    Here's some inspiration!

    Several of our Design Team Members decided to play along - check out all the awesome burlap and lace cards they created! Read the description below each card to see who made it.
    Pumpkin Card with Burlap & Lace by Naki Rager | InkyPaws Challenge | Pick-a-Pumpkin stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook
    Naki created an awesome pumpkin card using burlap and lace with our Pick-a-Pumpkin stamp set and Pick-a-Pumpkin Die Set! Such a perfect look for Fall! 

    Butterfly with Burlap & Lace by Samantha Mann| InkyPaws Challenge | Beautiful Wings stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook
    This simplicity on this card by Samantha is so lovely! She used burlap and a lace doily along with the butterflies from the Beautiful Wings stamp set and coordinating Beautiful Wings die set

    Fall leaves with Burlap Card by Kimberly Rendino | InkyPaws Challenge | Beautiful Leaves stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook
    Kimberly created this awesome Autumn card using our new Beautiful Leaves stamp set and coordinating Beautiful Leaves die set! I love the burlap leaf that she cut out with the oak leaf die! 


    Masculine Deer Birthday card with  Burlap Card by Crafty Math-Chick | InkyPaws Challenge | Splendid Stags Die set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook
    Crafty Math-Chick used burlap as a fun background for the die cut deer shape from our Splendid Stags Die Set. Then she added the "Happy Birthday" from the new Raccoon Rascals stamp set. What a great masculine birthday card! 


    Fall leaves with Burlap Card by Jennifer Jackson | InkyPaws Challenge | Beautiful Leaves stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook
    Of course I had to play along too! I used the images from the Beautiful Leaves stamp set and embossed them on kraft colored paper in gold, white and brown. Then I trimmed them out with coordinating Beautiful Leaves die set. The tag was cut out using our Tags Times Two Die Set.  I added some burlap behind the tag and a strip of lace too!
