Playful Pets for Paper Players #509

Happy Sunday! I have a quick post for you today. It's the fabulous LeAnne's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's Clean and Simple Week with a theme! I decided to reuse a layout from a couple of weeks ago and bring out my Stampin' Up! Playful Pets! Here's the challenge: I used some of the DSP from the suite down the side and stamped and colored my cat. I used one of my Ellen Hutson essentials dies to edge the focal layer and adhered it over the top of the paper on the card base.... Read more →

Forever Fern for Paper Players #508

Happy Sunday. It's the fabulous Anne Marie's turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's color week. I used Stampin' Up! Forever Fern as the main focus of my card. What colors does Anne Marie have for us? Mmmmmm...... looks like I missed something from the challenge! I didn't notice the PLUS GLITTER OR FOIL until I moved the badge across! ugh! it would have been so easy to add a foil leave or a touch of glitter pen. How on earth did I miss that? Sorry, Anne Marie! I must admit that when I first saw... Read more →

Birds of a Feather for Atlantic Hearts Sketch #385

Happy Saturday! The design team across at Atlantic Hearts have another fabulous sketch for us to use this week. I love playing along for two reasons. #1 the sketches ... they always challenge me and I really like that. #2 the design team always stop by and leave personalized comments - and that's rare for a lot of challenge sites! We do that at the Paper Players and I know how much time it takes to consistently do that - so cheers to the DT at AHSC :-) Now, on to this week's sketch: It took me a little while... Read more →

Game On for Paper Players #507

Happy Sunday! It's my turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it's theme week. For my card I used Game On from Stampin' Up! I think it is ideal for masculine cards. Oh, and I love the montage that Nance put together for our badge this week! For some reason, I thought this was Clean and Simple week... but it isn't! However, my card is :-) I stamped and fussy cut the chess pieces and added a little shading to some of the pieces with my Copic markers. I used the "board" piece to create a vertical... Read more →
