Inky Paws Challenge #255 Week 1

 

Inky Paws Challenge #255

Week 1 Inspiration

You have until Friday, August 28, 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!  The winners will be announced on the NND blog the following Monday.  Make sure you check the challenge rules page before you link up your project. 

Going through my NND paper stash, I realized I hadn't used the Love & Chocolate paper pad in ages. I selected a trio of papers with the Card Layout 7 die. Then I pulled the gluttonous feline from the Newton's Thanksgiving stamp set. I also stamped the plate with the pie piece. I cut out the pie and added some chocolates that I cut from the paper. I made a banner using the 

Frames & Flags die set with the "Gobble to you Wobble" sentiment. I loved how this turned out and being able to use a Thanksgiving set with a different theme. 

Now it's your turn to use the sketch for a chance to win a $20 store credit!

Wishing You the Best

I recently won store credit from AlteNew, and I purchased the Fruit & Flowers bundle. I fell in love with all the different fruits in the set. I gravitate towards cute and whimsical images, so this set is outside my normal comfort zone.  I like how it turned out!  Thanks for stopping by!

Thx Dad from the Cats

This card was inspired by my cats' never ending need for food! Imagine that!  Velcro, especially, is food fixated. Every morning, he wakes me up by pawing me in the face or nipping my nose, so he can show me his food dish, which does have food in it.  He just needs to show me!  Later in the morning, he starts meowing at my husband and me. We have to follow him to look at his dish at least 10 more times throughout the day! It's quite comical, except for the nose nips!

For this card,  I used some beloved Paper Smooches products to build this grocery store scene. In the cart, there are lots of cans of cat food. I made it so the cans inside the card move around. The little bit of pattern paper is from Echo Park.
