Newton’s Nook Designs March Release 2026 ~ Retro Party~ Newton’s Mix Tape!!

HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!!

Welcome to Release Week for the Newton's Nook Designs ~ Retro Party Release!! Today I'm sharing a RAD Bookmark that I've made using the NEW Newton’s Mix Tape Stamp Set coordinating NEW Newton’s Mix Tape Die Set, NEW Music Notes Stencil and NEW Retro Mix Toner Card Fronts!!

I just LOVE ALL of these NEW Products and how FUN they are especially for those of us who were Kids in the 80’s!!

I wanted to create a RAD Bookmark for my niece who LOVES ALL things Animal and Music!! She's going to ADORE this Bookmark and the thought of that just makes me HAPPY!!

I Started by Foiling the NEW Retro Mix Toner Card Fronts using some Therm O Web Deco Foil in Mystic Rainbow!! TIP: SAVE that Negative Foil Sheet for another Project!! Then I Die Cut the Foiled Sheet using the NND Bookmark II Die Set!!

I also Die Cut the from some Dark Turquoise Cardstock and then I adhered the Deco Foiled Bookmark to the Cardstock Bookmark!! I masked off the Bottom of the Bookmark and placed the NEW NEW Music Notes Stencil over the Top of the Bookmark and Inked with some Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink!! I LOVE the tone-on-tone Design!!

Then I Stamped and Embossed the NEW Newton's Mix Tape Image using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and Embossed with WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! Then I colored the Image with Copic Markers!!
Brown: E40, E43 & E47 Pink: R22 Grey: N0, N3 & N6
Turquoise: BG10, BG45 & BG49 Purple: V00, V09 & V15
Then I Die Cut the Image out using the coordinating NEW Newton’s Mix Tape Die Set!! I adhered the Image to the Bookmark and then added some Trinity Stamps Rhinestones for some added Sparkle!!

I created some FUN Tassels using some Embroidery Thread and then I attached them to the top of the Bookmark using a Swiveling Clasp!! I LOVE how this turned out and I hope it INSPIRES you to create some RAD Bookmarks too!!

Pin It

HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!!

Welcome to Release Week for the Newton's Nook Designs ~ Retro Party Release!! Today I'm sharing a SWEET Heart Shaped Card using several of the NEW Products being revealed today!! Here’s a list of the NEW Products that’ll be available on Friday March 20th, 2026!! NEW Newton’s Mix Tape Stamp Set + coordinating NEW Newton’s Mix Tape Die Set, NEW Puppy Mix Tape Stamp Set + coordinating NEW Puppy’s Mix Tape Die Set, NEW Party On! stamp Set, NEW Music Notes Stencil, NEW Retro Vibes Stencil Set, NEW Retro Mix Toner Card Fronts and NEW Solid Black Toner Card Fronts!!

SQUEAL!! How FUN is this NEW Retro Party Collection!! I just ADORE EVERYTHING about it and can't wait to share ALL of the Projects I've made using everything!! Let's get Started!!

I Started by Foiling the NEW Retro Mix Toner Card Front with some Deco Foil in Mystic Rainbow using my Gina K. Designs FUSE Machine!!

I wanted to use the Negative Foil Sheet for my Design so I Foiled it to a Sheet of the NEW Solid Black Toner Card Fronts and ran it through my Gina K Designs FUSE Machine!! Then I’m left with the Negative Design!!

You could Foil it again with another Color, but I chose to keep the Black for this Design!! I just LOVE that you can use the NEGATIVE Foil though, so please don’t throw it away!! You can literally continue to create designs with just the Negative Foil for as long as you want!!

It’s so FUN and AWESOME, plus there’s NEVER any waste!! Then I also Foiled a Sheet of the NEW Solid Black Toner Card Fronts in Deco Foil Turquoise!!

I then took the Heart Frames Die Set and I Die Cut the Base from a Sheet of the NEW Retro Mix Toner Card Fronts just using the Black and White Pattern!! I LOVE that you DON’T have to foil them and they can be used as is too!! Literally, there are so many FUN ways to use them!! Then I used the other Heart Frames Die Set Dies to Die Cut the other Pieces!! I Adhered them together!!

To create a Layered Card and I LOVE the way it turned out!! Next I Stamped and Embossed the Flag that I Die Cut from some Vellum using the Frames and Flags Die Set with the Happy Birthday Sentiment from the NEW Party On! Stamp Set using WoW Clear Embossing Ink and Embossing with WoW Bright White Embossing Powder!! Then I adhered it to the Card Front using some Liquid Adhesive!!

Then I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment on the inside of the Card also using a Sentiment from the NEW Party On! Stamp Set!! I stamped most of it with Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and then used Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink for the rest of the sentiment after Masking it!! Then I Embossed the entire Sentiment with some WoW Neutral Ultra Shimmer Embossing Powder and I LOVE the Iridescent Sparkle!!

I Hope this INSPIRES you to use some of you FAVORITE Deco Foils and create some Retro Shaped Birthday Cards for your needs!! They are so FUN!!
