Express Yourself for Paper Players # 318

Hi Everyone. happy Sunday. It's my turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and I have a sketch for you. It's a versatile sketch and our design team made some fabulous cards using this sketch. I made two cards - and really couldn't make up my mind which to go with. I decided that this was was more unusual and decided that I would show you this one first. I will share the other one with you later this week.

Boo for Just Us Girls Challenge #366

Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday. We have another challenge for you across at JustUsGirls this week - and it's a photo inspiration challenge.

It's the fabulous Nance's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a clean and simple theme challenge for us: This challenge was right up my alley and Nance's awesome badge immediately brought an image to my mind as to what I was going to do on my card.

Coffee - for Addicted to CAS Challenge #99

Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday. This is my second post for today. If you are interested in my Just Us Girls card - you can check out this link It's the talented Carolyn's turn to host our Addicted to CAS challenge this week and she has a great code word for us: Now, there are some days when coffee is a MUST have - as opposed to a nice-to-have. On those days - the sentiment from the Altenew Coffee Talk and Coffee Love sets. I paired it with the Coffee stain stencil from Tim Holtz to create this card: Sometimes... water... Read more →
