Inky Paws Challenge #213 Prize Winner!

We've chosen one RANDOM winner using random.org to receive

Danielle's use of teal, red, and white is a wonderful color scheme!  She uses the retired Ornaments stencil for her teal background atop the red and pink striped paper from the Summer Time paper pad. She stamps the sentiment on a banner (Frames & Flags die set) and showcases the puppy from the Santa Paws stamp set (Simon Says 2023 STAMPtember  NND Exclusive). A fabulously designed card!

Jennifer K.'s coffee-themed card is so cute with the coffee beans in the background paired with the red houndstooth paper from the Canine Christmas paper pad. She die cuts (Coffee Silhouettes die set) three coffee mugs and stamps the sentiment from the Love Cafe stamp set.  The whole card looks so cozy and cute!

Amy's FAVE

Crafticarri designs a super fun card just perfect for the holiday season!  The fun papers work wonderfully with the dinosaur duo from the Prehistoric Christmas stamp and coordinating die set. This fun set is retiring, so grab your set before it's too late!  Thanks, Crafticarrie for showcasing this set so amazingly!

Claire's FAVE

Crafticarrie's use of red and white makes for a spectacularly festive card!  All the different papers are perfect for Santa from theDear Santa stamp and coordinating die set.  Holiday cuteness!

Crystal's FAVE

Jennifer K. turns the sketch vertically and uses the stacks of books from the Coffee House Stories paper pad to create a library for her sweet puppy! That little fur baby is from the Puppy's Reading List stamp set. Wonderfully done!

Danni's FAVE

Tracie's choice of papers from the Christmas Time paper pad creates a nice mix of patterns and colors.  This makes for a wonderful background for the teal vintage truck from the Holiday Haul stamp and coordinating die set.  Super festive!

Inky Paws Challenge #210 Reminder

Don't forget - 
There's still time to play along with our 

latest Inky Paws Challenge!

  

Have you had a chance to make a card for our latest Inky Paws Challenge? 

Here's a refresher.

Use the challenge sketch above with your Newton's Nook Designs' products!

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

Claire Lamb combines the Candy Corn Newton stamps and die set with the Candy Corn stamp and die set to make this darling Halloween card!  The little splattering of paint in the background adds extra texture and the trail of candy corn candies works delightfully with Newton in his candy corn costume!

Crystal Minkler designs this delightful coffee-themed card!  She uses papers from the Coffee House Stories paper pad.  Love those colors!  She then adds her gray tabby kitty from the Newton Loves Coffee stamp set. To create her different layers she uses dies from the Frames Squared and the Frames & Flags die sets.  Speaking of coffee, did you know that Newton's Nook Designs is a super sponsor for the 2023 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers blog hop?  

Love pie?  Then you are going to love Danni Bindel's card. She is featuring the papers from the Autumn paper pad. Doesn't the pie paper work purr-fectly with our little greedy kitty from the Newton's Thanksgiving stamp and coordinating die set. The postage-stamp edging was created using the frame die from the Framework die set.

Debbie Owens is getting ready for our little man in his red and white suit from the Dear Santa stamp set.  She combines holiday papers from the Christmas Time and the Canine Christmas paper pads. Her green scallop-edge background used the Frames & Flags die set. A fun holiday card!

Amy Tollner showcases the vintage truck from the Harvest Haul stamp and coordinating die set. The harvested produce has been wonderfully colored.  Amy pulls papers from the Autumn paper pad that work perfectly with the truck!  

I hope these projects have inspired you to play along!  Remember, you have until this Friday, November 10,  2023 to enter. There's a prize involved too, so don't delay - see more inspiration on our Inky Paws Challenge here!

Need to get inspired? See what our Inspiration Team created with this challenge! 

 Debbie Owens makes a trio of holiday tags using papers from the Meowy Christmas pad. She uses the Fancy Edges Tag die set for her Kraft tag bases. Then she then adds a Santa Claus image and sentiment using the Dear Santa stamp set. She adds jute and twine bows to finish each tag.  Tags are an excellent way to use up your scraps of pattern paper!  (Visit Deb's blog for more tags!)

Diane Morales pulls out the Meowy Christmas pad and finds the red-on-red gingham design that works wonderfully with her farm critters from the Dairy Christmas stamp and die set. She a banner using a die from the Frames & Flags die set which she trims down a bit.  Super cute!

 

Sue T. also pulls out the newly released Meowy Christmas pad.  She paper pieces her stocking with the argyle design.  That sweet stocking stuffed with Newton is from Newton's Stocking stamp and die set. She stamps her sentiment on a speech bubble from the Speech Bubbles die set. The added stripes of holiday fun gives her card extra holiday fun!

Amy Tollner is also drawn to the red-on-red gingham from the Meowy Christmas pad.  She takes an elegant approach using the image from the Heartfelt Holidays stamp set and cut out using the Heart Frames die set . She adds pine boughs and holly leaves using the Pines & Holly die set. She adds her white heat-embossed sentiment on a green banner die cut using the Banner Trio die set. 

Claire Lamb creates her background using the Land Borders die set. She then adds those precious children heading towards home with their holiday tree. This image as well as the house in the background is from the Holiday Home stamp and die set.  The sentiment is just perfect for this serene card!
