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

Claire Lamb's colorful balloon bouquet looks like the perfect ride for the feline and canine to enjoy a spectacular cloudy day.  To make her card, Claire uses the Clouds stencil and the Oval Frames die set for her sky. Those darling critters and balloons are from the Sky High Celebrations stamp and die set. At last, she pulls a sentiment from the Newton's Kite stamp set. 

 Debbie Owens showcases the napping sloth from the Slothy Christmas stamp set.  This adorable stamp set is retiring, so be sure to grab your set before it's too late!  She pairs him with some cocktails from the Christmas Cocktails stamp set.  For her background she uses papers from the Meowy Christmas paper pad and die cuts little snowflakes using the Snow Globe Shaker die set.

Diane Morales sneaks in one last summer card. This card features the daring surfer Newton from the Newton's Perfect Wave stamp and die set. She combines papers from the Summertime paper pad and stamps some little fish from the Shark Bite stamp set for added fun!

Sue T. showcases the Cultivated Cacti stamp and die set with this elegant, yet CAS card.  The Washi tape and embossed oval add lovely texture that pairs nicely with the patterns on the pots!

Amy Tollner brings beautiful birthday wishes with her card. She showcases the pretty flowers from the Best Mom Oval stamp set with papers from the Springtime paper pad.  She uses the Oval Frames die set to add the scalloped oval. 

I hope these projects have inspired you to play along!  Remember, you have until this Friday, August 26, 2022 to enter. There's a prize involved too, so don't delay - see more inspiration on our Inky Paws Challenge here!

Ready for some holiday cocktails?  Diane Morales' card will definitely get you ready for some holiday merriment!  Her background created using the  Confetti stencil gives her card a fun, party feel. She continues by adding banners in coordinating colors using the Frames & Flags die set. No party is complete without festive drinks? So she uses the Christmas Cocktails stamp and coordinating die set to add a trio of drinks. Merry cocktail to everyone!

Sue T. creates a wintry wonderland to bring good wishes to your holiday season!  She uses the Snowfall Roundabout stamp set to create her custom pattern paper. She adds it to the postage-edge base layer die cut using the Framework die set. Her snowy couple from the Snow Much Cheer stamp and coordinating  die set look amazing in the soft pastel colors!  What a fabulous way to wish someone joy, love, and laughter!  

Need another card to get you into the holiday spirit?  Amy Tollner's bright card might inspire you to reach into your liquor cabinet to duplicate her delicious-looking cocktails!  Using a plaid paper from the Meowy Christmas paper pad, she adds a trio of cocktails from the Christmas Cocktails stamp and coordinating die set. She die cuts the shimmery red bow from the Pines & Holly die set. Don't you just love the yellow and red together?  Cheers to you!

Using tree branches to mimic the sketch, Claire Lamb features a duo of beautiful birds from the Winter Birds stamp and coordinating  die set. She uses the Bubbly stencil to add a subtle design to her wintry skyline with some snowflakes gently falling.  She selects the "Joyful Tidings" sentiment from the Heartfelt Holidays stamp set to send her holiday message!  Just so beautiful!

Set amidst soft pastel papers, Debbie Owens showcases the farm critters from the Dairy Christmas stamp set. She uses the scallop-edged die from the Frames & Flags die set for her base layer, then mixes and matches papers for a sweet holiday card! Happy holidays, indeed!

Here'a a refresher.

Create a project using the theme--Cozy Plaid!

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

 Claire Lamb uses a blue gingham paper for a cozy setting for her trio of felines.  Those amazingly colored kittens are from the Caroling Newton and coordinating die set.  Holiday caroling just wouldn't be complete without some snow. Those pretty snowflakes in the background come from the 

the  Holiday Post stamp set. Oh so sweet!

Debbie Owens showcases just one of the amazing cocktails from the newly released Christmas Cocktails stamp set.  She places it on a bold, black backdrop die cut using the scallop-edged die from the Framework die set. She then uses the large scallop-edged die from the  Frames & Flags die set to die cut her black & white plaid paper. A few red drops and pink & red twine ties her card together! Cheers!

Diane Morales showcases the newly released Meowy Christmas paper pad. She uses the lime green plaid paper that is a wonderful fit with the snow couple from the also newly released Snow Much Cheer stamp and coordinating die set. She places her sweet couple on a scallop-edged circle (Circle Frames die set) and uses the scallop-edged frame die from the Framework die set for a fun shaped card!  Snow cute!

Sue T. creates an original plaid using the Gingham stencil and adding white polka dots. A very festive backdrop for her darling kittens from the Autumn Newton stamp and coordinating die set. The circular window allows more of her amazing background to show giving her card lots of texture!  Super cute!

 Amy Tollner showcases the book lovin' kittens from the Newton's Book Club and coordinating die set. She provides them a pretty room in which to read with the Hardwood stenciled floor and the pink and yellow walls decked out in plaid using the Plaid stencil.  She uses the banner die from the  Slimline Frames & Windows die set for her sentiment as well as the postage-edged frame die from the Framework die set. So cute!

I hope these projects have inspired you to play along!  Remember, you have until this Friday, November 5, 2021 to enter. There's a prize involved too, so don't delay - see more inspiration on our Inky Paws Challenge here!
