Hello everyone! I’m back today for Newton’s Nook sharing a cute Halloween card, showcasing the Newton’s Costume Party stamp set and dies, the Creepy Cameos stamp set and the Fall-ing For You stamp set.
Here’s my card:
Here’s my process video:
I hope you like my card and process video. Have an amazing day!
I finally made another card for my third and final entry for the 2017 Card Design Superstar. The card that you see below is my entry for the “Coloring Virtuoso” category. I love MFT Stamps and for today’s card, I am showcasing a lot of these stamps and dies that I have been collecting over the years. The products I used will be listed below, and they are all available at www.mftstamps.com.
I started out by stamping my images from the Our Story stamp set, with the Make Yourself At Home stamp set on white card stock with the MFT Stamps Black Licorice Hybrid Ink. I thought these two stamp sets would be the perfect pair to create my card. I colored the images in with my Copic markers. I have always loved coloring with my Copic markers! I die-cut the images with the coordinating dies.
I wanted to give my little girl a nice starry, colorful window background so I used a combination of different inks to blend the colors on smooth white card stock. I used the Die-namics Starry Circle to die-cut the background. I also used the same die to die-cut my card front. I wanted to inlay all of my die-cut elements on the card for my scene. For the “flooring”, I dry-embossed my white card stock and die-cut it using the Die-namics Stitched Basic Edges 2.

The MFT 2017 Card Design Superstar is here and I am super excited to participate. The card that you see below is my entry for the “Innovation Master” category. I have always loved MFT Stamps and for today’s card, I am showcasing a lot of these stamps and dies. The products I used will be listed below, and they are all available at www.mftstamps.com.
I started out by stamping my images on white card stock with the MFT Stamps Black Licorice Hybrid Ink and colored the images in with my Copic markers. I thought the new Happy Haunting stamp set would be the perfect pair with the Frightful Friends stamp set (released by MFT Stamps last year). I die-cut the images with the coordinating dies.
I die-cut all of the elements I needed for my scene. For the frame, I used the Die-namics Blueprints No. 32, the Die-namics Stitched Clouds Edges, and the Die-namics Birch Trees.
I die-cut an A2 size Vellum card stock because I wanted to create a see-through scene so that I can also use this card to display on my Halloween mantle. I wanted to use an LED tea-light to give a spooky glow behind Mr. and Mrs. Frankenstein. I love how this card turned out.
Here’s the card without the LED tea-light behind it.
Here’s the card with the LED Tea-Light on! Don’t you just love the moon peaking from behind the clouds and birch trees?
Here’s a close-up of the card with the LED Tea-light. It looks so good on my Halloween mantle display.

I am so excited to share with you today’s post! It is that time of the year again. Falling leaves, sweater weather (at least for some of you), pumpkin spice, and the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop! I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Amy Tsuruta and the rest of her team responsible for facilitating this great hop! I don’t know how you guys do it but you all rock!
Today I made a card showcasing products from the #KatScrappiness shop (www.katscrappiness.com). THERE IS A SPECIAL COUPON CODE at the shop from September 15th to September 22nd only, so hurry and shop for all the crafty products you’ve always wanted (use coupon code: “COFFEEHOP” for 15% off your order). THERE IS ALSO A GIVEAWAY! Kat is a super sponsor and is giving away a $25 gift card from her shop. Please check all of the details for the giveaway on the www.coffeelovingcardmakers.com.
Here’s my card today and I also have a process video for you if you’d like to see how I made the card. I didn’t have the dies for this stamp set so I will also show you how I cut the image, using my Brother Scan N Cut 2. I love this machine and even though it is quite the investment, it will save you money because you don’t really have to buy coordinating dies anymore. [The part where I was showing you how I used the ScanNCut on the video was a bit shaky so I apologize for that. It was hard to film and do the cutting at the same time. I will be better next time] .
And here’s my process video. I hope you like my card. The supplies I used are listed and linked below. Have a wonderful day!

I stamped my images on Neenah solar white card stock using my stamping platform with my Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored my images in with my Copic markers. I die-cut the images using the coordinating dies. I wanted to create a cute Halloween scene today and I used some cute patterned paper and dies I have from my stash. Here’s my card:

For today’s cards, I am showcasing the Beautiful Bones and Spooky Skeletons stamp sets and their coordinating dies.
I stamped my Spooky Skeleton images on 110 lb. black card stock using my stamping platform with versa mark ink and heat-embossed them with my white embossing powder. I die-cut the images with the coordinating dies. I wanted to create a little shaker card and use my Halloween sequins.
To finish my design I used some doodlebug google-eyes on the images. Here’s my first card:
For my second card, I stamped my beautiful bones stamp set on Neenah solar white card stock and using my versa mark ink, and colored them in with my Gansai Tambi Pearl Watercolor. I also used my Sakura gel pens to add more intense colors to the card. Since this stamp set is sort of related to the “Day of the Dead”, I wanted to add some floral images to my black background. I used an older stamp set by Newton’s Nook called Lovely Blooms, released last spring. I stamped them with versa mark ink and used different colors of embossing powder to heat-set it and make them pop. Isn’t it amazing that you can actually stretch your stamps using them for a different season? Here’s my card:
This “Beautiful Bones” and “Spooky Skeletons” stamp sets and coordinating dies will be available for purchase on Friday, September 15th, at 8:00 a.m. CST.

For today’s cards, I am showcasing the Creepy Cameos stamp set and its coordinating dies with the Cameo Frame Die. Wow! Aren’t these products just AMAZING?! The possibilities are endless using this set.
I stamped my images on Neenah solar white card stock using my stamping platform. I die-cut the images using the coordinating dies. I also die-cut the Came frame on black glittered card stock to make it stand-out a little and give it more dimension.
To finish the design, I stamped the sentiment using versa mark ink and heat set it with white embossing powder. Here’s my card:

It’s Newton’s Nook Designs‘ turn for #STAMPtember collaboration with Simon Says Stamp and this stamp and die set is so adorable! We are showcasing Loads of Thanks stamp set and its coordinating dies. This is limited-edition and is only available for purchase at Simon Says Stamp. Here’s what the set looks like:
I started out by stamping my images on Neenah Solar White card stock with my memento tuxedo black ink and colored my images in with Copic markers. I also used my Sakura white and black glazed pens to add more details to the images. I die-cut the images with the coordinating dies.
I die-cut my Strathmore Watercolor paper using my rectangle dies and created a sunset sky using my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I wanted to create a cute hillside scene for my little doxies so I decided to use my portrait stitched hillside and landscape stitched hillside backdrop dies. Here’s my card:
