Bee-Utiful The Paper Players Challenge PP593 and Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC284

May 29, 2022

It's Sunday and time for new challenges at The Paper Players and Sunday Stamps.

The amazing Jaydee is our hostess this week at The Paper Players. She has a fun Tic Tac Toe challenge for all of us. There are so many things you can do with this board!

Sunday Stamps has an amazing sketch challenge for you to use. Have fun and get creative!

I used the middle column: Embossing, Floral, Pearls to create my card from the SS sketch.

My card is created on a white card base. I used this gorgeous floral patterned paper to create the top layer. I used navy and white checks to create the vertical rectangle. I used white and embossed it with polka dots to create the two top elements. I know it is hard to see them, but they are cut using the sketch. I added yellow and white circle cut with dies and stamped the little bee using a retired SU set. The sentiment is stamped using the SSS Bee Yourself stamp set. I added pearls to complete my card.

Thanks For Being So Cool Tic Tac Toe Challenge #tttc163

May 26, 2022

It's time for a new challenge at the Tic Tac Toe Challenge! We hope you will play along with our new board!

My card is created using the first column: Sun, Birds and Thank You.

My card is created on a white card base. I added Oxide Distress inks with a sponge on a watercolor paper. I splashed it with water to create the splatters. I also made a sun using the same method and a die. The crab, umbrella and bird are from a retired MFT stamp set called Just Beclaws. I added googly eyes and paper pieced the umbrella.

Please stop by and see all the fabulous cards by the Design Team. There is so much inspiration!

We hope you will play along with us this week!

HUGS!

Just Beclaws The Paper Players Challenge PP592

May 22, 2022

It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players.

The fabulous LeAnne is our hostess this week and she has a fabulous sketch challenge for all of us! I love this sketch and I can't wait to see what you create! So many possibilities with this sketch.

My card is created on a white card base. I distressed a piece of watercolored paper with oxide distress inks. I added water drops to the ink to create the droplets. I cut a sun using a die out of a piece of distressed ink paper, too! The crabs and bird are made using the MFT Just BeClaws stamp and die set. I think this set is retired. I could not find a link to purchase it. I colored the crabs with Copic Markers, added Wink of Stella and googly eyes. The sentiment is stamped in black using the same set.
