Hello Newton’s Nook fans! Have you seen last week’s April release? What was your favorite? I am back today to share with you two farm-themed cards, showcasing the Oink stamp set and coordinating dies with the Moo stamp set and coordinating dies.
Here’s my first card:
I started out by stamping my images on Neenah solar white card stock and colored them in with Copic markers. I used the coordinating dies to die-cut the images. I inked up a Bristol smooth white card stock with some Broken China distress oxide inks to create the sky. I die-cut the rest of the images that I needed and assembled the card. Here’s a closer look:
I absolutely ADORE these little piggies. I don’t know about you but I think pigs are extremely cute. A crafty friend of mine has a pet pig and that pig is so smart it makes me want to have one as a pet.
For my second project, I did all those steps that I mentioned above. However for my grass hill and trees, I inked up my Neenah solar white card stock with some freshly cut grass ink using some make-up brushes. I really love how it turned out.
For my background, I inked up the background with Tumbled Glass and Spun Sugar distress oxide inks. I also used the aged mahogany distress oxide inks to add the colorful speckles. To create my clouds, I used the Cloudy Sky stencil by Newton’s Nook with some Peacock Feathers distress oxide ink. Here’s a closer look:
The sentiment was stamped using Aged Mahogany distress oxide ink and “note to self”, next time wait for it to dry before adhering it to the card base. I smudged the sentiment a little. I didn’t want all of my efforts to be wasted so I am keeping the card as it is. To finish the design, I used my Sakura white gel pen to add some dots and lines to the trees to give it a little dimension. I do LOVE how both cards turned out (with the exception of my little boo-boo!).
I hope you like my cards. The supplies I used are listed and linked below in case you are interested. Thank you for stopping by my blog today and happy crafting!

Here’s how I made my card:
stamp the images on some Neenah solar white card stock and color the images in with Copic markers. Die cut the images using the coordinating dies. I opted to color the cow with some dark brown Copic markers instead of the typical black to make it stand out.
cut an A2 size piece of Bristol smooth white and use distress oxide inks to ink up the background.
use a die from my stash to die-cut the colored background.
use some small dies to die-cut the trees with some patterned papers.
adhere this piece on an A2 size card base with liquid and foam adhesive.
die-cut the clouds silhouette using some clouds die from my stash.
adhere the clouds on the card.
