Here’s how I made it:

stamp the images on smooth white card stock and die-cut the images using the coordinating dies.
stamp the balloon from the Fabulous Frenchies stamp set and die-cut with the coordinating die.
Ink up an A2 size piece of Bristol smooth white card stock with distress oxide inks. I used Festive Berries and Candied Apple.
die-cut the grass with green patterned paper using the grass die from the Land Border Die set by Newton’s Nook.
die-cut the Picket Fence and the Speech Bubble border using the Speech Bubble die set with some white card stock.
ink up some Bristol smooth white card stock with some Tumbled glass distress oxide ink. Use the “birthday wishes” die to die-cut the sentiment.
use some white paint and smoosh them onto an acrylic block and splatter white paint all over the inked up background.
assemble the card.

Here’s a closer look:

I love, love, love this new stamp set. I also used my Copic multi-liner pen to draw some eyelashes to the piggies. I think they look cuter with eyelashes. I finished my design by adding glossy accents to the balloon. Here’s another look:

March 11, 2019March 11, 2019 | marialrussell

For the first day of the reveals, we are showcasing the following products:

NNDMAR19_NewtonsBirthdayTrio — NEWTON’S BIRTHDAY TRIO

NNDMAR19_Paw-someBirthday — PAW-SOME BIRTHDAY

NNDMAR19_BalloonsStencil — BALLOONS STENCIL

For my first project, here’s how I made the card:

stamp the images on smooth white card stock and die-cut using the coordinating dies.
stamp the balloon from the Fabulous Frenchies stamp set and die-cut with the coordinating die.
Ink up an A2 size piece of Bristol smooth white card stock with distress oxide inks.
die-cut the grass with green patterned paper using the grass die from the Land Border Die set by Newton’s Nook.
Die-cut the “HAPPY” with some white card stock using the Essential Alphabets die set. Color the pieces using Copic markers.

To finish my design, I put glossy accents on the birthday balloon and added a heart enamel on the cat with Nuvo liquid adhesive. Here’s a closer look:

I really LOVE the Newton’s Birthday Trio die! It cuts all the inside pieces between the cats and the speech bubbles. Here’s another look:

For my second project, I used the Paw-some birthday stamp set and coordinating dies, with the Essential Alphabet die-set.

Here’s how I made this card:

stamp and color the image from the Paw-some Birthday stamp set with Copic markers (or any coloring medium of your choice).
die-cut the image using the Paw-some Birthday die.
die-cut the “BIRTHDAY” letters using the Essential Alphabet die set.
cut some strips from patterned paper.
assemble the card.

Here’s a closer look:

I LOVE that Newton’s Nook Designs make their dies to cut the spaces between the images. This one cuts out the spaces between the dog and the presents. I also LOVE that the dies are pretty inexpensive. I think this is another must-have!
