Make sure you scroll down to the bottom of this post to see the whole link list -- there are 16 awesome blogs for you to visit today! Plus you can comment for your chance to win a prize too! Details at the end of this post!

Bonus Stamp Release!

The blog hop starts here, with a cards featuring our BRAND NEW stamp set, just released today called Whispering Pines! This beautiful 4x6 tree set gives you the look of watercolor using your stamp and ink pad. These trees were watercolored by hand and then converted into stamps to give you that soft, imperfect painted feel. Try layering them and using different inks to create beautiful nature cards. And, because we couldn’t resist, we’ve added dog and cat silhouettes to add into your scenes!

Cards by Jennifer Jackson using Whispering PInes stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook

For my two cards I stamped the trees with green inks. For the left side card, I simply added some "snow" with light blue ink and the "let it snow" sentiment and cat a dot silhouettes too. I love how simple this is! A complete "one layer" card! For the card on the right I did a bit more layering. I added some snow on top of the trees that I embossed in white! So pretty! I also added the "thinking of you" sentiment on the bottom and fun green ribbon.

Here's the whole set:

    These trees are gorgeous! And yes, Newton is one handsome guy. I'm a huge "cat fan" and have been "caring" for "God's cat garden" of feral cats in my neighborhood--two we have "tamed" and they come inside for treats and "luvs". We have neutered 15--and continue to feed them, even create a "shelter" for them when the weather gets cold.

    Love the look of these new stamps, including the cat and dog. And yes, Newton does look handsome, but he still doesn't compare to our own ginger cats, called Vatsiko (male) and Kokkini (the queen of our pet family) lol.
