Inky Paws Challenge

Week 2 Inspiration

The holidays are upon us, and this month we are asking for some Holiday Sparkle & Shine on your Newton's Nook Projects for winter, Christmas, and even New Year!

You have until Friday, December 19, 2025 (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 can't seem to get enough of these little snow people from the Snowman Postage Sampler stamp set. This week, I've created a playful wintery scene. I used the Basic Frames die set to create the window from the pink cardstock. I then added the blue glitter paper from the Cheerful Brights Glitter Cardstock Assortment and pulled white glitter paper from my stash which I die cut using the Land Borders die set. I die cut some snow flakes using the Snowfall die set. I modified the tag created using the Essential Tags die set for my sentiment. I placed all my snow people using some 3D foam tape.  I love the bright blue against the pink!  

Now's it your turn.  What will you create this month?

Anything Goes

Snowman Greetings

I had so much fun making this card using the following challenges. First, I used one of my old favorite stamp sets from Paper Smooches--Swanky Snow Dudes. When this company went out of business, I was so disappointed. I love their stamps and have held onto them for many years. I used some scraps from a very old paper pad from Recollections--Cozy Lodge. At last, I used a long-forgotten embossing folder from Lifestyle Crafts.  So in essence, this card is filled with lots of "neglected" stuff.

Summer Cards

I have some fun summery cards to share. 

I used a die cut of a sun to create my own stencil.

I used several retired stamp sets from Newton's Nook Designs:

Corgi Beach stamp set

Newton's Summer Vacation stamp set

Newton's Perfect Wave stamp set

Different stencils were used to create the waves on each card. 

Sea Borders die set that I used to make an acetate stencil.

Lucky that You are My Friend

I'm having so much fun making St. Patrick's Day cards. This fun card features the newly released Newton's Nook Designs stamp set, Newton's Lucky Clover. I used the NND stencil set, Plaid. The tag was created using the NND Fancy Edged Tags die set. I used Copic markers for the stamped image.
