Halloween Inspiration Week - Day 1 - Samantha & Maria

This week Newton's Nook Designs is getting ready for Halloween with a fun Inspiration week! 

All week the NND Design Team will be sharing inspiration using some of their favorite Halloween products to get you in the mood for tricks and treats! Today we are starting the week out with projects today by Samantha Mann and Maria Russell!

Samantha created a sweet Halloween card using pinks and oranges along with some of our favorite Halloween products!

For this adorable creation she paired the images of pets and pumpkins from our Newton's Boo-tiful Night Stamp Set and Pug-kin Stamp Sets. She colored both images using zig watercolor markers and colored some of the pumpkins a fun, unexpected, pink! She cut the images out using the coordinating Newton's Boo-tiful Night Die Set and Pug-kin Die Set.

For her card background she added more pinks to the sky using distress inks across the top of her card panel. Then she added pretty pumpkins using the pumpkin base and stem layers from our 3 piece Jack-o'-lantern Stencil Set. This stencil also includes jack-o-lantern faces but it's awesome how you can use it without the faces for a fun new look! The finishing touch on her card is the sentiment from the Newton's Boo-tiful Night Stamp Set, embossed in white on black cardstock and hand cut out to add onto the card.

Maria created a treat tag that is perfect for dressing up a halloween candy box! 

For this fun tag, Maria started out by creating a tag using our Fancy Edges Tag Die Set. She cut the tag from white, orange and yellow cardstock. Then she cut the yellow and orange tag again using the fun zig zag border that is is included in this die set, layering the colors to look like candy corn! So cute!

Next, she stamped the adorable kitty in the boot from our Witchy Newton Stamp Set and colored it in fun bright Halloween colors. She colored the kitty a light gray and added speckles to the fur for a fun effect! The image was cut out using the coordinating Witchy Newton Die Set  and layered onto the 

For the sentiment she stamped "best witches" from the Witchy Newton Stamp Set. She also added the Trick or Treat Die cut from our  Halloween Trio Die Set. The finishing touch is some pretty ribbon and black and orange twine. What a fun way to dress up a Halloween treat!
