I know....... for Paper Players #420

Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Sandy's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's a sketch: I decided to have some fun with this sketch.... well, not so much with the sketch - but with my sentiment :-) I needed a card for Lou and pulled out a set I brought at Ellen Hutson a little while ago. It has some fantastic sentiments, and this one is just perfect. The day Lou met me, he knew it wasn't going to be an easy ride, but he's stuck around for 25 years and I thought it... Read more →

Candy Cane Christmas for the Paper Players #419

Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous LeeAnne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week - and it's Clean and Simple Week.

Every year we would go to the Cenotaph and watch the solemn laying down... Read more →

Wonder and Magic of Christmas for Paper Players #418

Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous die-cutting queen Laurie's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's a color challenge: Oh! I was so tempted to do something floral with this color scheme, but fought my instincts and decided to do a Christmas card instead! I purchased a new stamp and cut set from Hero Arts called Wonder and Magic of Christmas. I got it 20% off at Ellen Hutson during her sale! Poppy Parade is another one of those colors that I just NEVER use... it's way too bright for me. Generally, during color challenges,... Read more →
