Newton’s Nook Winter Release – Day 1

Card tutorial 2 Minutes

Hello everyone!!! It’s time for another fabulous Newton’s Nook reveal week! We’re celebrating the winter release and I’m really excited about all of it! There’s snow everywhere and I know you’re going to love it all! Today we’re sharing:

Snowman Greetings

I just love this set with that cute snowman holding his sign and how all the sentiments fit perfectly inside it! It’s genius and so much fun to color and create with.

For my card today, I colored stamped my snowman and then added the sentiment to the sign. I colored him with my copics and used the coordinating dies to cut him out. I die cut the fancy edge tag from green cardstock and iridescent vellum and popped my snowman up with foam squares on the vellum. I threaded some ribbons through the tag holes and tied them together with twine.

For my background, I used red and green dye inks and blending brushes over the plaid stencil. Then I put the snowfall stencil over that and used texture paste. Once it was dry I die cut it with the Frames & Flags scalloped rectangle.

The rectangle is popped up on a red card base and the tag is popped up on that. Then I moved on to finishing touches. There’s a lot going on but I like to add shimmer and shine where I can so I put glossy accents on the snowman’s eyes, carrot nose, heart and buttons. I used black glaze pen on the bird’s eye and glossy accents on his beak. Then I took unicorn Stickles to the snowman’s hat and scarf randomly.
