Inky Paws Challenge #253 Week 1

 

Happy June!

We are celebrating friends this month!

You have until Friday, June 26, 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!  The winners will be announced on the NND blog the following Monday.  Make sure you check the challenge rules page before you link up your project. 

Here's some inspiration.  

Send a card to a friend! For this challenge, create a card to let a friend know you are thinking of them. Use your favorite colors and stamped images to create a frienship card for any season. Get well and encouragement cards are also allowed for this challenge theme.
