Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop w/ Newton's Nook Designs!!

Pin It

HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!! 

I'm back with another Card using some Newton's Nook Designs Products!! They're GENEROUS Sponsors for the Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop that ends tonight at 11:55 PST!! 

Here's what I've created for today!! 

I wanted to share another idea on how to use those AMAZING NND 4x6 Stamp Set!! Today I'm using the Caffeinated Cats Stamp Set!! 

I wanted to share how you can use this Image to Die Cut any Shape!! I thought this Coffee Die was PERFECT!!  Whether you use a Die Cut Window over the Image, or just Die Cut the Image there are SO many possibilities!! I then used Copic Markers to color the Image in a Brown Color Tone (I used Coffee Cup: E31, E33, E37 and E39) then wanted to add the Sunflower Stamp to help ground the Coffee Cup!! (I used Sunflowers: Y11, Y19 & YR23  E44, E47 & E49 Greenery: YG61, YG63 & YG67) 

I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment from the Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set!! Then I coated the center of the Sunflowers with some Nuvo Drops and added some Gold Pretty Pink Posh Jewels to finish off the Design!! I Die Cut a Kraft Frame from the NND Framework Die Set and adhered it to my A2 Card Base!! 

I hope I've INSPIRED you and that you're eager to Hop along and JOIN in on the FUN!! 

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today and 

I hope you have a FABULOUS WEEK!!

Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop w/ Paper Smooches & Therm O Web!!

Pin It

HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!! 

I'm back with a couple Cards using some Paper Smooches and Therm O Web Products!! Both of these Companies are GENEROUS Sponsors for the Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop that ends tomorrow at 11:55 PST!! 

Here's what I've created for today!! 

SQUEAL!! How CUTE is this Lil' Guy!!?? When I saw the NEW Caffeinated Stamp Set I KNEW I wanted to create a Rudolph!! I started by Stamped and Embossed the Image and then Stamped and Embossed the Glasses/Face Images and Colored it with Copic Markers!! (Cozy: E42, E43, E44 & E47  Cheeks: RV11  Glasses: BG10  Cup & Lid: W0, W2 & W5) I Fussy Cut the Image and added some White Gel Pen Details and a Red Pom-Pom for the Nose!! I knew I wanted to Dress him up so I used the Reindeer Die Set and Die Cut the Antlers and the Ears!! I Colored them with Copic Markers to match the Cup/Body using the same Copic Markers listed above!! I also wanted to add a FUN Stocking Cap so I die Cut some Pattern Paper using a Discontinued Die, but the Stocking Hat from the Snowman 2 Die Set would also work!! I added a Gold Jingle Bell for the Top!! How CUTE is he!!?? I just CAN'T stop SMILING!! 😍 I wanted to use the NEW Joy Dies for part of my sentiment and I Die Cut them from some Pattern Paper and then backed them with Black Cardstock!! I Stamped and Embossed the "bursting with" Sentiment from the NEW Spreading Joy Stamp Set and then inked with some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink to tie in with my Background Spotlight!! 

To help Ground the Scene I created a Circle Masked Panel and Inked with Distress Oxide Ink in Tumbled Glass and then added some Water Splatters for some texture resembling Falling Snow!! I wanted to help ground the Scene by adding some Greenery using the NEW Laurels Die Set and then I Die Cut a Small Poinsettia using the Poinsettia Die Set from some Therm O Web Deco Foil Ruby Red Flocking Sheets that I adhered to some Red Cardstoock with some Easy Cut Adhesive Sheets!! I inked the edges with some Aged Mahogany Distress Oxide Ink and added a Gold Jewel for the center!! I LOVE the way it looks in real life!! Just like a REAL Poinsettia!! For the Gift Tag I Stamped and Embossed the Image from the Crystal Clear Stamp Set and Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment "For You" from the Enchanted Elves Stamp Set using some WoW Embossing Gold Pearl Glitter Embossing Powder and then Fussy Cut it out and added a Burlap Twine Bow!! I think it just really adds to the Image and finished off the Sentiment I had in mind "Bursting with Joy for You"!! 

