There's Snow One Like You! PP425

January 20, 2019

It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players!  I am the hostess this week and I have a fun Clean and Simple Challenge for all of you! Who knew that there would be so many snow storms around the country today!  We don't have any snow in Atlanta, but my family in Indiana has a lot!  

Have fun, but remember this is a CAS week, so please remember:

  • Minimal layers and embellishments
  • Plenty of open space, aka "white" space
  • Simple and uncluttered



I love square cards, so I cut my card 5 X 5.  I stamped the little angel bird and his shadow using the Honey Bee stamps Snow Birds.  I colored him with Copic Markers.  I mask off the bird, stamped on the sentiment in black ink  and then I embossed the top with a polka dot stencil using embossing paste.  I stamped the little bird on the envelope, too!  I am not a huge fan of snow, but I do like to build snowmen or make snow angels.  If you have snow, enjoy it!



Challenge Rules:

  1. Create a new paper-craft project specifically for this challenge.
  2. Upload your creation to your blog with a link back to us.
  3. Please provide a direct link to the post featuring your challenge entry.

I Adore You! Sketch Saturday #547

January 18, 2019



Good Morning Everyone...
Welcome to another week at Sketch Saturday!
We have an amazing new sponsor joining us this week.

Scribbles Designs!!

The super prize offered this week is 
a $10 GC to use towards digital images only.

Here is sketch #547:



My card is created on a square card base. (5 X 5)  I found these papers in my Valentine stash and mixed them to create the panels for the sketch.  The white rectangle was embossed with a heart folder.  The Pure Innocence Stamp is from MFT -So Much Love.  I stamped her in Memento Black ink and colored her with Copic Markers.  I paper pieced her dress.  I added Glossy Accents to her shoes and the little heart in her hands.   The heart and arrow are from MFT .  The sentiment is from the same set and heat embossed with white powder.  I love the way this turned out.  It makes me smile!  
 
  I am trying to finish the inside of my cards and make a matching envelope.  That way they are almost ready for the mail.
 
Thank you for stopping by my blog!  Don't forget to visit all the DT blogs for lots of inspiration!  We sure hope you will play along with us!  

HUGS!

Smile SSC196 and PP424

January 13, 2019

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

The fabulous SS sketch is by Annette and the beautiful PP color combo is chosen by our hostess,  Anne Marie!  Oh, there are endless possibilities with both of these challenges.  We sure hope you will play along!



My card is created on a white card base.  I sponged Daffodil Delight and Grapefruit Grove inks on a white panel.  I used a sunburst embossing folder to create a huge sunshine.  The white rectangle strip was stenciled using Pool Party ink and a sponge.  I backed the sentiment panel with Pool Party and used the Casual Friday Smile stamp set.   I used Grapefruit Grove to stamp the word smile and black ink for the rest of the sentiment.  I added a few enamel dots to complete the card.  I am sending this to a friend that is battling cancer.  I hope it makes her smile!  It was made with love!
