For my first card I used a bunch of diecuts and layered them.  I watercolored an ombre effect on the circle.  Then stamped the cute bunch of hearts in my favorite gold ink (Delicata).  I was so proud I even dug out some old stickers from my stash! Who knows how old they are, i'm just glad I got to use them. 



For my additional card I used the cute little owl from the set. I mean how could you not LOVE that owl.  I added some cute fluffy clouds and some washi tape to create a scene for the owl.

Newton's Nook Design's January Release - Day 1

Welcome to Love A La Carte by Newton's Nook Designs!  You just don't know how much I just LOVE this new set!  There are adorable images with accompanying cute sentiments. Would you like to win Love A La Carte???  Details at the end of my post! 

For the first card, which is also featured on the Newton's Nook Designs Blog.  I colored the cutest little coffee cup with copic markers... really simple not much blending needed.  I then Layered it with some Vellum, which is really hot again and so fun to use!  


For my additional card. I had this CRAZY idea for a stack of cinnamon rolls!!! Who wouldn't love a stack of cinnamon rolls?? Right?  MMMmmmm......   So, I made a couple of masks of the cinnamon roll to help stack them to make one stamped image.  Well, while I assembled the card....my little helper Nash decided to run off with my stack of cinnamon buns.  Yep! He decided they looked so yummy that we wanted one for himself.  After all the time I had in that image, I ran with it and decided to tell all the Newton fans of my Kitty Helper who sometimes makes scrapping difficult! 


Check out the video below for a closer look!

Paper Smooches - Anything Goes!


Hey all!  I am here today with a card for Paper Smooches SPARKS challenge Anything Goes.  I just got my hands on the new camera set from Paper Smooches.  I decided to splatter a little Mr. Huey's  and use up some of my ever growing washi tape collection. 

I dug out some items I have been hoarding for a while!  The graph tag I got a while back from Tuesday Morning and the Silver heart was a gift from a friend. 

I colored the camera with Derwent Inktense Pencils and a water brush. I just LOVE that look! 




Happy Scrappin!

Newton's Nook Designs Inky Paws Challenge #5


I hope you all had a great time Hopping along with the Deck the Halls with Inky Paws Holiday Hop.  If you didn't you can still see all the wonderful creations here.  I decided to play along with the Inky Paws Sketch Challenge today and there is still time to play. 

I started off with a Kraft base and then got to stamping. That cute snow couple is colored with Inktense Pencils and a water brush on watercolor paper. Nothing fancy just some shading. I decided to with a more sweet colors than traditional holiday.  I really like the pink with grey combo.  



Just in case you couldn't tell I love my glitter tape! I cut some fish tale banners and used the pink tape around a white piece of card stock to make a frame.  Easy peasy! 

Materials:
Newton's Nook Designs Stamps - Frozen Friends
AC Glitter Tape
Inktense Pencils
Georgia Pacific White Cardstock
Misc Patterned Paper
Kraft Cardstock

Happy Stmapin!

Deck the Halls with Inky Paws Blog Hop!


Welcome to Deck the Halls with Inky Paws Blog Hop!   I am super excited to be apart of this amazing list of designers to show you some great holiday inspiration.  

You should of come here from Alice Wertz blog, if you didn't you can start from the beginning by going over to the Newton's Nook Designs Blog here


I have really been loving using the metallic foil tape from the hardware store.  You get it in the A/C duct isle.  It is used to tape sections of A/C duct together.  This tape it super fun to die cut and emboss! Perfect for the holidays. So I taped a piece of the foil tape on some card stock trimmed around it. Then ran it through my big shot with an embossing folder. I just love the effect of embossing folders.

I colored little Newton with some Stamp Markers from American Crafts.  Now this isn't what these markers are made for, but I love the texture they give when coloring an animal.



For some extra detail I cut some plastic bag that was lying around from doing some scrappy shopping. and glued it behind the box to flap over to mimic Tissue Paper.  You never know what you may recycle in your craft room!





Next on the hop is Kim Singdahlsen !  I can't wait to see what she created for the Inky Paws Hop.

I hope you enjoyed the hop so far and got some inspiration to get your Paws Inky!
