Inky Paws Challenge #127 Favorites

Our Inky Paws Challenge Inspiration team has chosen a few of their favorite challenge entries from this challenge! If you see your card below, contact us if you'd like to get a "favorite" badge for your blog!

Debbie's FAVE

Amy T.  creates a delightful summer scene beginning with her white glittery clouds using the Cloudy Sky stencil. She adds layers of grass using the Land Borders die set and dies cuts both using the scallop-edged die from the Frames & Flags die set. The bright sun was die cut with the Sky Scene Builder die set. She then uses the Freshly Squeezed stamp set (retired) to stamp and color the lemonade stand and bunny. Look closely and you'll see Winston holding a lemon wedge.  She sprinkles in some flowers and butterflies.  Very refreshing!

Diane's FAVE

Joyce M.  repeatedly stamps the ice cream cone and cherry from the Summer Scoops stamp set for her fantastic background.  The lavenders and green is a fabulous color combination.  For her sentiment, she embosses in white on a black card stock.  A wonderful way to celebrate the summer season!

Sue's FAVE

A. Rose  designs a watermelon slice card base in red and greens. She adds some black seeds as well as one overly large seed featuring the watermelon-lovin' kitty from the Newton's Melon stamp set.  Seeing Newton eating watermelon while "inside" a watermelon is a creative way to celebrate summer!


Becky's FAVE

Mugdha uses her favorite stamp set--Newton Scoots By to create this fabulous summer scene. She adds a baseball hat to Newton as he zooms by a sparkling blue lake on a trail of grass!  Seriously too cute!

Crystal's FAVE

Claire's bright sunny backdrop makes for a fabulous setting for the lady dog walker and her pack from the Walking Woofs stamp and die set. She adds a scallop-edged frame from the Frames Squared die set to break up the yellow and add texture.  Her coloring is just amazing too!  Darling!

Hope everybody is doing good, can't wait to see what you guys do for the next challenge.

Andrea Shell creates this stunning floral card using the Peony Blooms stamp set. She also uses the

Debbie Owens makes this fun summer-themed card using the retiring Freshly Squeezed stamp set. She uses the Frames & Flags die set for the background and banners.  Who wouldn't want to buy a glass from the adorable Winston?

Diane Morales creates this fabulous background using Umbrella Pals stamp set that was embossed with white on the dark background. She uses the Sky Borders die set to create the middle border and the Frames & Flags die set for her banners. The bright green frog umbrella finishes the card beautifully!

Emily Lauritzen brings us this lovely card using the Blooming Botanicals stamp set. Her beautifully colored flowers are just striking!  She choose a sentiment from the Peony Blooms stamp set.  Just love all the different patterns Emily incorporates!
