Balloon Bouquet for Paper Players #534

Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Anne Marie's turn to host our Paper Players challenge and it's theme week: I decided to go all - and feminine! It's a profusion of pink! Someone had better call the carding police - I can't remember ever having made an all pink card. Well, there are touches of white and silver :-) It was a perfect excuse to use the balloon dies from The Greetery that go with the Balloon Bouquet stamp set. I paired it with some gorgeous DSP that I purchased at JoAnns. One of those 3 for the price of 2... Read more →

Beauty Within for Addicted to CAS #194

Happy Saturday! It's my turn to host our AddictedtoCAS challenge this week and I chose this code word: I decided to ink up a stamp and stencil set from Altenew called Beauty Within and I paired it with a stamp set called Opposites Attract from the Greetery. Here's my card: I hope you will join us and play along with this challenge. If you are anything like me, I can always use more birthday cards to send out :-) The design team have some fabulous inspiration for you, including our very talented guest designer - the queen of CAS -...

Bunny Hop for Paper Players #533

Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Ann's turn to host our Paper Players challenge and it's CAS week. Ann chose a fabulous theme for us: There were so many places I could have gone with this but, in the end, I decided to ink up my new stencil and stamp set from the Greetery called Bunny Hop. This card is an Easter card, but I used the same layout to make birthday cards for tbe Bearly Art card drive for kids in foster care. The Greetery really do make it so easy to make these cards. The stencils are numbered and... Read more →

Botanicuts Forget Me Nots for Paper Players #532

Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Joanne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week - and it's color week: Thes eare such wonderful spring colors and I was inspired to use my new die-cuts from The Greetery. I sponged colors as close to Heather and Seaside as I could and die-cut the forget-me-nots. I paired them with a heart from the Posy Heart die and a sentiment from the Mini Heart Boxwood. I blended some ink on the background, too so that I could anchor the posy heart. I popped the flowers up on foam dots to add a... Read more →

Game On for Addicted to CAS #193

Happy Saturday. It's the turn of the fabulous Raga to host our Addicted to CAS challenge this week and this is her code word. Originally, I was looking to do something with triangles, but realized that I had a much more fun choice with Stampin' Up!s Game On. I thought the shapes of the chess pieces and the board inspired background would be much more interesting. This card is one that is going into the collection that I have going for Bearly Art's card drive for Foster Kids. If you are interested in finding out more about this card drive,... Read more →
