Here's some inspiration.  

This color combination would make fun Valentine's, flowery spring, or beautiful birthday cards. There's so many ways to combine them.  Let's see how the IPC team used them:

Danni's Valentine's card features Puppy Heart, Frames & Tags, Heart Frames, and Love & Woofs by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #inkypawschallenge, #newtonsnookdesigns, #newtonsnook, #valentinescards, #lovecards, #cardmaking, #cardchallenge, #puppycards
Danni Bindel creates this darling Valentine's card using the sweet puppy from the Puppy Heart stamp set. She uses papers from the Love & Woofs paper pad to create the panels made using the Frames & Tags die set. She die cuts (Heart Frames die set) a large heart in which she has embossed puppy paws using the Pawprints stencil. The overall effect is puppy cuteness!

Deb's love card features Valentine's Postage Sampler, Petite Hearts, Frames & Flags, Frames & Tags, and Heartfelt Love by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #inkypawschallenge, #newtonsnookdesigns, #newtonsnook, #valentinescards, #lovecards, #cardmaking, #cardchallenge
Debbie Owens was also inspired to use the Frames & Tags die set to create her card layout. She frames it with the scallop-edge die from the Frames & Flags die set. See those little hearts in the background? Those were made using the Petite Hearts stencil. Deb scatters different images from the Valentine Postage Sampler stamp set. She adds sentiments pulled from the Heartfelt Love stamp set. A wonderfully designed "love" card!

Amy's Valentine's card features Charming Hearts Frame, Valentine's Words Trio, and Lovely Hearts by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #inkypawschallenge, #newtonsnookdesigns, #newtonsnook, #valentinescards, #cardmaking, #cardchallenge, #lovecards
Amy Tollner was also in the Valentine mood. For her sweet card, she uses the heart paper from the Lovely Hearts paper pad. She then uses the recently released Charming Hearts Frame die and adds some white and shimmering red hearts to it. She continues with the XOXO sentiment from the Valentine Words Trio die set. A fabulous combination of products!

Claire's coffee card features Coffee Frame, Thanks a Latte, and Christmas Basics by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #inkypawschallenge, #newtonsnookdesigns, #newtonsnook, #coffeecards, #coffeelovers, #cardmaking, #cardchallenge,
Claire Lamb opts for a coffee-themed card. She uses the Coffee Frame die set atop red polka-dotted paper from the Christmas Basics paper pad. She then adds her sentiment with each word in a challenge color. This fabulous sentiment is from the Thanks a Latte die set. A fabulous way to send thanks to a loved one!

Crystal's coffee card features Coffee Silhouettes, Newton Loves Coffee, Framework, and Coffee Shop by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #inkypawschallenge, #newtonsnookdesigns, #newtonsnook, #coffeelovers, #coffeecards, #cardmaking, #cardchallenge
Crystal Minkler also goes with a coffee-themed card! She embraces the turquoise and browns of the challenge with a splash of red on her coffee mugs!  Crystal creatively combines papers from the Coffee Shop paper pad. She creates her different layers using dies from the Framework die set.
