Inky Paws Challenge - Autumn Theme

HAPPY MONDAY!

Who is ready for a NEW Inky Paws Challenge?

I just LOVE autumn!

I been in crafty rut lately.

As makers we always look for inspiration everywhere.

Why not use the challenge picture and create a card based on it?

A card by Diane Morales created for the Inky Paws Challenge by Newton's Nook Designs

The background was created using the FRAMES AND FLAGS DIE SET

and papers from my stash.

On top of that, I have the 3¼ stitched circle from the

CIRCLE FRAMES DIE set to create my feature circle.

Grass under the truck was created by back cutting

a piece of the stitched circle and inky up the piece with Distress Ink.

The feature stamp is from FARMING FUN STAMP SET.

Fall colors are the best!

I used those colors and the leaves and pumpkin from the

Paw-tumn Newton Stamp to add that fall flare.

Checkout how the pumpkin fits perfectly in the truck bed.

Finally, I used a sentiment from the FALL ROUNDABOUT STAMP SET

and the BANNER TRIO DIES to create a place for the sentiment.

I hope you enjoyed my (literal) take on our Autumn Theme.

May this card inspire you to use your favorite Newton’s Nook Stamps

along with the sketch and GET CRAFTY!

Animal Antics - Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

HERE AT THE

ANIMAL ANTICS is the challenge!

but if you have some of their product in your stash, we would LOVE to see them used.

A month-long celebration of all things stamping and crafty!

Here are the products I used for this challenge.

Check out my fun shaped card that would make

a great birthday card to brighten someone’s day.

I started out by creating a card base using my

SIMON SAYS STAMP NESTED CIRCLES DIES

and the

DOODLEBUG SIMPLY SPRING 6X6 PAPER.

Once that was done it was time to layer all the pieces.

I used the DOODLEBUG “PARTY LLAMA” DOODLE POP and pieces from

DOODLEBUG HEY CUPCAKE CHIT CHAT DIE CUT SHAPES.

A background of SIMON SAYS STAMP WHITE CARD STOCK and

SCALLOPED CIRCLE STACKABLES BY LAWN FAWN helped

to break up all the color in the card.

I layered the pieces I chose until I liked the way the card looked.

And that completes my take on ANIMAL ANTICS

Inky Paws Challenge 132 - Sketch Challenge

Hello Inky Paws Fans!

We are at the halfway point of this current challenge.

Using the sketch challenge, I came up with this batty Halloween Card.

A shaped card by Diane Morales using the Batty Newton Stamp by Newton's Nook Designs

The background was SO MUCH FUN to make.

I used the CLOUDS STENCIL and Distress Ink and just started inking up paper.

No expectations, I just created the clouds till I liked what I saw.

While the clouds were drying, I stamped out BATTY NEWTON

and started to color in the image.

Since the card was going in an all blue direction, I chose red and gray for my image.

I did not want the image did not get lost in the background.

With all the logistics handled, I turned my attention to the making the base of the card.

I LOVE shaped cards.

Using the CIRCLE FRAMES DIE SET I die cut my inked background and added it

to layers and a card base using dies and paper from my stash.

I placed BATTY NEWTON on my card with foam tape and added on my black bats.

I die cut the Fish Tail Banner from the BANNER TRIO DIE SET.

This became a great place to place my sentiment from the BATTY NEWTON STAMP.

A few “stars” add in the background with a gel pen finished this card.

Hope this inspires you to use your favorite Newton’s Nook Stamps

along with the sketch and GET CRAFTY!

NO Stamps Allowed - Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Here at the

This week is for the die-cutters and stencil lovers out there.

NO STAMPS ALLOWED is the challenge!

Featuring (NO) Stamps by Spellbinders.

You do not have to use featured company to join in.

But if you have some of their product in your stash,

we would LOVE to see them used.

It is also STAMPtember!

A month-long celebration of all things stamping and crafty!

Here is the die I used for this challenge.

Spellbinders Spooky Boo Etched Die

This is what I created!

I chose to keep this card all about the paper and dies

I started out with card stock by Simon Says Stamp

Cream Off White

Orange Peel

And

Black Black8

are my color choices.

I started by creating a standard A2 card by using my

Rectangle Basic Set by Memory Box

Once that was finished, I cut ¼ inch and ½ strips of each color of paper.

I also cut a 3-inch strip of paper of each color.

I did not have a plan for the background, I just started laying down strips of paper.

Finally, I settled on this pattern.

Once that was done, I created a base for my sentiment using the

Cream Off White card stock by Simon Says Stamp and some Fun Foam.

Finally, I added my die cuts.

The “HEY BOO” I die cut out three times and glued the pieces together.

I also added a spiderweb and three cute little spiders.

I finished my card by using my Uni-Ball White Gel Pen and added some

“eyes” on my spider and boo.

And that completes my take on a NO stamps allowed
