Inky Paws Challenge #253 - Friendship Cards Theme Challenge Week 4

 Hi everybody!  This is Week 4 of the Inky Paws Challenge!  It is Friendship Cards Theme Challenge.  You have until Friday, June 26th 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 the paper I wanted to use for the background from the Coffee House Stories Paper Pad and cut it using the Card Layout 7 Die.  I then used the same die to cut out the kraft frame. 

Next, I stamped this cute coffee mug image from the Coffee Delights Stamp Set.  I colored it with copic markers and cut it out using the coordinating die set.

For the sentiment, I cut a piece of dark brown cardstock using the stitched fishtail banner die from the Banner Trio Die Set.  I stamped the sentiment, which is from the Heartfelt Coffee Stamp Set, and white heat embossed.  

I assembled my card using dark brown cardstock for the base, and popped up the image and sentiment banner with foam tape for some dimension!

For finishing touches on this card I added accents with a white gel pen, glitter, and a few sparkling sequins!  Now it's time to get your paws inky creating a project with a Friendship Theme using your Newton's Nook Designs products.  Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge!  Hope to see you there!

Inky Paws Challenge #248 - Color Challenge Week 1

 Hi everyone and Happy New Year!  A new Inky Paws Challenge starts today!  It is a Color Challenge.  The colors are Cinnamon Red, Lilac, Soft Pink, and Buttercream White.  You have until Friday, January 30th 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 the heart patterned papers for the background from the Lovely Hearts Paper Pad.  I cut them out using the A2 Card Layout Die Set.  I then used the same die set to cut out the white frame.

I stamped this gorgeous group of coffee cups from the Coffee Delights Stamp Set.  I colored them with copic markers and cut them out using the coordinating die set.

Next, I used the smallest scalloped heart die from the Heart Frames Die Set to cut out a piece of red cardstock.  I then stamped the sentiment, which is from Newton Loves Coffee Stamp Set, onto the red heart and white heat embossed.  

I assembled my card using red cardstock for the base and popped up the image and sentiment heart with foam tape for some dimension!

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