Newton’s Nook – July Release Reveals Day 4

Okay, here we are…the final day of release reveals! We’ve got one more stamp and die set to share with you before we let you loose to shop these awesome new goodies and start crafting your own creations!

Birthday Postage Sampler stamps and dies

This is a really fun staple set to have in your stash whether you like to create with the postage stamps or not. These images are fun and perfect for celebration themed crafting. I have two cards to share with you today.

For this card, I stamped and colored my images, die cutting them before adding them to the Postage Stamp layout die. I also ink blended and stenciled the inserts of each stamp before decorating them with the colored images and postage details. I finished the design off with the Happy Birthday sentiment die being cut from the same paper as my background to tie it all together.

I wasn’t done playing with these birthday postage stamps or the new card layout dies so I have one more card for you today.

It’s bright and fun and ready to party! For this card, I cut the card layout die from white cardstock and used distress oxide sprays to color the inserts. I used liquid glue to adhere the frame and inserts to a card base.

Then I added my fun postage stamps and die cut sentiment directly to that. In the end I liked the idea of the postage stamps stopping at the layout frame instead of the card edge so I used a craft knife to carefully cut them away and it worked pretty well!

To finish things off I added some glossy accents and stardust Stickles to the stamp images. It goes well with the glitter cardstock sentiment!
