You have until Friday, September 25, 2026 (Midnight, CST) to play along. Each DT member will pick a favorite project to showcase, AND one RANDOM entry will win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Design online shop!

Here's some inspiration: The DT has some fun cards to share this week. Whether you need inspiration for Halloween or Autumn, we have a little of both. Enjoy!
Amy Tollner creates a sweet, spooky card using lots of images from the Halloween Postage Sampler stamp and coordinating die set. She frames her little Halloween elements using the Postage Stamp Layout die. To create a spooky background she uses the batty paper from the Halloween Meows paper pad. A super cute Halloween card!

Claire Lamb creates a swirly chartreuse and green background that is spookily amazing! She adds lots of spooky ghosts using the Ghostly Good Times stamp and coordinating die set. The subtle stars add dimension. An amazing CAS card just perfect for Halloween!

Danni Bindel creates a gorgeous layered card using a combination of papers from the Autumn Meows paper pad and dies from the Heart Frames and the Frames Squared die sets. She colors the leaves and acorns on the Heartfelt Fall stamp set amazingly! A wonderful card for a loved one.
Debbie Owens creates a lovely latte card which includes a pocket for a gift card! She uses papers from the Autumn and the Autumn Meows paper pads which work wonderfully together. She then stamps a coffee mug from the Autumn Coffees stamp set onto the crate from the Newton's Crate stamp set. A wonderful pumpkin-spice latte card!
Kelly Santi uses the Spring Heights stamp and coordinating die set with a Falloween twist! She creates her gray sky using the Clouds stencil which gives her cloud a spooky feel. She uses the Basic Frames die set to create her central panel. She adds the duo of climbing cats from the Spring Heights stamp and coordinating die set and colors the leaves in autumn colors. She adds some bats using the Batty Newton stamp and coordinating die set. For more autumn fun, she adds pumpkins from the Pumpkin Tails stamp and coordinating die set as well as tiny flowers from the Aloha Newton stamp and coordinating die set. At last, she stamps her sentiment on a stitched panel using the Frames & Flags die set. Thanks, Kelly, for showing how to stretch our stamp sets!
Don't forget you have until Friday, September 25, 2026.
