It's Your Birthday! Go Wild! Paper Players Challenge PP526

 Jan. 31, 2021


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

It's Tic Tac Toe Week and the Lovely Laurie is our hostess this week.  I love these boards because the variety of card is always amazing!  Have fun! 



My card is created using the first row:  Die-Cut, Animal and Scene. 


My card is created for a special little girl that loves giraffes and purple.  I used a white card base and added the purple sunrise using a cover panel.  I cut the same sunrise in orange and paper pieced the rays into the purple background.  (Sorry, I don't know where I got this die).  I also added an orange sunburst in the center.  The giraffe is created using the MFT Joyful Giraffe Die.  I added some Vintage Ink to shade the giraffe and a white gel pen for the dot in the eye.  I also added Wink of Stella for shine.  The sentiment is from the MFT Giraffe Greetings stamp set.  I think she will love her birthday card.

I Just Love You! Paper Players Challenge PP525 Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC249

 Jan. 24, 2021

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

The amazing Joanne is the hostess at The Paper Players and she has a very fun sketch challenge for all of us!  The sketch is a simple one, but feel free to interpret the shapes any way you choose!  Oh, I just think that makes it so much fun! 

The Sunday Stamps Color Challenge is fabulous and it paired perfectly with the card I wanted to create!   I love this great color combo!  
 
Have fun and get creative with your projects! 

                                                                                Use a Minimum of 3 colors


My card is created on a Basic Gray background.  I added a Cherry Cobbler layer and cut it with a scalloped die.  The Very Vanilla panel was embossed with an embossing folder.  It reminded me of a warm winter sweater or scarf.  The little snowman was stamped using the Honey Bee Stamps Snow Buddies.  I just love this set and I see it is retiring.  That makes me sad because I just adore this stamp set.  I colored him with Copic Markers and added ear muffs and a scarf using the same stamp set and matching dies.  The sentiment is stamped in black.

Hey Sunshine! Tic Tac Toe Challenge #tttc097

Jan. 21, 2021


It's time for a new challenge at the Tic Tac Toe Challenge!

We hope you will play along with our new board! 



I used the top row to complete my card:  Flowers, Twine/Ribbon, Pink


My card is created on a white card base.  I added a hot pink layer cut with a scalloped die from Sugar Pea Designs.  I stamped the background using the  Sunflower Background by Simon Says Stamp.  I used black ink.  I added a twine bow and stamped the sentiment in black ink.  The sentiment is from a retired MFT Pure Innocence stamp set.  



Please stop by and see all the fabulous cards by the Design Team.  There is so much inspiration!

We hope you will play along with us this week!
