Debbie's FAVE

Dandi93 creates this fabulous easel card shaped like Paris' skyline! She softly colors her kitties from Newton's Sweetheart stamp set in white and gray and adds a pink ribbon on the female feline and softly highlights the sentiment in pale pink.  Wow!

Diane's FAVE

Vicki thinks outside the box by coloring the Christmas toad from the Mistle Toad stamp and die set fun shades of pink and sprinkling hearts on the leaves to camouflage the berries. Using the Serene Stripes stencil, she creates a subtle tone-on-tone background on which to place the toad as well as white hearts from the Candy Hearts stamp and die set. So, so cute!

Sue's FAVE

Marianne creates such an amazing background by adding subtle paw prints using the Pawprints stencil over her pretty pink background. She adds her wonderfully colored kitties and toys from the Newton's Antics stamp and die set. The white and black washi tape is a perfect! 


Becky's FAVE

A. Rose  creates an original sentiment by combining words from the Naughty Newton and Newton's Birthday Flutter sets. She then creates a fun backdrop using the Plaid stencil set for her bright pink kitty
(Naughty Newton stamp set) to slide down!  So fun!

Bobbi's FAVE

Milene shows what happens when a kitty has played too hard!  Her sweetly colored kitty from the Newton's Naptime stamp set is fast asleep atop a pile of pink, white, and gray blankets. 

Thank you for playing!

Inky Paws Challenge #90 Reminder

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

Here'a a refresher.

Create a project using the theme Love/Valentine's.

Today I have some more inspiration for this Challenge! 

Bobbi Lemanski creates this colorful card by using Distressed Inks and the Tumbling Hearts stencil. Then she showcases the new Candy Heart stamp and die set on a scalloped-edged topper. She adds red and white twine to finish it off.  How festive and fun!

Debbie Owens presents a sweet, collection of  simple cards by creating layers using the scallop-edged dies from the Framework and Frames & Flags die sets. She then die cuts a stitched heart using the Darling Hearts die set. She adds Newton from the Sending Hugs stamp set with the newly released typewriter from the My Type stamp set. She finishes her card with a bit of white twine and silver hearts.

Diane Morales begins this beautiful card embossing her background using the Floral Lace stencil. On top of her background, she adds the heart from the Darling Hearts die set.  The heart is colored in using the Blooming Botanicals stamp set.  She embosses the sentiment in white on a black banner. So elegant.

Sue T. creates a very fun Valentine's card by using XOXO pattern paper as her base. She then adds a layer using the Framework die at an angle. She stamps some pink hearts using the Tumbling Hearts stencil. To finish off her card, she colors a pink typewriter and adds the sentiment from the My Type  stamp set.  Delightful!

Becky Noelle brings us a super fun camping card!  She uses the  Tumbling Hearts stencil to create her embossed background. For her next layer, she uses a die from Frames & Flags die set. She creates her clouds again using the Tumbling Hearts stencil.  Her focal point is the vintage travel trailer and lawn furniture from the Cozy Campers stamp set.

I hope these projects have inspired you to play along! Remember, you have until this Friday, February 8, 2018 to enter. There's a prize involved too, so don't delay - view all the entries and see more inspiration on our Inky Paws Challenge here!