I hope I've given you some ideas on ways to mix and match your Older Paper Smooches Stamp/Die Sets with some of the NEW Paper Smooches Stamp/Die Sets to create some projects SURE to bring a SMILE this Holiday Season!! 

For my last Card I wanted to use some Therm O Web Iridescent Deco Foil to create a really SWEET Card to send to a Friend!! I created my Circle Masked Background first by Inking with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink and then I added Water Splatters for some texture!! Then I Die Cut the Cup from the Cuppa Sunshine Die Set, once from White and once from TE Cupcake Cardstock!! I used Copic Markers to Color in the Die Cuts and I LOVE the MANY options you have for customizing this Die for your Projects!! I wanted to add a Sweet Face to my Sun so I Die Cut the Eyelashes and Mouth from the Sunny Die Set and the Glasses also from that set from some Therm O Web Toner Sheets that I foiled with the Iridescent Deco Foil!! I also wanted to Foil part of my Sentiment so I Stamped and Embossed the "Hello" Sentiment from the Caffeinated Stamp Set and ran it through my Laminating machine with some Iridescent Deco Foil on top!! I LOVE the way it looks!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the other sentiment underneath from the NEW Caffeinated Stamp Set!!  

I wanted to add some extra Cloud Images to help ground the Image so I Die Cut a couple extra Clouds using the Cute Cloud Die Set!! I inked the edges to add some texture using N0 and N2 Copic Markers!! I added some Clay Hearts that I colored with my Copic Markers to Match and then I adhered the Panel onto a scalloped Die Cut Deco Foil Toner Sheets that was Foiled with Iridescent Deco Foil!! I think it finished off the entire design and in Real Life the Iridescent Shine just really makes this Card SHINE!!

I hope I've INSPIRED you and that you're eager to Hop along and JOIN in on the FUN!! 

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today and 

I hope you have a FABULOUS WEEK!!

HELLO!! 

Welcome to the CAS-ual Fridays 7th Anniversary Release Week and it's just in time for the Fall Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!!

Today we're showcasing the NEW "Coffee Days" and "Cup Refills" Stamp Sets!! Coffee Days is a 3X4 Stamp Set with an AMAZING Large Sentiment and several Little Images!! Cup Refills is a 4X6 Stamp Set FULL of Sentiments that can be used for LOTS of different Cards!! Here's a Look at this NEW Set!!

I wanted to show how you can use these sets together along with other Images from your Stash!! I LOVE the SWEET Critters from the SALE "Bushy Tailed" Stamp Set!! (Plus, use my Code and receive another 15% off the SALE Price 😉) I LOVE stamping Images onto Pattern Paper and then using my Copic Markers to Color them!! (Fox: YR14, E18 and E99  Cheeks: R00  Coffee Mug: BG000, BG10 and BG45  E44 and E49)  I used the coordinating Fox Banner Fri-Dies and Die Cut the Fox then Fussy Cut the Colored Image and placed it onto the Die Cut Image for a nice white Border!! I wanted to dress up the SWEET Fox Images so I Stamped and Embossed the Coffee Mug from the NEW "Coffee Days" Stamp Set and Fussy Cut it out to place on the Fox!! I also Die Cut a Small Flower from the Garden Fri-Die Set and Colored it with Copic Markers in RV11 and RV34 and then placed an Aquamarine Jewel in the center!! I placed it on the Fox and I LOVE the feminine touch it adds!! I Die Cut two Circles one from Black Cardstock and one from White Cardstock that I inked with some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink!! 

