Inky Paws Challenge #252

Week 4 Inspiration

Use this sketch to create a card or project.

You have until Friday, May 29, 2026 (Midnight, CST) to play along. Each DT member will pick a favorite project to showcase, AND one RANDOM entry will win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Design online shop! 

I couldn't decide whether to make a feline or a canine card, so I made one of each. For my feline birthday card, I used the music-lovin' Newton from the Newton's Mix Tape stamp set. I added more musical touches using the Music Notes stencil to create the backdrop.  I created a banner using the yellow-striped paper from the Pastel Basics paper pad. My finishing touches included a margarita from the Cocktail Mixer stamp set and a birthday hat from the Newton's Bright Birthday stamp. 

For my canine version, I used the puppy from the Puppy's Mix Tape stamp set with a margarita from the Cocktail Mixer stamp set. I used the yellow-striped paper from the Pastel Basics paper pad as well as papers from the New Retro paper pack. That pink shimmery panel was a Retro Mix Toner Front. My banner uses a die from the Banner Trio die set.

I had a great time playing with the retro release products, and I love how uniquely different each card turned out!
