Newton's Nook Designs and Xyron Inspiration Week!

This week Newton's Nook Designs and Xyron are partnering for a very awesome inspiration week! Each day there is fresh inspiration using Newton's Nook Designs products with Xyron adhesives on the NND blog and on the Xyron facebook page!

I'm so excited to be able to work Xyron as part of the Newton's Nook Design team, and I had SO MUCH FUN making my card!!

Looks simple enough, right?
I colored all of the images from Loveable Laundry with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then used the coordinating die to cut them out!

There is also a vellum heart using the Darling Hearts Die! 
I heat embossed the sentiment with white, onto black cardstock! Everything was adhered with the Xyron Mega Runner - and WOW! Love the applicator and the adhesive itself!! 

Now, things are going to get interesting!

That's right! I also decorated the inside...more onesies and those stars are from the awesome Newton Dreams of New York stamp set!
But guys...there's MORE:

YES!
Those onesies are on MAGNETS!!! You can switch out the one on the front! And when the recipent receives the card, they can use them as magnets on their fridge!! That's fun, right?!> The Magnet Tape from Xyron is SO thin, and the card is totally mailable!! It's thin, and SUPER lightweight!!! Love it!!

Are you as amazed as I am?! Ha!!

magnets are dino-mite!

i'm over on the newton's nook designs blog today! 

and today i'm sharing a cute project i made for my little menn!

we take lots of road trips - mostly to see my parents in FL and the boys do great! but sometimes they get a little car crazy! (and so do i!!) so i thought i would make something for them to play with while we were in the car!

and i thought the stamp set for this would be prehistoric pals!

it's a magnet/dry erase board!! and aren't those little dino's cute? :) and since it's also a dry erase board, the boys can color, draw and outline whatever else needs to be added to this scene!

i had to add googly eyes again since they were magnets and the boys would be handling them! :)

i fussy cut out all of the dinosaurs and then added a little bit of extra color to them for some fun! once that was done, i just used an old magnet i had, cut it to size and attached it to the pieces. :) 

here's a teeeeeny tiny video showing this in action (no sound!):

the clouds are just a punch, as is the grass! :)

so that's it! lots of (portable!!) fun for my little menn! :)

here's my biggest little mann playing it below - i had JUST finished it and he had to check it out! :)

enjoy!
