Newton's Nook Designs February Release - Woof Pack Stamp Set

wow! and just like that, we're on the last day of Newton's Nook Designs February release!

and oh my gosh you guys...this release is so completely amazing! I can't wait for you to fall in love with these pups like me!
today we're focusing on the Woof Pack Stamp Set!

you can totally create a project life type spread, gift tags and, of course, cards! all of the new sets will be available for purchase on February 16th, right here!

here's my first card:

eeeeee!

Ok, so I stamped the whole image in a light grey Ink, twice. I made the first stamped image my card base, and then used the second one to die cut out the heart using the Darling Hearts Die set, and selectively color in the three pups!!

(this card is for my mom to give to her besties, and TWO of these dogs I colored look JUST LIKE her friends' dogs! amazing!)

I popped up the heart and then framed the whole card with the edge of the Frames and Flags large die! I had added color to it by watercoloring with Distress Oxides in rainbow shades! then I heat embossed the sentiment in black on top of the image! so fun!

my second card uses a bunch of the images that are fussy cut out in a big cluster!

aw, I just love those pups!

everything was colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. once the image was fussy cut out, I popped it up with foam tape.

the background was created using the Pawprints stencil and white embossing paste. after I spread the paste and lifted the stencil, I shook embossing glitter on top and let it all dry. once it was dry, I used my heat gun to melt the powder. LOVE the texture and glitter it adds!

today we're focusing on the Company of Cats Stamp Set!

here's my first card:

I used just a partial little swoop of the image to make a clean and simple card! I stamped the image and then used the Land Border Dies to cut out the fun shape!

i colored in the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then added some pink cheeks and white dots...because I literally can't stop myself! lol!

I seriously LOVE the different personalities of these cats! they're so adorable!

for my second card, I also used a partial part of the whole stamp image:

eeeek! love how different these two cards are with the same large image set!

I used the top two rows of cats and fussy cut them out!

Then for the bottom half of the card, I ink blended with Distress Inks in Blueprint Sketch, Peacock Feathers and Seedless Preserves.

I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed it on the bottom, and love how it pops!

good morning!

today we're continuing the fun with day 2 of Newton's Nook Designs February release!

and oh my gosh you guys...this release is so completely amazing! these bunnies are SO sweet and adorable, and I can't wait for you all to see it, too!
today we're focusing on Bitty Bunnies Stamp Set + coordinating Die
you can totally create a project life type spread, gift tags and, of course, cards! all of the new sets will be available for purchase on February 16th, right here!

here's my first card:

love.it!

ha!

I colored the same bunny image 2 times and then fussy cut them out. they were colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then i added some details with my white gel pen!

I used the Land Borders die set to create the grassy hills, and then the Starfield Stencil to add texture to the sky!

all of the backgrounds were created with a mix of watercolor using Distress Inks and Distress Oxides. for the grass I used Cracked Pistachio, Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover. for the sky, I used Picked Raspberry and Squeezed Lemonade.
then I used some white embossing paste on top of the sky for some starry texture!

my second card uses the sweetest little bunny image ever!

I started by using the **new** Cloud Sky Stencil and some Distress Inks to create the background! first, I did a little light ink blending in Peacock Feathers and Cracked Pistachio, then went back over it with the same colors, darker. I also added some white details to the clouds!

those sweet butterflies were finished by adding some glitter to their wings! they're so cute!

here's my first card:

clean, simple and pops of color and texture! it's so me!

i colored in the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, and the used the coordinating dies to cut it out!

I started with a rainbow theme from left to right!

it's hard to tell, but I also used the new cloud stencil to create some white on white texture! it looks soooo sweet in real life!!

then I finished off the card with some white pen details and a heat embossed sentiment! fun!!

my second card also has a hint of rainbow...

love these sweet, sweet images against the yellow! I used Distress Inks in Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade to blend the background, then splattered on lots of water!
