Newton’s Nook Designs February ’18 Release

Newton’s Nook Designs February Release – Woof Pack

February 15, 2018 Jentimko 27 Comments

Well, it is the last day of the February Release from Newton’s Nook Designs. It has been a great week and I’m super excited to share our final set, Woof Pack.

You had to know that Newton’s Nook would not leave out all you dog people out there. After yesterday’s Company of Cats it is so awesome to have a companion set for dogs. I thought it would be fun to make a few little “windows” for the dogs. I stamped the big background a couple of times and then chose a few of the sweet faces to highlight (other than the German Shepard, I chose pretty randomly….no slights intended, lol…I have a soft spot for Shepards after having one for 12 years). I colored using my Zig Clean Color Markers and then added some frames that were cut with stitched circle dies. The Pawprints stencil was a wonderful “go with” product for the dogs and I added that with embossing paste on Fog Gray card stock.

I thought you might like to see a list of all the breeds that are in the stamp image. Jennifer Jackson was kind enough to provide this and it was super helpful in my coloring.

Left to Right:
Top row: Bulldog, Chihuahua, Boxer, Jack Russell Terrier
Second row: Poodle, Dachshund, Beagle, Basset Hound
Third row: Cocker Spaniel, Yorkshire Terrier, Boston Terrier
Corgi squeezed in between the rows
Bottom row: German Shepherd, Saint Bernard, Pug, Labrador Retriever

This week has been wonderful and I’m always so humbled by the kind comments left for me. Thank you all for your encouragement and kindness. And now, one more chance to win!

Newton’s Nook Designs February Release – Company of Cats

February 14, 2018 Jentimko 30 Comments

Happy day 3 of the February Release from Newton’s Nook Designs. I have such a treat for you today. A new stamp set called Company of Cats that you are sure to adore! (If you are looking for my Freshly Made Sketches post for today, just scroll down a bit)

I have to admit that I actually did laugh out loud when I read this sentiment for my card. So many cat people already know how true this is!! I could not help but think that it would be fun to create a card starting with just one kitty and then revealing the rest. So a pop-up card was born. I masked, stamped and colored this cutie with Copics and then added the yellow with Distress Ink.

I stamped the whole image again and then colored kitties of every kind. I fussy cut them out and made a pop up feature. And then I added the rest of the sentiment. Isn’t it just perfect??!!! I love it!

Newton’s Nook Designs February Release – Bitty Bunnies

February 13, 2018 Jentimko 22 Comments

Welcome back for day 2 of the February Release from Newton’s Nook Designs. Today I have a little cuteness overload for you. I mean really, who can resist Bitty Bunnies?!

I really wanted to put the focus on this sweet little bunny but still have some neutral details to add to the card. I started by coloring the bunny with my Copics and knew he would be super cute against this notecard (from SU’s Sale-a-bration). I liked how the envelope had the light brown with speckles so I colored the bunny to coordinate, including the speckles. I used a new embossing folder with the basket weave which is a nod to an Easter basket but I like that this doesn’t have to be an Easter card. The Flags and Frames Dies were used for the stitched details and for the banner. The bunnies, butterflies and flowers in this set all work to give you lovely little scene choices and you are sure to love coloring them.

Make sure you hop over to see all the bunny cards from our amazing DT at NND! Such inspiration! Now on to everyone’s favorite part of release week. A chance to win!!

Newton’s Nook Designs February Release – Newton’s Easter Basket

February 12, 2018 Jentimko 28 Comments

Welcome to day 1 of the February Release from Newton’s Nook Designs. This month’s reveals are going to wow you, as usual. Such variety and fun! Today we have an adorable set called Newton’s Easter Basket (with coordinating dies) along with a new stencil called Cloudy Sky.

I love that we get to start off with our favorite kitty this month! I chose the image with all the eggs but you are going to love the Newton “bunny” and Newton in the egg too. Such fun! I started by using the new Cloudy Sky stencil with Versamark ink and clear embossing powder. I just applied the ink straight from the pad. A little less precise but that was the look I was going for….just like real clouds! The embossed areas resist the watercoloring. I used Distress Ink in Peacock Feathers for the sky. I created the grass using Mowed Lawn and cut the edge with the Land Borders Dies. Then the real fun started! I stamped Newton, a few extra eggs and an extra bird. Using more Distress Inks I chose bright and happy colors and got to coloring. The coordinating dies make cutting out the elements easy. I added two extra eggs for dimension and the little bird seemed perfect on Newton’s tail. I pulled out my white gel pen to add a little more detail to finish.

Isn’t this a great day 1? Yep, I knew you would think so. Now on to everyone’s favorite part of release week. A chance to win!!
