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 →

Happy Wednesday! It's hump day and we are coasting down to the weekend :-) I have a card for you tonight made using the sketch across at CasethisSketch and the theme from JustUsGirls. For my card, I pulled out an old favorite from Ellen Hutson called Latte Love. That set had me at catpuccino :-) Here's the sketch: and the theme: I was drawn to the perfectly placed coffee beans around the coffee cup and it reminded me of the sketch at CTS. So, i started with that and then got to work on my coffee cup. I had a... Read more →

Beauty within for Just Add Ink #519

Happy Tuesday. I have another card using the Altenew Beauty Within set for you today. I made this card inspired by the colors across at Just Add Ink. I didn't have the exact colors, but got as close as I could. This card really needed re-photographing as my new lighting set up is showing a little too warm and I can't quite get it right. So, the card is really bright white, and the colors not quite as insipid! I couldn't rephotograph it, as the card is already in the mail! Here are the colors from Just Add Ink: I... Read more →

Whale of a Time Birthday Fishes for AtlanticHearts 381

Happy Saturday! I got a little time in my craft cave today and played along with the fabulous new sketch at AtlanticHearts they really do have great sketches! I hope you will pop along and check out the wonderful design team and submission cards - and play along! I had this idea in my head to use some of my favorite SU DSP - Whale of a Time. I also inked up the fish stamp from the Whale Done stamp set with Night of Navy ink and stamped it multiple times to make it look like a shoal of navy... Read more →