I created my Background by Stamping the Coffee Beans from the NEW "Coffee Days" Stamp Set around the Stenciled NND Paw Prints Stencil that I inked using Rusty Hinge Distress Ink and added some Water Splatters for some Texture!! I then placed the Circles ontop and then Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment from the NEW "Cup Refills" Stamp Set on to some Wood Grain Pattern Paper!! I used Foam Tape to pop it up and I LOVE the way it turned out!!

I have SEVERAL Projects to share,  so lets jump right in!! =)

For my First Project I Started with the NEW "Plaid Stencil" Set and "Argyle Stencil" Set along with Distress Inks and some WoW Glitter Embossing Powder and created a BEAUTIFUL Holiday Plaid Background!! 

Then I used the "Newton's Candy Cane" Stamp Set and Stamped and Embossed the images and used used the coordinating "Newton's Candy Cane" Die Set and Die Cut them out!! 

I used Candied Apple Distress Ink, Tumbled Glass and Inked the Plaid Stencil!! Then used Versa Mark Ink to Stencil the Argyle Stencil and added WoW Glitter Embossing Powder to add some Sparkle!! 

I used Copic Markers to Color in the Images and added some Tonic Studios Aqua Shimmer Pen for some added Sparkle!! For the Card Front Panel I used the "Snowfall Stencil" and some Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass to add some texture to the background of the Panel!! I Die Cut a Black Base using the NND Framework Die Set!!  I Stamped and Embossed the sentiment and I used some WoW Glitter Embossing Powder in Red to make the "SWEET" word POP!! I Die Cut a Mug from Paper Sweeties from some Tim Holtz Patterned Paper and added a Heart Image also from the "Newton's Candy Cane" Stamp Set!! I LOVE how it turned out!!

For my Second Card I used the Same two Stencil Sets to create my Holiday Plaid Background!! Then I added WoW Glitter Embossing Powder in Red for this one!! I LOVE the versatility of these stencils and the unlimited possibilities for Color combos and designs you can create!! 

I've used the   to Ink my Card Panel Background again using Tumbled Glass Distress Ink!! I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment and used WoW Glitter Embossing Powder in Red to make the "CHEER" word POP!! I used the NND Essential Alphabet Dies to Die Cut the Letter "H" from some Black Cardstock and some Fun Foam!! I adhered them together using some Therm O Web Liquid Adhesive!! Then I Stamped and Embossed the Images form the "Cup of Cocoa" Stamp Set and Die Cut them out using the coordinating "Cup of Cocoa" Die Set!! I added some iCraft 3D Foam Squares and adhered them to the Card panel!! For the Scalloped Edges I used the NND Frames & Flags Die Set!! 

If you follow me you may KNOW my Lil' Artist in Training Gryeson!! He's 5 yrs. old and started Kindergarten this Fall!! So he doesn't get to craft with me as much as he used too, but he was able to make a couple Ornaments for the Blog Hop today!! We have Gifts all ready for his Teachers for the Holidays and he wanted to include an Ornament for each of the Packages!! For this first one he used the Ornamental Newton Stamp Set and the coordinating Ornamental Newton Die Set!! He colored it with Copic Markers and then for the Ornament Base we Die Cut a Piece of Glitter Foam and he colored over it with a Red and Silver Crayon!! We backed it with some Gold Cardstock and we Stamped and Greeting and he signed his Name and the Year!! Then we punched a hole in the top, added Newton with some Gina K Designs Foam Tape and added some May Arts Gold Twine for the String!!

For his Next Ornament he used the All Aboard for Christmas Stamp Set and the coordinating All  Board for Christmas Die Set!! He colored it with Copic Markers and he wanted to make it look like a Night Sky so we added some Versa Mark Ink to the top of the Gold Glitter Fun Foam Circle Die Cut and added some WoW Glitter Embossing Powder!! The Circle shrunk alittle when we heated it up, so we added it to a Grey Cardstock Circle and Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment on the back and he signed his name and the Year!! We LOVE the way these turned out and I just KNOW his Teachers will cherish them!!
