Hello Newton’s Nook Designs fans! I am back today to share with you a fun spring card, showcasing one of my favorite stamp set from the February release called Woodland Spring.
WOODLAND SPRING STAMP SET AND DIES
Here’s how I made my card:
stamp images on some smooth white card stock
color images with any coloring medium of your choice. I used Copic markers for mine because I love the vibrant colors.
die-cut the colored images with the coordinating dies.
use the handmade stencil made from the sky borders die set to create the background, using Antique Linen and Worn Lipstick distress oxide inks.
die-cut the small polaroids.
adhere the polaroids on the inked background with foam adhesive
add the critters (and flowers) inside each polaroid and adhere using liquid adhesive.
stamp the sentiment to finish the design.
Here’s my card:
This card is really simple, but I love how it turned out. The pastel-colored sky is so subtle yet it created this dreamy look for my critters to stand out. Here’s a little close-up:
I hope you like my card today. Please visit Newton’s Nook Designs to purchase the stamp set and dies that I used today. I have also listed and linked it below. Have a nice day and happy crafting!
Hello my crafty friends! I know by the time my post goes live, Valentine’s Day would have already passed. However, I’ve made this card for a girlfriend who needs a little cheering. For my card today, I am showcasing the Supercalifragistic stamp set with the Garden Fri-Dies.
Heres how I made the card:
Ink up a Bristol smooth white card stock using Squeezed Lemonade and Worn Lipstick distress oxide inks.
Spray water all over the inked up background with the distress sprayer. Use paper towel to dab it dry.
Use hearts stencil to add more texture to the background with the same distress oxide inks for a seamless look.
Stamp the sentiment using the Supercalifragilistic stamp set. (I LOVE THIS STAMP SET!)
Die cut the window using a die from my (or you can use sticker if you don’t have this die) and add the “ice cubes” and sequin mixes in the pouch.
Adhere the other die-cut elements to the colored background.
To finish the design, die cut the “LIME” on green card stock using the Garden Fri-Dies and adhered on top of the margarita glass using liquid glue.
I think adding the “lime” on the margarita glass using the Garden Fri-Dies just added a cute touch to the whole card design. Here’s a closer look:
I don’t know about you but looking at this card makes me want to go out with my girlfriends and guzzle down some margaritas on the rocks, don’t you? The Supercalifragilistic stamp set is a must-have for any stamper! Here’s another look:

cut the colored card stock and adhere on the card base. Also adhere a rainbow patterned paper at the bottom of the card base. Finish this piece with some black strip card stock.
I felt that the left side of the card was missing something so I added the pastel stars from Kat Scrappiness to adorn the card. I think it turned out great. Here’s a closer look:
This card is really clean and simple but I like it a lot. Here’s another look:
Here’s how I made my second project:

ink up this bristol smooth card stock with distress oxide inks.
wipe the embossed images with paper towel to make them white again.
die-cut the rest of the card stock to assemble the card.
This image is sooooo cute! I also LOVE that the coordinating die, die-cuts the middle space between the two dogs! It’s a definite must-have for sure. You can use this stamp set for any occasion and the possibilities are endless. Here’s a closer look of the puppies:

