For our projects, the design team is showcasing the Newton Loves Boxes stamp set and coordinating die with Newton’s Donut stamp set and coordinating die. I love, love, love these two stamp sets!
I stamped the images on Neenah solar white card stock and colored them in with my Copic markers. I die-cut the images using the coordinating dies. I had planned on creating two Clean and Simple cards today. The images are so cute and I wanted these images to pop.
I dry-embossed two (2) A2 size card stocks with the Postage die from the Framework die set (revealed last Monday), with my Sizzix Premium Crease Pad. As I previously mentioned, I am really loving this dry-embossed look. I die-cut a little window from a wonky square die from my stash.
To finish my design, I stamped the stars from the Cosmic Newton stamp set on my foreground using a very light gray ink. These stars gave a subtle background but the main focus is still the image. Here’s my first card:
Don’t you just LOVE this image? I completely adore this! I have a Persian cat named Chloe and I often find her hidden inside a box with her tail sticking out! Haha! This is so cute!
I think this image is my favorite in the stamp set!
Here’s my second card:
I cannot get over how cute these images really are!
For my second project, I created the same embossed look with the Postage die from the Framework die set. I also die-cut two tags using the Fancy Edges Tag die set, and the bow from my favorite Pines and Holly die set. I adhered the pieces on my card base and finished the design by adding glossy accents to the sprinkles to make them pop. Here’s my card:
Isn’t this the best double-whammy kind of day? I absolutely adore these two stamp sets we revealed today! I think they are not only cute, but they are very unique!
The design is pretty busy but by using the neutral colored background and matching it with the tag and bow, it just worked perfectly!
Did you get inspired this week? I hope you love the reveals as much as we did showcasing each stamp set and dies! I’d love to know your favorites from the May release.

Oh I love the look of box Newton kitty being featured in all these cute little windows! And it is a clever design to use the tag die cuts with the little bow at the top holding them together for the donut card – it sort of enhances the ‘dangle effect’ if that makes sense, LOL! Thank you for the lovely inspiration!
