Newton’s Nook – Back to Basics Release Day 1

Hey friends! Did you see the release reveals on the Newton’s Nook blog yesterday? Well, just in case you missed it I’m going to summarize them and then jump into a card using one of the new die sets and paper pad! First up…

Frames & Tags die set

A2 Card Layout die

Basic Frames dies

Pastel Basics paper pad

Brights Basics paper pad

Newton’s Bright Birthday stamps and dies

Oh my word! Wasn’t that a lot of amazing??? It’s all so great and has been a blast to create with! Today I’m using the Frames & Flags dies with the Bright Basics paper pad.

I cut the frame from white cardstock and the largest tag from black cardstock. Then I stamped and colored my image from Newton’s Kite and used the coordinating die to cut him out. I stamped my sentiment part on the tag and part of a piece of cardstock I colored with the same color I used on the kite.

Next I chose paper from the Bright Basics paper pad and cut them down to A2 size. I die cut the green with the new zig zag rectangle in the Frames & Tags die set and popped it up with foam tape on the red polka dots. Then I glued the white frame to that and popped my image and sentiment tag up with foam squares.

For finishing touches today, I threaded black jute twine through the tag hole and added glossy accents to Newton’s nose and the kite tail.
