Not To Get Carried Away--PP #283, GDP #023

February 21, 2016

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

 This week the amazingly talented Joanne is our hostess.  She has a Clean and Simple Challenge for all of us!  Up, Up and Away!  We can't wait to see what you create!   The Global Design Project Challenge is also featuring balloons this week, so I am adding this to their challenge.  







My base card is Smokey Slate.  The top layer is Neenah White Solar paper trimmed with a My Favorite Things die.  The stamp set is from WPlus9-Unforgettable.  I stamped the little elephant, the sentiment and balloons with Memento Black ink.  The balloons were colored with Copic Markers.  I added a black and white Baker's Twine bow and clear sparkling sequins from Pretty Pink Posh for fun.  Wink of Stella was added for shine.

Thanks A Bunch--Sparkle & Shine Challenge

November 1, 2015

 I can not believe it is November 1st!!!!  This year has flown by!  I sure wish I could make time slow down.  SO much to do, so little time!

  It's time for a new challenge at Sparkle & Shine!  We are excited you are here and hope that are inspired! For this challenge, please use the photo inspiration below when creating your projects. You can create in any way that you like as long as we can see the inspiration in your design. 

For this challenge we are sponsored by the amazing Pretty Pink Posh! Her shop contains tons of beautiful sequins all colors and sizes along with amazing dies to help you create! The winner of our challenge will receive a $25 gift card to her store!



I had such a great time creating this   I love, love, love the jewel tone colors.  First, I used watercolor paper and created the first layer using a blending tool and Twisted Citron (Tim Holtz) Distress ink.  The next layer was created using Wilted Violet Distress Ink and then embossed it using the Taylored Expressions-Weathered Embossing Folder. The sentiment is stamped using Altenew Label Love stamp set and Momento Black ink.  

I created the flowers by coloring sheets of watercolor paper with the different Distress inks.  (Peacock Feathers, Cracked Pistachio, Blueprint Sketch and Twisted Citron)  I stamped the flowers with Momento black ink using the WPLUS9-Doddle Buds set on these sheets that I created.  I used the WPLUS9-Doodle Buds Dies to cut out each flower and leaves.  Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins were added for sparkle.  Wink of Stella was added on the flowers for shine! 





Hope you are able to join us in this challenge. Check out all of the beautiful cards from the design team on the blog here!

Please leave a comment if you have any questions or thoughts on my card. I love reading your comments. As always, the products used will be listed and linked below.

Hope You Have A Beautiful Day--CMCC No 85

August 22, 2015

 Today I am playing along with the wonderful Design Team at Colour Me...!  I adore the color combination for their challenge and knew what I wanted to create.  

My base card is white card stock (5 1/2 X 4 1/4).  The next layer is cut with a stitched rectangle die.  I added Zig Clean Marker to the top portion and squirted it with water to create my background.  After it dried, I added the sentiment from the WPlus9 Doodle Buds stamp set with black Versa Fine ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.   I watered down some black ombre ink and flicked a few ink splatters on the background to bring in more gray.  Fun foam was added to the back of the watercolor panel to make it have dimension off the base card.


The flowers were stamped with Momento Black ink on water color paper.  I colored them with Zig Clean Brush Markers and cut them out with the coordinating dies.  I know gray leaves may seem odd, but they worked with the palette.  


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

 Wishing you a beautiful day!  

 HUGS!
