For A Special Teacher--PP #351

July 2, 2017



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

Our lovely Joanne from across the pond is our hostess this week.  She has a fantastic theme challenge for all of us.  Congratulations to graduates, test takers and teachers --- the "subject" of the week! 



Although school has been over for a month in Georgia, I realize many places are just getting out of school.  I already sent out all my graduation cards, but decided to make a teacher thank you to have when school starts again in August.  Teachers can never be thanked enough!



My card is created on a white card base.  I embossed a piece of Daffodil Delight card stock with an alphabet embossing folder.  I found a strip of DSP that had number words on it and added it across the embossed image.  The mason jar is heat embossed in white embossing powder and then I used an aqua painter and Broken China Distress ink to color the water.  I used a retired SU set for the jar.  "Perfectly Preserved" was a favorite set that I will always keep.  The jar cover was stamped on a scrap of polka dot paper and heat embossed in clear embossing powder.  The apples were stamped in red and green using the Reverse Confetti stamp set  All Apples and the matching dies were used to cut them out.   I added drops of Glossy Accents to look like water on the leaves, apples and on the jar.  Wink of Stella was added to the apples for shine.  


Don't forget to check out the fabulous inspirations from our design team and I hope that you will play along with our challenge this week.

Flying By To Say-- You are Just "Plane" Amazing! --PP #340

April 16, 2017

HAPPY EASTER to all of you that celebrate!  I hope you have a very lovely day!

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

The lovely LeAnne is our hostess this week.  Her challenge is CAS: "On the Go!  Please use a vehicle on your Clean and Simple card.  Remember to limit your layers and embellishments.  We can't wait to see what you create!  Have fun! 



My card is created on a white card base.  I used a blue and white polka dot background cut with the SugarPea Design Zig Zag Stitched dies.  I stamped the sentiment and plane from the Your Next Stamp Just Plane Amazing stamp set.  I used the matching dies to cut out the plane. The plane was colored with Copic Markers.  I cut the two clouds from the Mama Elephant Stitched Sky dies.  I sponged distress ink on each cloud. Wink of Stella and Glossy Accents were used on the plane.

Love Mail--PP330

February 5, 2017

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

I am happy to be the hostess this week.  Our theme challenge is, "Will You Be My Valentine"?  Make a Valentine for someone special to you.  It can be for a parent, partner, spouse, bf, gf, child, grandchild, neighbor or someone that makes your life happier.  Have fun!  We can't wait to see what you create!  



My card is created for my Sweetie!  I hope he will like it!




My card is created on a white card base.  I distressed the top part of the card with blue ink.  The two green panels were cut using the Lawn Fawn Hillside Border dies.  I inked the edges with Mowed Lawn Distress ink. I created the mailbox using the Lawn Fawn Happy Mail Die using Kraft paper and Early Expresso card stock for the post.  The little envelopes were made with a few scraps of Valentine paper using the same die set.  The envelopes actually open!  
















The two little birds were stamped from the Love Letters stamp set from Lawn Fawn.  I colored them with Copic Markers.  I stamped the sentiment using different stamp sets.  "Love mail" is from My Creative Time Puffy Hearts Just For You.  I just had this Happy Valentine's Day in my stash.  Sorry, not sure where it is from.   I added three small red hearts for fun.  Wink of Stella was added on the birds for shine.
