Cupcake for Paper Players #513

Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Laurie's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's CAS theme week. Here's Laurie's theme: Aren't they yummy looking baked goods? Those bees are amazing and that cherry cupcake... well, let's just say I could handle that with a cup of tea! I went with Cupcakes for my card and pulled out an old Power Poppy digital stamp. I did some basic coloring and added some shimmer and shine with my gel pen. I used my whimsical stitched rectangle dies and added a sentiment. Easy peasy. Here's my card: As always, the...

Plaid Poinsettia Petals

Happy Tuesday! I did manage to get into my craft room to make two cards this past weekend, but it took a while to do them! Tonight's card is a bit of a departure for me - as it's a little "busier" than my usual cards.

Forever Fern Wreath for Paper Players #512

Happy Sunday! It's the fabulous Ann's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and she has a wonderful color scheme for us: These are such gorgeous fall colors and I decided to use my Forever Fern set to create a wreath. I used Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze and Mossy Meadow for the leaves. I don't have Cinnamon Cider, so I used the closest color I had and created little dots with the head of my stylus all around the wreath. Here's a closeup: Aren't these colors gorgeous together? I decided to add some interest to the base of... Read more →

Foxy for Paper Players #511

Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Claire's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's theme week. What's the theme? Nance created such a great badge - and I saw the fox and decided that would be my focal element. This card is going into the box for Send A Smile for Kids and they have asked us not to include any sentiment. So, all I did was stamp and color the fox and mount the panel onto a card base. Quick and simple. The stamp is from Casual Fridays and is called Foxy. Here's my card On... Read more →
