Here's a refresher.

Use the challenge sketch. 

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

Debbie Owens uses the patterns and colors from the A Cat's Life paper pad to create this bright, fun card featuring the studious feline from the Newton's Reading List stamp set. And coffee is definitely a fun way to enjoy life, so Deb adds a cuppa of Java from the Newton Loves Coffee stamp set!

Is it happy hour, yet? Amy Tollner thinks it is with her darling feline from the Newton's Happy Meowr stamp set who is enjoying a fruity cocktail. Amy has pulled some fun summery papers from the Summertime paper pad making for a festive setting. She stamps her sentiment on a little banner using the Banner Trio die set.

Claire Lamb has a creative take on the sketch with her honey bee take! She uses the Heartfelt Honeycomb stamp set to create her bakcground. She then adds a trio of honey bee boxes with some tall, green grass (Land Borders die set). That handsome beekeeper is our very own Newton from the Beekeeper Newton stamps and coordinating die set.

Crystal Minkler is getting us ready for the upcoming fall season with her darling Halloween card! She uses festive papers from the Halloween Meows paper pad and the Frames & Flags die set to create her background layers. She showcases her feline witch from the Newton's Perfect Pumpkin stamp set on a bold, black hexagon background (Hexagon Frames die set).

Reading to go surfing? Danni Bindel's card will have you packing your car and heading for some waves. She uses the Basic Frames and the Frames & Flags die set to create those pretty layers with papers from the Summertime paper pad. And her VW Bug from the Beach Bound sta mp and coordinating dies is packed and ready to roll! A super fun way to use the sketch!

I hope these projects have inspired you to play along! Remember, you have until this Friday, August 2, 2024 to enter. There's a prize involved too, so don't delay - see more inspiration on our Inky Paws Challenge here.

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

Debbie Owens creates a spooky square card using the Frames Squared die set. On a yellow background, she adds her background using the Spooky Line Street stencil. She then adds a shimmering puppy ghost from the Ghostly Good Times stamp set. The black and yellow paper from the Halloween Time paper pad adds to the fun as do the little touches of fuchsia!



Amy Tollner's candy-filled card is any trick-or-treaters' dream! That candy filled background comes from the Halloween Woofs Paper Pad. She adds a trio of trick-or-treaters from the Halloween Trio Stamp and coordinating die set. An added Jack-o-lantern bucket from the Count Newton Stamp and coordinating die set - pumpkin pail adds to the fun. The sentiment is stamped on a banner from the Banner Trio Die Set. Amy also uses the postage-edge frame from the Framework Die Set.



Claire Lamb uses shades of teal to make the cutest evening setting for her little ghosts! She uses the Spooky Line Street stencil to add the stars and the mini ghosts in the background. She then adds the kitty and puppy ghosts from the Ghostly Good Times stamp and die set. Who knew that teal would look so spooky? Nicely done, Crystal!


Crystal Minkler's card is so cute with ALL the pumpkins! Crystal pulls pumpkin papers from the Halloween Meows paper pad and matches with the little kitty from the Newton's Perfect Pumpkin stamp set. She adds a sentiment from the Spiderweb Oval stamp set as well as some bats using the Witchy Newton die set. A little vellum oval frames (Oval Frames die set) frames the sweet kitty witch! Adorable!



Danni Bindel creates a darling card featuring the perfect paper from the Halloween Time paper pad with the little witch from the Brooms & Boos stamp and coordinating die set. The little witch looks darling with the cauldron and different potions in the paper. To break up the paper, Danni uses one of the dies from the Framework die set. Fabulous combination!!

Amy's FAVE

Kristi H.'s Halloween card caught Amy's eye.  With the spooky purple background peeking out her windows, Krist adds the little ghost and owl from the retired Boo Hoo stamp set.  For her third window, she adds the sweet, little Jack-o-lantern from the Newton's Perfect Pumpkin stamp set. Those playful polka dots are from the Halloween Meows paper pad, and they pull all the colors of Kristi's card.  For her sentiment, she pulls the Happy Halloween from the Spooky Roundabout stamp set.  Fabulously done!

Claire's FAVE

Vicki's use of the pastel papers from the Birthday Woofs paper pad with the two ice cream cones from the Summer Scoops stamp and coordinating die set was a fabulous idea. The pale yellow ice cream looks so delicious, especially with the added sprinkles using the Celebrations Embellishment Mix.  She also uses the heart from the Furr-ever Friends die set and the postage-edged die from the Framework die set to complete this scrumptious card!

Crystal's FAVE

Becca's combination of the lime green paw print paper and the pink polka dotted paper caught Crystal's eye.  Both papers are from the A Cat's Life paper pad.  Becca continues the fun by turning the card and adding circular elements with images from the Cat Treats stamp set. Don't you just love the little donut and ice cream cone?!  Wonderfully done!

Danni's FAVE

Jennifer K. caught Danni's eye with her use of the lime green!  Jennifer finds the perfect color of green ink to create her background using the Holiday Foliage stencil. She continues the fun by adding striped paper from the Canine Christmas paper pad. Instead of stamped images, Jennifer carefully cuts out her canine images from the paper.  Such a clever idea!  She then pulls the sentiment from the Puppy Present stamp set.  Such a bright, festive card!

Debbie's FAVE

Danielle's use of purple and orange caught Deb's eye. Danielle pulls the orange seashore paper from the Summertime paper pad, and then uses the Confetti hot foil plate with purple foil.  For her stitched circles she uses the Slimline Frames & Portholes die set.  Love it!  She adds a trio of very scrumptious-looking drinks from the Cocktail Mixer stamp and coordinating die set.  The overall effect is "Let's celebrate! 

Thank you for playing!

She adds her punny sentiment on a stitched circle using the Slimline Frames & Portholes die set. A fabulous way to use the challenge sketch!

Eeek! Claire Lamb creates this delightful green & black Halloween card using images from the Franken-Newton stamps and coordinating die set. She adds the perfect sentiment on a scallop-edged heart using the Heart Frames die set. The polka-dotted paper is from A Dog's Life paper pad. Don't you love the added little heart with the stitches! So cute!

For even more Halloween fun, Crystal Minkler's card is filled with pumpkin cuteness! She uses the pumpkin paper from the Halloween Meows paper pad and combines it with the green & yellow striped paper. That cute little feline in her witches hat is from the Newton's Perfect Pumpkin stamp set as are the little Jack-o-lanterns. For her die cut elements, Crystal uses the Frames & Flags and the Circle Frames die set. Happy Meow-oween, indeed!

Danni Bindel is back with more feline fun. She pulls coordinating papers from A Cat's Life paper pad and adds two sweet orange tabbies from the Newton's Antics stamp and the coordinating die set. She adds the sentiment on a stitched circle using the Frames Squared die set. For her postage-edging, she uses the Framework die set. A purr-fect way to wish someone a happy day!
