June  14, 2026

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

The creative Christy is our hostess this week and she has a very fun color challenge for all of us.  I love to mix and match bright colors so, I had a blast creating my card.   I can't wait to see what you create! 

I just love all these bright, happy colors.  I received the new Spellbinders May 2026 Large die of the month.  It was a labor of love to cut all the pieces for sure.  I did enjoy seeing it all come together.  Especially the parrot.  He made me smile.  I embossed the Coastal Cabana background with a flower embossing folder.  The sentiment is from a retired MFT stamp set.

Heartfelt Thanks Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC388

It's time for a new challenge at Sunday Stamps

Our sketch is by the wonderful Lisa.  It is an easy one to use and you can make any type of card.  So get creative and show us your projects.  


My card base is SU Old Olive.  The DSP is from Stampin Up, too.  It is called Forever Greenery.  It is retired now.  I really love this paper pack.  I cut rectangles for the sketch and backed them with Old Olive.  I added a few gold sequins.  I added the twine bow and realize now that it wasn't tied when I took the picture.  I already mailed it out so, I couldn't fix it and take a new picture.  LOL

Enjoy the Ride The Paper Players Challenge PP789

June 7, 2026

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

The Sensational Stef is our hostess this week and she has a very timely challenge for all of us.  Since Father's Day is just around the corner, it is the perfect time to make a "Masculine" card.  So have fun and get create and show us some manly projects.  


My Bill loves old classic cars, so this one is for him.  I added a blue panel for my background. I stamped the Unity background stamp Vroom in black ink for the next layer.  I also stamped a second background and fussy cut 3 of the cars and colored them with colored pencils.  I added dimensionals on the back to pop the cars up. I also added Glossy Accents to the windows and wind shields to look like glass.  The sentiment is from an old retired SugarPea designs stamp set.  I love the way it turned out.
