Happy Halloween by Kristi features Creepy Cameos, Cameo Frame, and Halloween Meows by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #newtonsnook, #halloweencards, #cardmaking, #cardchallenge
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's card features Spooky Line and Candy Corn Newton by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #newtonsnook, #catcards, #halloweencards, #cardchallenge, #cardmaking
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
Thanks a latte by Angy Hughes features Pumpkin Spice Latte and Falling Leaves by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #newtonsnook, #cardmaking, #cardchallenge, #coffeecards, #coffeelovers
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
Thanks a latte by Laurie features Pumpkin Latte and Falling Leaves by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #newtonsnook, #coffeecards, #coffeelovers, #autumncards, #cardmaking, #cardchallenge
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
Have a cozy day by Maria features A Cozy Day by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #newtonsnook, cardmaking, #cardchallenge
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!

   Welcome to a new Inky Paws Challenge!

This challenge is a

Color Challenge.




Use the colors-Orange, Green, Black, & Cream.


Are you ready to get your paws inky with us and play along to win a prize? We will chose a RANDOM entry to win a $20 store credit to our Newton's Nook Design online shop! We will also highlight our favorites from each challenge the following Monday so all entries have a chance to be featured on this blog! 


You have TWO WEEKS to play along - Deadline to enter is Friday, September 23, 2022 at Midnight CST. The winners will be announced on the NND blog the following Monday. 

Are you ready to play along and get your paws inky? Make sure you check the challenge rules page before you link up your project. 

Here's some inspiration from the IPC Design Team:



Diane Morales uses the challenge colors for this sweet, autumn scene.  Using the Frames Squared die set, Diane makes a scallop-square card base. She then uses a plaid paper from the Autumn paper pad for her sky and makes her grass using the Land Borders die set.  Enjoying this nice autumn day is one of the darling mice from the Autumn Mice stamp and die set. So cute!



Be thankful by Sue features Beautiful Blossoms, Autumn Newton, and Speech Bubbles by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #newtonsnook, #thankyoucards, #cardmaking
Sue T. opts to use the challenge colors for a gorgeous floral card. She uses the large speech bubble die (Speech Bubbles die set) to make her black element and adds beautiful flowers using images from the Beautiful Blossoms stamp and die set. On her cream card base, she stamps "Be Thankful" using a sentiment from the Autumn Newton stamp set.  Beautiful!


Fab(boo)lous by Amy features Witchy Newton, Spooky Roundabout, Halloween Trio, Oval Frames, Banner Trio, Frames & Flags, and Halloween Woofs by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #newtonsnook, #halloweencards, #catcards, #cardmaking
Amy Tollner was inspired to use the colors for this bright, not-too-spooky Halloween card! She colors the kitty witch's boot (Witchy Newton stamp and die set) in a bright green and places it on a vellum oval (Oval Frames die set).  She pulls the batty paper from the Halloween Woofs paper pad cut using the scallop-edged frame die (Frames & Flags die set).  She heat embosses the white sentiment (Spooky Roundabout stamp set) on a black banner (Banner Trio die set).  She finishes it off with a couple of spooky bats (Halloween Trio Die set).  Fab(boo)lous!



Claire Lamb is showcasing her incredible ability to create spook-tacular backgrounds! She adds some trees (Forest Scene Builder die set) to her full-moon scene and uses the Land Borders die set to create her ground. Two critters decked out in their costumes from the Halloween Pile stamp and die set bravely walk through the scene escorted by a trio of bats. To finish off her card, Claire pulls a sentiment from the Spiderweb Oval stamp set. 


Made for each other by Debbie features Creepy Cameos, Franken-Newton, Framework, and Halloween Meows by Newton's Nook Designs; #inkypaws, #newtonsnook, #halloweencards, #catcards, #cardmaking
 Debbie Owens' Halloween card looks like it's set in a hallway manor. She creates her scene using the green-striped wallpaper from the Halloween Meows paper pad. Deb cuts the paper using the postage-edge die from the Framework die set. Look at the portrait of the Bride of Franken-Newton (Franken-Newton stamp set) in her spooky frame (Creepy Cameos retiring stamp set, which is on sale for $4.99!). Enjoying that portrait is our very own Franken-Newton as he shambles down the hallway!  So clever!

Use the colors-Orange, Green, Black, & Cream.
