Inky Paw's Challenge 197 - Color Challenge

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We have a NEW challenge coming your way.

Here is my take on the challenge.

For this challenge I used the following Newton’s Nook Design’s product.

Gull Friends

Sunscape Stencil Set

Sea Boarders Die Set

Waves- Shark Bites Stamp Set

Sentiment – Beach Bound

 

For my take on this challenge, I decided to use the challenge colors for a fun seaside shaped card.

I started this card by using the Sunscape Stencil Set.

I taped the stencil onto white card stock and inked up the yellow sunshine.

With a strip of blue cardstock, I used one of the dies from the Sea Boarders Die Set

To die cut some waves for the bottom of my card.

I wanted to add interest to my blue wave bottom so using the water stamp

from the Shark Bites Stamp Set I stamped on water ripples.

To make my shaped card I lined up my sunshine background

with the waves at the bottom inside a Basic circle die.

I taped everything down and ran everything through my die cutting machine.

This created the start of my card front.

I also used the same basic circle die to create my card base.

I started to assemble my card by gluing my card front to the base I created.

Next, I lined up the waves at the bottom with my stenciled sunshine and glued the waves down.

I stamped colored and die cut out my image from Gull Friends.

I added the seagulls to the front of my card with foam tape.

I used an off cut of my die cut waves to cover up the bottom of the pilings

To complete this card, I stamped on a sentiment from the Beach Bound Stamp Set

To the sunshine on my card front

This completes my take on this challenge.

I Hope this gives you a bit of inspiration for your next project.

Inky Paw's Challenge #127

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We have a NEW challenge coming your way.

My inspiration for this challenge is an idea that has been rolling around in my head for a while.

 

 I tried putting this card idea on many different card bases

but sadly, nothing worked out the way I wanted.

It took the Slimline Frames & Portholes Die Set for this card to happen.

I did not use the full length of the die, I used only about ¾ of the die.

 My favorite part is the popup wave in the background that I created using the 

Sea Boarders Die Set

 This is a card piece that is placed behind the other waves.

 I also used the Sea Boarders Die Set to create the break waves on the card.

I used the Hills and Grass Stencil to create the texture in the waves.

My featured stamp is the purr- maid stamp set.

 Yes! my purr-made is pink!

  Why not have some fun with color!

 She is from the Purr-Maid Newton Stamp Set

I created a sparkly purple swimsuit and fin by using Stickles and a drop gem.

 I also added Stickles to my bright colored fish.

For a final touch, I added on the seagulls from the

Gull Friends Stamp Set.

and the sentiment from the same stamp set.

 I hope this inspires you to create something today.

MINE ! IPC 115

Who is ready for a NEW Inky Paws Challenge!

Here it is!

I honestly don’t know where my ideas come from.

When an idea gets stuck in my head, I 
must see it through.

This was the case with this card.

I knew for this challenge I did not wat to do “normal hearts”.

Thumbing through my Newton stamp set I came across my Gull Friends Stamp Set

Then I thought to myself seagulls + sunshine.

I grabbed my Sunscape Stencil and inked up a background

of sunlight using Squeezed Lemonade and Antique Linen Distress Ink.

I also die cut the bottom “sea” part of my card using

the Sea Borders Die Set and some light blue cardstock.

I then colored in my seagulls to match the colors that I had used already.

It is about this time that I realized that challenge was about HEARTS

 and I had NO HEARTS ON MY CARD!!!

In a panic, I started going thru my Newton Stamps looking

 for hearts that would make sense with what I created. 

I found the It’s a Plan Stamp Set with the perfect solution for my dilemma,

Those cute hearts all in a row!

I would stamp my hearts on my sun to “radiate love”

I used Scatted Straw Distress Ink and because I am a messy stamper,
i taped the bottom half so i can stamp the hearts just where i wanted them.

I also stamped in a heart above my seagulls and colored that in with red Nuvo Drops.

I attached all this card together using a base that was die cut from the

Frames Squared Die Set.

Finally, I die cut out the word “mine” using the Essential Alphabet Die Set.

I was just going to keep the letters white, but it looked BORING.

I took a chance, taped my letters down and inked up

the bottom half with the same ink I used for my sun above.

I liked the results and added them to the front of my card to mimic a wave pattern.

And… that is my take on hearts!

 Now it is your turn!

I can’t wait to see what everybody creates.

Don’t for get to tag us on social media.

Happy Monday!

Today starts a new Inky Paws Challenge!

IT’S A COLOR CHALLENGE!

My personal favorite of all the challenges!

 After taking a long look at the colors,

I came up with this idea!

The colors reminded me of a summer evening in Dana Point Harbor.

The Seagulls chilling on the docks looking for fish.

I started this tag with the background color of Teal.

I am not much into plain backgrounds, so I chose

 to splat somewhite paint to give the tag texture.

I also touched up the edges with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink.

This gave the tag a more evening vibe I was going for.

The brown “dock” was created with a section of the

SEA BOARDERS DIE SET that was turned upside down.

The Yellow and Orange is featured with the sentiment in the sun going down

 behind the adorable seagulls from the GULL FRIENDS STAMP SET

I hope you enjoyed my take on the challenge colors.

 I hope this inspires you to come up with a project and share it with us

 using the link in the challenge picture above.

Thanks for stopping by.

Have a lovely week.
