Inky Paws Challenge #243 - Sketch Challenge Week 4

 Hi everybody!  This is Week 4 of the Inky Paws Challenge!  It is a Sketch Challenge.  You have until Friday, August 29th to get your entries in and have a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs online shop!

To start this card I picked out all of the papers I wanted to use for the background from the Birthday Woofs Paper Pad.  I then used the Card Layout 4 Die to cut out the patterned papers and the silver glitter border.

Next, I stamped out this super cute image from the Newton Celebrates Stamp Set.  I colored the image with copic markers and cut it out using the coordinating die set.

I die cut a piece of smooth white cardstock using one of the tag dies from the Frames and Tags Die Set.  I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Newton Celebrates Stamp Set, in black pigment ink and clear heat embossed for some shine!  I then inked the edges of the tag with a little bit of purple ink.

I assembled my card to match the sketch using blue cardstock for the base, and popped up the image and sentiment with foam tape for some dimension!

For finishing touches on this card I added accents with a white gel pen, a little bit of glitter and glossy accents, and a few sparkling sequins!  I also added a little purple bow to the sentiment tag!  Now it's time to get your paws inky creating a project for the Sketch Challenge using your Newton's Nook Designs products.  Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge!  Hope to see you there!