For the first day of the reveals, we are showcasing the following products:
LOADS OF BLOOMS STAMP SET & COORDINATING DIESFLOWER TRIO DIE SETBOLD BLOOMS STENCILBOKEH STENCIL SET
For my first project, here’s how I made the card:
stamp the images on smooth white card stock. The butterflies I added for my scene are from the Newton’s Birdbath stamp set.
color the image using Copic markers or any coloring medium of your choice.
die-cut the rest of the elements needed to create the scene.
ink up the background on Bristol smooth white card stock with distress oxide inks using the Sunscape stencil. Spray the background with water and dab it dry with a paper towel.
assemble the card on an A2 size white card base.
Finish the design by stamping the sentiment and add a pink heart.
I just love this image so much! It reminds me of those times back when I was a child and my sisters and I were riding our bicycles, gathering flowers around the area. Those were simple times that I will always cherish forever. Here’s a closer look:
I would never trade in those times where my friends and I just enjoyed being kids, riding our bikes, playing games and not wanting to come home when it’s starting to get dark because of dinner. I am certainly thankful we didn’t have smart phones and computer games back then.
For my second project, I used the Flower Trio die, Bokeh Stencil set and the Bold Blooms stencil. Here’s how I made the card:
Ink up some Bristol smooth white card stock using different pastel distress oxide inks with the Bokeh stencil set.
Die-cut the flowers using the Flower Trio Die.
Use a stamping mat and bone folder to shape the flowers and give it a little dimension. If you have a round stylus, it’s better.
Ink up some Bristol smooth white card stock using distress oxide inks and the bold blooms stencil. Spray water and dab it dry with some paper towel. Use clear sequins as shaker element.
die-cut the diagonal die coverplate and adhere acetate sheet. Add foam adhesive to create the shaker well and adhere on top of the background.
adhere the flowers and leaves on the card and finish the design by adding the script sentiment die.
Since I used clear sequins as my shaker element, the die-cut flowers really stood out on this card design. I also added the Crystal clear jewels in the middle of the flowers. Here’s a closer look:
I really LOVE how this card turned out. The Flower Trio die set is a must-have for sure. You can even decorate your Spring wreath using this die. The possibilities are endless! Here’s another look:

Die-cut the clouds twice using a clouds die.

This stamp set also makes me giggle because the unicorn’s hair is so frizzy, it reminds me of my big frizzy hair during summertime in Florida. I swear my hair gets so big, it’s the size of Texas! Thank God for flat irons and anti-frizz magical potions because without them, I would look like a cave woman! Here’s a closer look:
Fussy-cutting the patterned paper to paper-piece the robe made it look more realistic and added some nice touch to the overall card design. Can you also just admire the glitter on the unicorn’s hair? She is so stylish and is indeed magical AF! Haha! Here’s another look:

Good morning my crafty peeps! I am so excited to share with you today’s post. I am so pleased and honored to announce that I have joined the The Rabbit Hole Designs design team. Yay! Here’s the photo of the announcement the other day!
The Rabbit Hole Designs is a new stamp company. They have recently launched a couple of stamp sets and I ordered a few of them because I fell in love with the design. For my card below, I am showcasing the Caffeinated Cat 3×4 stamp set. When I saw this stamp, I knew I just had to have it. Honestly, what is not to love? I adore cats, I love coffee and I love being a mom! Okay to be honest I used to feel like this cat when my kids were little, haha! and I had a full-time job too! I don’t even know how I survived those days; I guess I had lots and lots of coffee!
Here’s how I made the card
Stamp the image on Neenah solar white card stock (or any card stock you have in stock) with alcohol friendly ink.
Color the image with alcohol markers (or any coloring medium of your choice).
Either fussy-cut or die-cut the image using an electronic die-cutting machine. For mine, I used my Scan N Cut 2.
Die-cut a piece of Neenah solar white card stock using the wood/floors dies and ink it up with gathered twigs distress oxide ink to make it look like wooden panels.
Cut another piece of white card stock and use embossing folder to create the “wallpaper”.
Adhere the floor, the moulding and the “wallpaper” on an A2 size card base. Cut the excess.
Die-cut the little decorative frame and little bows on some colored card stock and stamp the sentiment and image on both. Adhere the frames with liquid glue.
Adhere the Caffeinated Cat image (ahem, star of the show!) in the middle of the card with foam adhesive to give it dimension.
Add the heart embellishment on the coffee cup.
Add Sparkling clear jewels and bow on the decorative frame to finish the design.
Everything about this cat just makes me giggle! The tired look on her face, the bunny slippers and the robe! I think we can all relate. Here’s a closer look:
That cat wallpaper just added more cuteness to the whole design, don’t you agree? The mom cat looked tired but her house is spotless!
What do you think of my card? Does it make you want to have a cup of coffee? I hope you like my project today. The supplies I used are listed and linked below. Note: if you are looking to purchase the Cat Embossing folder, they will be available at Kat Scrappiness next week (she is restocking them).

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I hope I have given you some inspiration to create something beautiful. Have a wonderful day, and happy crafting!
