Amy's FAVE

Becca Yahrling creates this bright card complete with Newton soaking in some sun rays!  She uses the Cloudy Sky stencil for some subtle clouds, and that feline in the hanging planter is from the Newton's Hanging Basket stamp set. 

Claire's FAVE

Tracy Grauer's lavender room looks so inviting and relaxing! She uses the Cozy Homes stamp and coordinating die set to create her scene!  Just love the purple-dotted chair and the pretty lavender wall paper!

Crystal's FAVE

Jennifer K. combines sets to create this cozy den. She uses the Simon Says/Newton's Nook Designs Exclusive STAMPtember 2022 stamp set, Warm & Cozy Wishes, for the couch with the critters from the Fireside Friends stamp set.  How cute!  She adds a stack of books and a latte using papers from the Coffee House Stories paper pad. 

Danni's FAVE

Kristi H. was also inspired to use the  Simon Says/Newton's Nook Designs Exclusive STAMPtember 2022 stamp set, Warm & Cozy Wishes. Her purple couch is exquisite! She then decorates her room with a potted cactus using the Cultivated Cacti stamp and corrdinating die set. She frames her sentiment with a frame using the retired Cameo Frame die. 

Debbie's FAVE

What's better on a wintry day?  A cup of coffee, and Meghan created a darling card with lots of java Joe!  She uses the several images from theNewton Loves Coffee stamp and coordinating die set and places them on a snowy background. She places her sentiment on a stitched circle using hte Circle Frames die set.

Marianne pulls festive papers from the Meowy Christmas paper pad for her two cards.  She then pulls the kitty from the Newton's Curious Christmas stamp set in his tangle of lights as well as the kitty from the Newton's Birthday Bash stamp set to feature on each card. Adding a little Santa hat changes the birthday kitty into a Christmas one!  Both cards are absolutely darling!

Danni's FAVE

Kristi wowed us with her monochromatic card.  She used the Halloween Meows paper pad and pulled three different designs in blacks and whites. Don't they look spooky together?  She then uses the retired  Cameo Frame die with a silver embossed sentiment from the retired Creepy Cameos stamp set.  The overall effect is spookily elegant!

Debbie's FAVE

Angy Hughes' repeated use of the Spooky Line stencil at an angle caught Deb's eye.  Such a creative background for her darling kitty in his candy corn costume.  This sweet image is from the newly released Candy Corn Newton stamp set. Such a fun Halloween card!

Amy's FAVE

Angy Hughes is on a roll with her fabulous backgrounds!  Her water colored background in soft autumn colors and subtle leaves (Falling Leaves Stencil) caught Amy's eye.  Paired with the latte-lovin' lady from the Pumpkin Spice Latte stamp set, Angy creates a fabulous shaker autumn card!

Claire's FAVE

Laurie uses the same exact products in Angy's card!  Laurie's card features the softest of pastel colors that are just gorgeous. She uses a dimensional paste with the Falling Leaves stencil, so her leaves have a bit of texture yet remain subtle. She colors her latte lovin' lady from the Pumpkin Latte stamp and coordinating die set in the same soft pastels.  Gorgeous!

Crystal's FAVE

Maria's use of the diagonal stripes in the sketch as curtains was so creative and clever. Enjoying her partially opened curtains is a lovely lady and her duo of cats from the A Cozy Day In stamp set.  Maria then personalizes the book by adding her own title!  So creative and clever!

Today I'm sharing some more inspiration for our theme challenge! 

Here'a a refresher of the challenge:  Add some Sparkle!

Today I have some more inspiration for this Challenge! 

Andrea Shell's card is such a delight! I love how she added that strip of green glitter! Andrea's card features Santa Paws Newton stamp set, Sweater Weather stamp and die set, and Starfield stencil.

I love how Diane Morales creates this shimmery rainbow background using Snowfall Stencil. She then colors Santa from Santa Paws Newton stamp and die set beautifully!

Zsofia Molnar adds golden sparkle by embossing her sentiment from Sentiments of the Season stamp set. I love how she die cut the Cameo Frame out of gold paper to showcase her cute Santa from Santa Paws Newton stamp and die set.

Debbie Owens uses foil card stock to add sparkle to her card. She combines Fox Hollow stamp set, Sentiments of the Season stamp set, Snowfall stencil, and Pines and Holly die set.

Emily Lauritzen creates this beautiful, shimmery watercolored background. I love the silhouette cat from Furr-ever Friends stamp and die set. She also used the sentiment from the Beautiful Wings Stamp Set.
