Have a Peachy Day Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC358

April 13, 2025

It's time for a new challenge at Sunday Stamps.

Deb created this fun sketch for all of us! So many ways to use this sketch and you can create any type of card. So have fun and get creative!

I created my card using the Stampin Up Sweet as a Peach stamp set and You're a Peach DSP. I bought this last year and totally forgot to use it. I Love the colors and the summery feeling this brings. I just followed the sketch and it came together quickly!

Happy Easter The Paper Players Challenge PP733

April 13, 2025

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 beautiful color combo for all of us! This one shouts Spring. So put on those thinking caps and get creative!

I wanted to use this fun bunny to create a card for Victoria. She is my purple lover, so I used a jelly bean stencil and some distress ink to make the background. I mounted the jelly bean panel on Crumb Cake and rounded all the corners. Mr. Rabbit Stamp Set is from Tim Holtz. I colored his suit, vest and tie using the yellow, aqua and green Copic Markers. He looks very dapper to me. I stamped the sentiment in black on Crumb Cake. This card made me smile!

Paris is Always Good Idea The Paper Players Challenge PP732

April 6, 2025

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

The amazing Jan is our hostess this week and she has such a fun theme challenge for all of us! Who doesn't have dreams of traveling? I sure do--my bucket list is long!! Have fun and get creative and let us see what you have in mind for traveling!

I have always wanted to go to Paris and I am actually going in June. My dear friend is going with me so, I made this card for her. I had this pad of paper in my stash from a few years ago. I decided to make a slim line card with it. I cut a scalloped black border using a die from Pink Fresh Studio. The paper did all the work. The girl on her bike is stamped using the Technique Tuesday stamp -Belle on a Bike. I paper pieced her skirt and colored her with Copic Markers. I love when the paper does all the work!
