I told you I had something special planned for today - yep, that's right!
Today I'm announcing our very first Inky Paws Challenge!

The Challenge winner will receive a $10 store credit to our online store and a Inky Paws Challenge Winner Badge to add to your blog! If we get more than 15 participants, we will choose two winners so be sure to tell your friends to play along!
Are you ready to play along and get your paws inky?

You have two weeks to play along. Deadline to enter is Friday, August 9, 2013 at Midnight CST. The winner will be announced on the NND blog on Monday, August 12th.
Ready for some Inky Paws inspiration?
Read the descrption below each card to see who made it!
Check out the hello friend card that Design Team Member Tessa Wise created from our sketch! So pretty and feminine! Her card uses the kitty from the stamp set Newton's Antics and the hello from Winged Wishes.
Design Team Member Samantha Mann also decided to play along using Newton's Antics. She also used the "thanks" banner from Winged Wishes. I love all the different patterns she used and how she colored the kitty two-toned!
What a cute card made by Guest Designer Jean Martin using the stamp set Newton's Antics. The navy and lime green color combo are stunning and the little dots she added are so pretty!
Of course I had to make a couple cards too! For my first card I used the set Just say Cheese to create a fun, bright and colorful card!
Then - turned the sketch sideways (crazy, right?) and made this card using the digital freebie - If you don't have a Newton's Nook Designs Stamp of your own to use in the challenge - check out the freebie below!
Free Digital Stamp!
Because you might not have a stamp from Newton's Nook Designs yet (or it's still in the mail), we thought it would be fun to offer a FREE digital stamp so everyone can participate and get their paws inky! To use this stamp, simply right click on the image below and save it to your computer desktop. Print it out and enjoy! Image will look best actual size or smaller. 
Now it's your turn! We can't wait to see what you create - Link your projects up below:
