So Very Grateful The Paper Players Challenge PP664 Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC321

 October 29, 2023

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

I am the hostess this week at The Paper Players.  My Tic Tac Toe Board is so versatile and gives you the opportunity to get creative!   Have fun and show us some great designs!

This fantastic Color Challenge at Sunday Stamps  is perfect for all types of cards !  So many possibilities with this one!  I love this bright, happy color palette!

My card is created with a Bermuda Bay background.  I embossed the panel with a subtle embossing folder.  It adds so much textured.  I wrapped the panel with twine to add more texture.  I used a piece of watercolored paper and smooshed it with two colors of Distress ink and water.  It made a red/orange/yellow look.  I used the Oak Leaf stamp and die set from Neat & Tangled.  I stamped the panel with Versa Fine ink and heat embossed it with white embossing powder.  I then cut the leaves out with the die and cut two more leaves with Bermuda Bay for a background.  The sentiment is from the same stamp set.  I added orange enamel dots to complete my card.

Witches Gotta Stick Together The Paper Players Challenge PP663

October 22, 2023 

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

The fabulous Jaydee is our hostess this week and she has a fun Sketch Challenge for all of us!  This sketch is so versatile!  You can use it for any occasion.  So get creative and show us your ideas. 





My card is created on a white card base.  I added a piece of striped Halloween paper that I found in my stash.  Then I added a panel of black paper to match the sketch.  The white panel was sponged to create a spooky look for the sentiment.  I stamped the witch's shoes and fussy cut them.  They were colored with Copic Markers.  I added enamel dots and Wink of Stella for shine!

Thankful For You The Paper Players Challenge PP662

October 15, 2023  

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

The amazing Joanne is our hostess this week and she has a fabulous Clean and Simple Challenge for all of us!   The theme is "Signs of Fall"!  Oh, there are so many possibilities with this one.  Have fun and remember to keep it CAS! 




I added a Real Red base to my white card front.  I added a white panel that I dry embossed with an embossing folder.  The leaves are from a retired Stampin Up set "Vintage Leaves"  that I have had for years.  I love this set and still use it every year.  The leaves were stamped in Real Red, More Mustard  and Pumpkin Pie Inks.  I added a sentiment in brown ink.  Then I added a twine bow to complete my card.
