Newton's Nook Challenge

Newton's Nook FB Design and Share  

Hello and welcome.  Today starts a new challenge over at Pammie's Inky Pinkies and this week we're being sponsored by Newton's Nook.  I would like to thank them for their sponsorship this week.  My card today is featuring a couple of their retired sets: Newton's Seashell and Palm Paradise.

I started out by stamping the palm trees using memento desert sand, cottage ivy and rich cocoa onto Hammermill white card stock.  Next, I stamped the sun and birds/saying using memento tuxedo black ink before coloring the cat with shell using copics before adding the sand using desert sand ink directly on the card stock.  I then added the sun using memento cantaloupe and tangelo inks before stamping the saying and birds in memento tuxedo black.  Taking my blending brushes, I blended Tim Holtz broken china, tumbled glass and brushed corduroy distress inks before highlighting the sun and water using diamond/waterfall ice stickles.  I'm really happy with how this turned out.

On The Road Again

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made using several Conjurer of Dreams digital images.  I made this collage a little over a month ago using Mice Fliers, Model T, Vintage Road Map and a freebie from the Facebook Inspiration group.  The phrase was added by me using Photoshop© and once I had printed it out, the combined image sat until I could use it.  I kept the card fairly simple since I wanted the main image to stand out on it's own.  The only embellishments were copper brads, copper cord and copper sequins. I'm really happy with how it turned out.

A Moment In Time

 

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made for the Ghost of a Time challenge over in the Conjurer of Dreams Facebook Inspiration group.   My card today is using the Edwardian Bride Groom Ghost Dancers, Victorian Dancing Ghost Couple and the Edwardian Graveyard digital stamps.

After I combined the graveyard, and all of the ghost couples I wanted, I printed the finished image out on Neenah white card stock before layering and adding some black brads.  As an afterthought, I distressed the last layer using my paper distresser.  I then dug through my stash and found a couple of old Making Memories© word plate eyelets and added those using my crop-a-dile before adhering to my card base using pop dots.  Taking a sponge, I lightly sponged bermuda bay ink along the edges of the card before adding some black lace I've had in my stash for years.  The final touches were adding some Meraki Sparkle Midnight Shimmer Illusion gems and diamond ice stickles to highlight the moonlight.  I'm really happy with how this turned out.

Stained Glass Haunted House

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made using one of the freebies in the Conjurer of Dreams Facebook Inspiration group.  I just LOVE Conjurer of Dreams stained glass images.  They remind me so much of my uncle Dave growing up.  He used to make a lot of stained glass windows, gifts, etc.  I miss him.  

 

I started out by printing the image twice - once at 5x7, to use as designer paper, and once at 3.5x5.   After trimming down the smaller image, I layered it and added some faux brads.  Digging through my stash of Halloween stuff, I pulled out some black/orange ribbon and a Halloween Jolee's sticker I've had for who knows how long.  After adding the ribbon, and sticker, I pulled out my smaller scraps and punched out several flowers and ferns before running the ferns through the paper crimper.  I then assembled my floral sprays along the top of the image panel using Ranger glossy accents.  The final touch was adding black diamond and orange slice ice stickles to the flower centers.

A Little Steampunk ATC

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share a quick ATC made using one of the freebies on the Conjurer of Dreams blog combined with the Rustic Fall digital set.

After combining the images in Photoshop©, I printed out my finished image on Neenah white card stock before layering on scrap card stock.  Taking my old Marvy and Martha Stewart punches, and the small card stock scraps still on my desk, I punched out some leaves/flowers before dipping in walnut stain ink then adding them to my ATC.  The finishing touches were bling in two of the corners and copper ice stickles in the flower centers.

Imagine

 

Hello and welcome.  Today I'd like to share with you a card made for the pumpkin Anniversary challenge in the Conjurer of Dreams Facebook group.  Since, I'm still dealing with a migraine, I kept my card pretty simple.

After printing the Pumpkin Fairy House on Neenah white card stock, I layered it and added some faux brads.  Once it was adhered to my card base, I added the IMAGINE saying, from Dollar Tree©, using Ranger glossy accents to make sure the word would stay put.  After adding a few diamond ice stickles, to give the scene more of a magical feeling, my card was finished.  I'm really happy with how this turned out.

It's A Anniversary Party!!

 

Hello and welcome.  Today starts the week long anniversary celebration for Conjurer of Dreams in our Facebook Inspiration Group.  There will be daily challenges and prizes.  All the fun starts today right here.

 

 

A Little Graveyard Dancing

 

Hello and welcome.  I'd like to share with you a card I made using the Old West Graveyard and Old West Dancing Ghost Couple from Conjurer of Dreams.  When I'm dealing with a bad migraine, I love pre-colored images and Conjurer of Dreams has some fabulous ones.  Just print them out and assemble when I can.  Whenever I use the ghost images, I keep hearing the Haunted Mansion ballroom with the music "grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize".

After combining the images in Photoshop©, I added my own saying before printing on to Neenah white card stock then layered and added brads.  Once I had distressed the edges of one of the layers, I adhered it to my card base using glue dots before adding some black/vanilla gingham ribbon I've had for who knows how long.  Taking my Martha Stewart punches, paper crimper and brown/black scraps, I punched out enough elements to make my own floral spray again.  After assembling the elements, I added diamond (moon) and platinum ice stickles to finish it off.  I'm pretty happy with how my card turned out.  That's one less Halloween card I need to make.
