Let It Snow--PP273

November 29, 2015

 It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players!  
The Sensational Sandy is our hostess this week!  She has a fun BINGO challenge for us to play along with!  We can't wait to see all your creative projects!



I used the top row-Snowflake, Patterned Paper and White and then I realized I used the  first column on my card, too-Snowflake, Blue, Ribbon.  (I count twine as ribbon:)  I love the way this card turned out.  Sometimes, you smile when you are finished! 

 My base card is white card stock.  The next layer is from the Echo Park 6 X 6 paper pack-Winter Wishes using the My Favorite Things-Blueprints 21 rectangle die.  The next layer is from the same paper pack.  My Favorite Things-Fishtale Stax dies were used to cut the two stitched banners with the same DSP.  I stamped the "let it" with Reverse Confetti-Winter Words Stamp Set with Basic Gray ink.  The word "snow" was cut using Reverse Confetti-Winter Words using white card stock.  I cut five of them and I added glue and Dazzling Diamonds glitter on the top one.  


The snowflake is die cut using the Reverse Confetti-Layered Snowflakes Die.  I used white card stock and papers from the Echo Park DSP paper pack to build the layers.  Dimensionals were used to make the layers.  Lots of rhinestones were added for fun!  I added Gray and White Baker's Twine to make the bow.  
So happy you stopped by my blog today!  Please leave a message!  I love to hear from you!

Merry & Bright--The Challenge #52

November 23, 2015
It's Monday and time for a new challenge at The Challenge!
This week we have a gorgeous inspiration photo for you to use.  We can't wait to see all of your beautiful projects!


1. Use the challenge to create a card or paper project.
2. Please add the challenge photo to your post (copy and paste).
3. Have fun and comment on the submissions of others.
4. Anything that is offensive to myself or to my viewers will be removed.
5. Have fun.



My base card is a white square.  (5 X 5)  The next layer is Garden Green (4 3/4 X 4 3/4)  The top layer is red and white polka dots (found in my stash) cut with Simon Says Stamp Square Stitched dies.  The green holly rectangle is cut using the  Simon Says Stamp Stitched rectangle dies using Doddlebug Designs SugarPlum Paper Pack.  The banners are created using the stitched rectangle fish tale banner dies by My Favorite Things.  The sentiment is from a retired Stampin' UP! stamp set (Good Greetings).  I stamped it with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed it with Zing Rouge embossing powder.  



I used the Reverse Confetti-Layered Snowflake Die to create the snowflake.  The base is white and the green is from the Doddlebug Sugarplum paper pack.  Real Red and Garden Green are used in the layers.  I created a white twine bow and added one of the enamel dots on top of the bow.  More green enamel dots were added for fun. 

Thank you very much for stopping by my blog today!  I love to hear from you, so please leave a comment!
