Happy Sunday.
Today it is the fabulous Claire's turn to host our Paper Players challenge and it's color week. Here is our challenge:
Initially I really wanted to make a New Year card, but decided to make a celebration card instead. I paired the poinsettia with a sentiment from the Happiest of Birthday's set and created this clean and simple card.
I heat embossed the bracts from the Poinsettia with silver embossing powder and layered them with a little foam tape and added that large sentiment. A really easy card to put together. It's the kind of card that could be used for a winter wedding or birthday.
We hope that you will join us and play along with our final challenge of 2020. As always the very talented design team have some fabulous inspiration for you:
As this is our final challenge of 2020, it is also time for us to say goodbye to our very talented 2020 Guest Designers. Allisa, Mary and Stef - it has been a pleasure to be able to craft with you this year and have you share your immense talents with the Paper Players. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of our team.
I'll be back tomorrow with another card and some photographs. In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift today.
Hugs
Jaydee

A winter birthday card is a wonderful way to get more use out of a gorgeous stamp and I love the poinsettia with silver embossing on white, Jaydee. Your card is such a beautiful use of Claire's fabulous color challenge!
Thanks for the sweet sendoff, Jaydee. As a guest DT this year it has truly been an immense pleasure to create alongside this amazing team!
Hugs,
Stef xx
