Inky Paws Challenge #97 Reminder

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

Here'a a refresher.
Color Challenge

Create a project using the colors white, green, teal, and yellow. . 

Today I have some more inspiration for this Challenge! 

Diane Morales uses the challenge colors using the Hardwood stencil. Then she die cuts using the circles from the Frames Squared die set and pops them up using foam tape. Then she colors the trio of hens from the Cluck stamp and die set. She creates a blue banner and embosses the sentiment in white. Such a bright, fun birthday card!

Sue T.'s card is all about dots and is just so cute!  She creates the large dots using the Bokeh stencil set in the challenge colors. She adds her kitty floating on his raft from the Newton's Summer Vacation stamp and die set. She adds a wavy layer using Sea Borders die set. She adds some big clouds with sentiments and some dotted washi tape for her final touch!

Becky Noelle creates this box card that is just full of spring cuteness!  She used the Loads of Blooms stamp set and colors the little girl in the challenge colors. She adds lots of puddles using the Spring Showers stamp set. All those raindrops and the sentiment from the Newton's Rainy Day stamp set look fabulous falling down! She repurposed the Peppermint die to make the sun. For her grass she used the Land Borders die set. 

Just in time to celebrate teachers, Bobbi Lemanski makes this fun and delightful card! She used the challenge colors to make a dotted background using the Bubbly stencil.  She adds some stitched lines and adds the sentiment. Then for her focal point, she stamps a teacher image from the Classy Teachers stamp and die set. She creates an old-fashioned chalkboard and embosses the sentiment in white. This is going to make a teacher very happy!

Debbie Owens creates this festive scene by using distress inks and the Sky Borders die set to create those fluffy clouds. She then creates the hills and grass using the Land Borders die set. She adds the white picket fence using the Fence die.  She colors the kitty from Newton's Birthday Balloons stamp set and adds a bow tie from the Pug Hugs stamp set.

I hope these projects have inspired you to play along! Remember, you have until this Friday, May 17, 2018 to enter. There's a prize involved too, so don't delay - view all the entries and see more inspiration on our Inky Paws Challenge here!

Today I'm sharing some more inspiration for our Theme Challenge! 

Here'a a refresher.  It's a THEME Challenge:  Baby

Today I have some more inspiration for this Challenge! 

Emily Lauritzen delights with these proud parents from Newton's Sweetheart stamp set. The diagonal stripes against the stenciled pawprints Tumbling Hearts working fabulously together. To finish it off are those little black pawprints from the Furr-ever Friends stamp set.

Zsofia Molnar designs these darlings cards with a combination of Loveable Laundry stamp set and Stitched Onesie die set with the cutest baby paper!  I love the soft baby boy colors with the stitched frame!  Cute!

Andrea Shell creates this sweet baby card using Deer Friend stamp set. I love how she frames the deer with the scallop edging. Then there is all the pink!  Seriously...delightful!

Debbie Owens uses Wild Child stamp set and Frames & Flags die set to create this sweet baby card. Those soft pastel colors and the bow provide the perfect touches to spotlight the darling giraffes!  

Diane Morales' tag makes for a special touch for a baby shower gift. I love how she uses  the Spring Showers stamp set with the little chick from  the Hello Spring stamp set. Love her puddle of water and the twine bow!

I hope these projects have inspired you to play along! Remember, you have until this Friday, March 2, 2018 to enter. There's a prize involved too, so don't delay - view all the entries and see more inspiration on our inky paws Challenge here!

We really thought this card by Lysa was fun! We love how she used the digital freebie bird image and paper pierced it out! And the little row of buttons on the bottom is so cute!  

The contrast of colors on this card by Kate really caught our eye. We love how she mixed neutral background patterns with the pops of red and yellow! She did a great job coloring that kitty from our Newton's Birthday Bash set too! 

We loved this snuggly kitty card by Kelly! She used the little heart over and over to create her own background for the top of the card -so fun! You can find that heart and the snuggling kitties in our Newton's Antics set.

Thanks so much!
