Newton's Nook Design - Autumn Greetings

Hello everyone!

I am here with Newton's Nook Designs featuring the Leaf Splendor Stamp Set with the Coordinating Die Set. I love this set; the leaves can be used for so many different designs. This set was released this month, you can find a lot of inspiration on the Newton's Nook Designs blog.

My card is an A2 card. I started with water coloring with distress inks on water paper (for the reddish and yellowish leaves) and for the green leaves I took some watercolor paper and sprayed with Tim Holtz mica sprays. I then stamped the leaves from the Leaf Splendor Stamp Set using VersaFine Pinecone ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder and die cut them.

The scalloped layer is die cut from NND Frames & Flags Die Set.  I cut and ink blended the top layer and added the leaves.  I used some foam squares to pop most of the leaves up.  

 

I stamped, heat embossed the sentiment from the Leaf Splendor Stamp Set and die cut with the Coordinating Die.  To finish off the card, I splattered the card with gold ink.

Thank you so much for stopping by, to see lots of inspiration using Newton's Nook Designs stamps and dies, please visit their blog.

GINA K. DESIGNS SEPTEMBER 2021 RELEASE

Hello everyone!

I am here sharing some cards I created using the NEWLY release products from the September 2021 release by Gina K. Designs! I always say this is my best release ever, but I really think this one is. I love Christmas and I love Fall, this release has a little of both. I am using the "Forever" stamp set illustrated by Lisa Hetrick and "Winter Wonderland" illustrated by Beth Silaika. You can see more inspiration from the full release on the Gina K. Designs & StampTV Friends Facebook page. To see the full release, you can go HERE under the What's New section.

Here are my cards for your inspiration:

The next two cards are created using the "Forever" stamp set illustrated by Lisa Hetrick.

• Use the wreath builder to create my card.  The card measures 4 1/4 x 4 1/4.  
• Stamped the greenery from the Forever stamp set in GKD Jelly Bean Green and the acorns in GKD Dark Chocolate. 
• Stamp sentiment "forever" and the "grateful" is a die from the stencil bundle Fluttering Fall.

My second card using the Forever Stamp set:

• A2 card measuring 4 1/4 x 5 1/5
• Used GKD Master Layouts 2 to cut layers
• Stamped the leaves randomly on my card using GKD inks Plum Punch, Faded Brick, Jelly Bean Green, and Honey Mustard.  The acorns stamped with GKD Dark Chocolate.
• Stamped the sentiment from the the "Forever" stamp set and die cut it with a banner from GKD Master Layouts 2.

My next two cards I created using the Winter Wonderland illustrated by Beth Silaika.

• Used the GKD Master Layout 1 to cut the top layer, I used the technique Gina uses by taking a mini ink cube and run it down the card, alternating from top to bottom.  I used GKD ink Soft Stone.
• I then die cut the window from GKD Master Layout 5.
• Inked blended the background using GKD inks Sea Glass, Tranquil Teal and In the Navy.  
• Stamped the tree from the Winter Wonderland stamp set and the bird onto the ink blended panel.
• Splattered some GKD White Pigment ink to look like snow.
• Stamped the poinsettia from the Winter Wonderland stamp set.
• Stamped the sentiment from the Winter Wonderland stamp set and assembled the card.  

My second card using Winter Wonderland illustrated by Beth Silaika.

• Mini slimline card measuring 6 1/2 x 6 1/4 scored at 3 1/4 on the 6 1/2 side.
• The top layers are cut using GKD Master Layouts 7.
• Inked blended the background with Sea Glass.  
• Stamped the snowflakes using GKD Sea Glass ink from the Winter Wonderland stamp set.
• Cut the snow hills from GKD Master Layouts 6 and inked with GKD Soft Stone. 
• Stamped the tree and bird onto the panel from the Winter Wonderland stamp set.
• Stamped the snowman, added the buttons, eyes, mouth and nose.  Stamped the hat and die cut them and used foam squares to pop him up onto the card.
• Finished the card off by adding the sentiment from the Winter Wonderland stamp set.

Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope I have inspired you!

RETRO RUBBER CHALLENGE BLOG #167 - Sketch

Hello everyone!

I am here with Retro Rubber Challenge blog and we have a new challenge, which is a sketch. I love sketch challenges. I hope you enjoy creating something with this sketch. If you have not joined our challenges before, the rules are very simple, just use a stamp older than a year and you must include the age (or approximate age) of the stamp in your blog post. I cannot wait to see you take on it.

Here is my take on the sketch challenge. The stamp set I am using is created by Penny Black called Harvest Wishes. It was released in September 2020.

My card is an A2 card, I used some design paper from my stash, I stamped the bold image and colored it with copics, then stamped and fuzzy cut the sentiment.  I finished off the card by adding enamel dots from my stash.

Are you ready to play along? Be sure to stop over on the Retro Rubber Challenge blog to get some more inspiration! Thank you for stopping by, you have until March 20th to join the fun!
