Newton's Nook Designs June Release - Day 2


Welcome back friends, followers & NND hoppers!  Today we are previewing an adorable fruit themed set that is perfect for so many occasions, 'Sweet Summer':


See what I mean about versatility?  I decide to give the cute watermelon slice a little love, since I never seem to have enough 'thank you' cards in my stash:




This watermelon card is so simple to make!  I simply cut two circles using my Spellbinders Nestabilities dies, the larger one in Glorious Green and the smaller one in Melon Mambo scored each in half and stacked them - easy peasy!  Then I stamped the cute watermelon slice (you do see the cute little heart Jennifer added, right?), colored it with my Copic markers, cut it out and attached it to the card base.  I added the sentiment and doodled in the watermelon seeds myself.  VOILA!  Okay, now my mouth is watering for fresh watermelon...

Newton's Nook Designs June Release - Day 1



Hello Friends & Followers!  Time for another great release from Newton's Nook Designs, WOO HOO!  Today we are previewing 'Chicken Scratches' a fun country set with lots of cute chicks:


I wanted to emboss that chicken wire pattern in silver EP but all my EP was already packed up for our move (which we will be in the middle of by the time you read this) so I opted for a CAS style card with a Mama hen and her brood of baby chicks:



(kinda reminded me of the Partridge Family - you have 'Come On Get Hap-py' playing in your head now, don't you?)  If I could make this card again I would have offset the last little chick who is looking down at the ground a bit more, so it looked like it was lagging behind.
