2024 National Coffee Day Blog Hop

Today we are playing along with the 2024 National Coffee Day Blog hop!

I you like coffee you are going to LOVE this blog hop! There are so may fun stops on this hop featuring coffee themed cards you are sure to be inspired! There will be prizes too on most of the stops! Read all the way to the end of this post for details on the giveaway from us at Newton's Nook Designs and a link to all the stops.

To celebrate National Coffee Day I am sharing a set of coffee themed cards that I created:

To create this card set I started out with our Natural Basics Paper Pad and Fractured Card Layout Die Set.

I chose four patterns from the paper and cut them out using the Fractured Card Layout Die Set. I used the same die set again on brown and white to create the inside frame and the white centers.

Now I had four perfect spots to add in coffee themed sentiments and images!

Card 1:

This card uses coffee die cuts created with our Coffee Silhouettes Die Set and book die cuts created with our Bookmark II Die Set. The sentiment is from our Never Enough Books Stamp Set.

Card 2:

This card also uses coffee die cuts created with our Coffee Silhouettes Die Set and book die cuts created with our Bookmark II Die Set. The sentiment is from our Time for Coffee Stamp Set.

Card 3:

This card also uses coffee die cuts created with our Coffee Silhouettes Die Set. The sentiment is from our Time for Coffee Stamp Set.

Card 4:

This card also uses the coffee grinder image and sentiment from our Time for Coffee Stamp Set.

I've also created a video sharing how I created these cards!

I absolutely adore how this turned out! Here are images of the products that I used today:

Witchy Halloween Card by Farhana Sarker

Friendly Witch Card

Witches don't have to be bad! Today we are featuring a humorous witch themed Halloween card by Farhana!

This card features the cute witching from our Brooms & Boos Stamp Set. This image featuring a witch holding a Jack-o'-Lantern and holding a mask over her eyes is so fun! Farhana colored the image in fun Halloween colors using alcohol markers and used the coordinating Brooms & Boos Die Set to cut the image out. 

For her card, she started with a white card base and added a fun pattern to it using our three piece Jack-o'-Lantern Stencil Set. With three stencils in this set it's easy to create patterns with multiple colors. 

Once the background was created she cut out a few hexagon shapes from shades of orange cardstock using our Hexagon Frames Die Set. She stamped the funny message from the Brooms & Boos Stamp Set onto one of the shapes and then layered all three onto her background. The with was then added to the largest hexagon.

We hope this whimsical witch card made you smile today!

Autumn Greetings Card by Donna Idlet

Autumn Greetings!

According to the calendar it is offically Fall now and we are ready to get into autumn crafting! Today we are sharing a gorgeous card filled with autumn leaves by Donna.

This card features our Leaf Splendor Stamp Set. Donna watercolored some fall colored papers using distress stains and then she stamped all of the leaves onto the colored papers, embossing them in black. She die cut all of the images using the coordinating Leaf Splendor Die Set. 

For her card she used our Frames & Flags Die Set to cut a scalloped frame from dark brown cardstock. She also cut a lighter brown rectangle that fit just inside the frame edge and arranged all of her leaves onto the rectangle. She added a bit of white paint splatter as a finishing touch. Last, she embossed the "autumn Greetings" sentiment from the Leaf Splendor Stamp Set onto light brown cardstock and then cut it out using the coordinating Leaf Splendor Die Set. She layered this over her leaves with some foam adhesive. 

We hope you enjoyed this beautiful card and are inspired to get into autumn crafting. To see more beautiful creations by Donna, you can visit her blog, Creative Lady!  

Trick or Treat Newton Card by Amanda Wilcox

Trick or Treat! 

Halloween is just around the corner and we are enjoying making Halloween cards! Today we are sharing an adorable trick or treat themed card by Amanda!

This autumnal card features the adorable little kitty dressed in a Halloween pumpkin costume from our Trick or Treat Newton Stamp Set. The cute little image was cut out using the coordinating Trick or Treat Newton Die Set.

Next, she sets the scene for Halloween by adding a line of gravestones using our Spooky Line Stencil. This spooky stencil perfectly sets the scene for Halloween! 

What's Halloween without the candy? To add in the fun sweet treats she used patterned papers from our Halloween Woofs Paper Pad. These fun patterns add the perfect touch of whimsy for a Halloween greeting that is too cute to spook!

We hope you enjoyed this project by Amanda. You can see more over her beautiful work over on her blog, Twiddler's Nook!
