Inky Paws Challenge 241 ~ Sunny Days Theme Challenge {Week 4}

Hello there crafty friend!
 There's just a few more days to play along with the Inky Paws Challenge #241 - Sunny Days Theme Challenge! You have until this coming Friday, June 27th to get your entries in for the challenge and a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs!


This has been such a fun challenge! I hope you have a chance to play along with us if you haven't already! There's just a few days left to play!


I'm sharing a CAS card today featuring the awesome bus from the Beach Bound Stamp Set. It's die cut using the coordinating die from the Beach Bound Die Set. I stamped it with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Copic markers.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Bus: C0, C2, R20, R14, R27
Windows: BG000, BG10
Tires: N0, N2, N4, N6, C0, C2
Headlight / Surf Board: Y11, Y15
Suitcases: BG000, BG10, BG15, E21, E25, C0


I blended a simple background using the edge of a piece of card stock for my ground. I used the residue ink from my brown blending brush to lightly blend my ground. And then I blended some clouds over the Clouds Stencil with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.


This fun scene card just needed a sun to finish it off so I die cut a sun from a couple yellow card stocks using the sun die from the Sky Scene Builder Die Set. I adhered the sun to the card, popped up the bus with foam tape and then stamped the sentiment on the card. Love how quickly this one came together!


Now it's your turn to get your paws inky with your Newton's Nook Designs products and create a project using the fun sketch. Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge! Can't wait to see your projects!


Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.

Inky Hugs,
Crystal

Inky Paws Challenge 241 ~ Sunny Days Theme Challenge {Week 3}

Hello there crafty friend!
 Sharing some more inspiration for week 3 of the Inky Paws Challenge #241 - Sunny Days Theme Challenge! You have until Friday, June 27th to get your entries in for the challenge and a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs!


The weather is definitely shifting into Summer... the heat is here!! I just had to play with the fun daisy dies for a fun sunny day card!


I die cut the daisies from white, yellow and green card stock using the fun dies from the Daisies Die Set. These daisies came together so quickly using these dies!


I wanted a fun sunny days background for my daisies so I grabbed the Summertime 6x6 Paper Pad and die cut all of the pieces using scraps from the Frames & Tags Die Set.


I had a hard time picking which sentiment to use for my card last week so I had a little victory and used the other sentiment from the Sunflower Days Stamp Set. I adore this font and the sentiment!


Now it's your turn to get your paws inky with your Newton's Nook Designs products and create a card using this month's fun theme. Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge! Can't wait to see your projects!


Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.

Inky Paws Challenge 241 ~ Sunny Days Theme Challenge {Week 2}

 Hello there crafty friend!
 Have you played along with the Inky Paws Challenge 241 - Sunny Days Theme Challenge yet?! You have until Friday, June 27th to get your entries in for this fun challenge and a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs!


I am loving this fun theme challenge! I hope you have some time to play along with us.


I went with a simple design for this one. I stamped the beautiful sunflowers from the Sunflower Days Stamp Set. I die cut them with the coordinating dies from the Sunflower Days Die Set. And then I colored them up with Copic markers.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Petals: Y11, Y15, YR15
Flower Centers: E21, E25, E29
Leaves / Stems: YG11, G14, YG17


I die cut scraps of pattern papers from the Bright Basics 6x6 Paper Pad using the awesome A2 Card Layout Die Set. I love how fast I can make a fun background using this die.


I adhered the panel to a white A2 top fold card base that I turned on the side for a landscape card. I popped up the trimmed sentiment and the sunflowers using foam tape.


Now it's your turn to get your paws inky with your Newton's Nook Designs products and create a project using the theme. Be sure to link up to the Inky Paws Challenge! Can't wait to see your projects!


Thanks so much for stopping by!
See ya next time.

Inky Paws Challenge 241 ~ Sunny Days Theme Challenge {Week 1}

 Hello there crafty friend!
Who's up for a new challenge?! It's time to get our paws inky with a fun theme challenge! I always love the theme challenges! So many possibilities! You have until Friday, June 27th to get your entries in for the #241 Sunny Days Theme Challenge and a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs!


I am SO excited to see all the fun entries for this challenge!


I started with my background for this card. I blended some Vintage Photo Distress Ink using the edge of the hill stencil from the Hills & Grass Stencil. I traced the edge of the hill on a scrap of card stock, I cut the edge and used it to mask the hill and then I was able to blend my sky with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. I blended a little bit of Salty Ocean Distress Ink for an illusion of water. I blended some white pigment ink over the clouds from the Petite Clouds Stencil for my sky.


I die cut the panel using the largest die from the Frames & Flags Die Set. I adhered my panel to a Kraft A2 card base. You can't have a sunny day without a sun... so I die cut a cute sun using the sun die from the Sky Scene Builder Die Set.


Now that my background was ready, I stamped a bunch of images from the Summer Moments Stamp Set. So many cute images to play with! I inked them up with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them up with Copic markers. I die cut all of the images using the coordinating dies from the Summer Moments Die Set. I adhered all of the images to my background. I stamped, trimmed and adhered the sentiment to finish it off.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Skin: E000, E00, E11
Hat: E00, E53, BG000, BG10, BG15
Book: C0, C2, C3
Yellow Towels: Y11, Y15
Striped Towel: C0, C2, Y11, Y15, BG10, BG15, RV10, RV02, RV04
Flip Flops: RV10, RV02, RV04
Shells: RV10, RV02, RV04, BG000, BG10
Sand Dollar: E00, E11
Bag: C0, C2, C3, BG000, BG10, BG15
Suntan Lotion: E11, E04
Sunglasses: C0, C2, C3, RV02, RV04
