Newtons Nook – April Mini Release Reveals Day 1

Hello friends! Newton’s Nook is having a mini release this month with just 2 new dies…that you’re going to LOVE! We’re revealing one today and the other tomorrow, with an Instagram hop on release day! First up…

Lattice Die

Today I have a springy card to share with you using the Lattice die and the pretty Daffodils stamps and dies. My mother-in-law used to have a lattice fence dividing her yard and I always thought it was pretty with flowers along the bottom so that’s where I got my inspiration for this card.

I cut the lattice die from white cardstock and then used distress oxide sprays and distress spritz spray to add color and shimmer. Her lattice was bright white but I wanted to pull in the yellow for the daffodils.

I colored my images and used the coordinating dies to cut them out. Then I cut a banner from the A7 Frames die set and heat embossed my sentiment on that. I used liquid glue to adhere the stems of the daffodils in the lattice and then lined the back with foam strips and squares. I also added foam to the butterfly and sentiment strip.

Next, I cut a piece of this blue glitter cardstock I found in my stash to A2 size and glued it to a card base. I inked up the edges with a darker blue ink but it didn’t really take to this cardstock because I think it has a coating on it for the glitter. So I removed all the release paper from the back of the lattice panel and popped it in place. Then I added the sentiment strip and butterfly next.

For finishing touches I added glossy accents to the stamen on the daffodils an butterfly wings for a bit of shine with all the shimmer.
