Fall Breeze, Autumn Leaves

 This card incorporates the Newton's Nook Autumn paper pad, their Frames and Flags die set, and the Autumn Newton stamp set. The image was colored with Prismacolor colored pencils. I love the colorful leaves in the fall, and where I live we really don't get much in the way of changing leaves, so this card represents my wish. I had to make Newton a Siamese this time to honor the cat I had growing up.

Newton's Color Challenge #170

 

This card is for the Newton's Nook Inky Paws Challenge #170. It's a color challenge, using the colors pistachio green, golden yellow, navy blue, and white. I used the stamp Newton's Birthday Balloons and some patterned papers I had in my stash. I colored the image with Copic markers and cut it out with the coordinating dies. I mounted Newton and the cloud on some thin foam squares and accented with navy Pops of Color.

Newton Loves Springtime!

 

Posting a day early because I won't be able to tomorrow. I was so honored to be chosen as a Designer's Favorite in the last Newtons's Nook Challenge #168, which was a sketch challenge. This card is for Newton's Nook's Challenge #169, which was a theme challenge and the theme is Think Spring. I chose a stamp of Newton surrounded by eggs as well as his bunny and chick friends. I used pink and polka dot paper, popped the image and sentiment up on some foam squares, and accented with some fun sequins.

Lucky to have friends (and cats)

 This card was created for the Newton's Nook Inky Paws Challenge #168, which was a sketch challenge and the sketch is below. I used some shamrock paper I had in my stash, a couple of shades of green paper and cardstock,  and I stamped Newton with his pot of gold in Superior black ink. I colored them with Copic markers and then fussy cut around them-one of the very few image stamps I don't have a die for. Then I stamped the sentiment and embossed it with white powder. I finally assembled the card, popping Newton and the sentiment circle up on some foam and tying the twine around the card. Now to mail it to one of my long time friends to brighten up her day!

Here's the sketch I interpreted for this challenge. I want to thank Newton's Nook for their biweekly challenges. I enjoy stretching myself to come up with something new for each challenge.
