Newton Rides (South)West!


Howdy!  Sharing a card with you today using the adorable Prickly Pear papers and Complements from CTMH along with a new stamp I got from Newton's Nook during the awesome release last month.  I won a stamp set!!! (not this one, but I'll share something with that later!)  I couldn't resist all of the cactus/western themed sets that were released and I just might have ended up with all of them taking up residence in my Southwest home...

I'm playing along with the Cardz TV Anything Goes Challenge #5 with this one.  You should check it out!


I just love Newton and especially love him in his Cowboy duds!  And there are quite a few adorable cowboy Newtons in the Newton Rides West Set... you can check it out here!  Here I did a simple little scene with Newton and the cactus and scalloped piece are from the Prickly Pear Complements.  The die behind them... I must admit I don't know who it's from... I borrowed it from my mom at a crop last weekend, but I plan on finding out because I love it!


The banner is from CDD and the cute little horseshoe and sheriff's badge are from the Newton Rides West set as well... so cute!

I used that fantastic Retro Arrow background die again from Paper Smooches that you can still get in the clearance section over there!  Love this die and the price is more than right!

So thanks for stopping by and do come back again.. I'll be back Monday with Atlantic Hearts and next week starts the Paper Sweeties August Release... hope to see you soon!

And don't forget my giveaway!  You can find out more about that here!

Three Amigos Blog Hop Challenge #4 - Prickly Pear

Welcome to the Three Amigos Blog Hop Challenge for July 2017! This month we are challenging you to use the Prickly Pear papers or be inspired by the colors in the paper pack and create something new, link up, and you could win a small prize!
Here is the paper pack: 
I knew I'd love this paper and so I did not agree to share this one with my mom!  Here is what I've created for you:


I mean if there are cacti on it... it must come home with me you know!  So I got the paper, the complements AND the stamp set!  I used a PML card from the paper pack for the sentiment and the Cactus is from the stamp set.


The awesome garland is from Reverse Confetti dies and the flowers and hearts are from the Complements.


Isn't he a cutie??  Love this guy!


And I scattered a few drops from Doodlebug around because they were the perfect color!

Now be sure to check out what Donna and Susan have created for you!  And we hope you'll play along with us in July!
