Newton’s Nook – Newton Makes Plans Card Trio

Hey friends! I’m over on the Newton’s Nook blog today with a trio of cards featuring the sweet mini images from Newton Makes Plans. I absolutely adore this set and was so happy to finally ink it up.

I had a design in mind but when it came time to choose, I couldn’t choose just three images so I ended up with nine and made three cards to share today.

The design is the same for all of the cards. I chose a trio of images from Newton Makes Plans, that kind of told a mini story to me. I chose a stencil that went with that story and paired them together. I chose a background color of cardstock to cut from the largest Framework stencil and did tone-on-tone inking for the stencils. This card has the music stencil with a trio of Newton’s that must be world travelers.

I cut the smallest circle from Frames Squared three times for each card out of white cardstock and inked them up wtih the same ink used on the stenciling. There is a 1/4″ strip of white cardstock adhered to each stenciled panel and then the circles and images are each popped up with foam squares.

They guys are all ready for a party of some degree so I used the fun confetti stencil for this background. I tend to gravitate toward the sentiments in all of the Heartfelt and Roundabout stamp sets because they are so perfect for a huge variety of occasions. These all came from Heartfelt Meows which work perfect with all of those cute Newtons.

The finishing touches on each card are also different. Most have some sort of glossy accents or Stickles on the center image because they happened to fit perfectly. Each of the Newton noses has a little dot of glossy accents as well. Then I did add white gel pen highlights to the other images for fun.

Aren’t these guys just the cutest? Everyone enjoying their different hobbies! The background for this card uses the petite paw prints stencil to round out that adorable kitty feel. I just love the glossy accents on his glasses in the center of this one.
