Newton's Nook Designs February Release - Tweet Talk

it's day 2 of the february release for newton's nook! i'm so excited! i LOVE this mini set!


i think this set is so FUN and versatile! and those little bird and house images are perfect for cards, scrapbooking, and any PL type albums!! and the good news is they'll be available for purchase february 21st here! :)

you know me, i made two cards! my first card is a super sweet card! :) i was channeling my innter valentine when i made it, i think!! lots of pinks and reds! :)


all of the images were paper pieced, and those cute little birds were popped up for dimension! i was totally inspired by this pink woodgrain paper and knew i had to use it with this set! 


and just a few kraft colored sequins finished it off!

my second card is so fun, too!! LOVE it!!


i stamped the houses in various shades of grey papers and then used some copics to add some shading here and there to them! then the bird's house was paper pieced brightly!! and i even added some shading with my copics too! 


then i popped it up for dimension and enclosed it in a vellum frame with a sweet stamped bow on it! :)
i just LOVE these colors together, and it really feels like a fun card! :)

  6. Oh, my goodness!!! I LOVE the card done in pink!!! I would never have thought to do that....but it is so sweet and lovely. Love your creativity with the vellum on the second one, too. I thought you had pieced all your houses, until I read you used Copics on the gray ones. Fantastic cards!!!

  10. the first card is plain and simple but very pretty. Love the sequins sprinkled throughout. The second card is amazing. Stamping on different shades of grey makes the colored house stand out. the added shading on the grey houses really make them pop also. Great idea.
