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

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

Here'a a refresher.  It's a THEME Challenge:  Pretty in Pink.

Today I have some more inspiration for this Challenge! 

Andrea Shell creates this darling ombre tiered cake from Newton Loves Cake stamp set. The subtle paw prints from Pawprints stencil and sprinkling of sequins are purr-fect touches to celebrate one's birthday!

Debbie Owens catches Newton having some fun with Newton Unwinds stamp set. I love how the embossing coordinates with the yarn to give the card a playful look!

Diane Morales brings us this delightful oval-shaped card featuring Bunny Hop stamp set. I love all the layers and the scallop edges.

Emily Lauritzen brings us this fabulous shaker card! using Wild About Zoo (retired) stamp set. With the hearts in the background and the punny sentiment, this is going to be purr-fect for Valentine's Day!

Zsofia Molnar creates this set of amazing thank you cards. The gold embossed snowflakes

from Beautiful Blizzard stamps set look striking against the pink background. She uses

Frames & Flags Die Set to create the mat.
