonic Studios Palette Knife!! I applied some Hickory Smoke Distress Ink first, just to help make the Transfer Gel show up in my Photos!! Normally, the Gel Dries Clear and its HARD to see in Photos!! So I wanted to make SURE you could see the Details!! 

Here's what the Design looks like once the Deco Foil Transfer Gel is Dry!! This alone would make a BEAUTIFUL Background!! With just alittle Dimension that Argyle Pattern REALLY comes to life!! 

I Cut a Piece of Iridescent Deco Foil and ran it through my Laminating Machine!! SWOON!! I LOVE the finished results!! I HOPE this HELPS you to think outside of the box and ALL of the different ways you can add your own personal touches to these Plaid, or Argyle Layering Stencil Sets!!
