Paper Players Challenge #50-Kind Thanks

Lobster!  Yum!  Last night I was fortunate to be invited to Lobster Fest and I had a great time! There was fresh lobster, yummy summer salads and a rockin' band!  Corey and I danced, I boogied with my father-in-law Glen and tore up the floor with one of Corey's workmates!  It was really a good night!!!  The dancing helped burn off those garlic butter calories!!!


Today I have a card I would like to share that I created for the Paper Players Challenge, hosted by the lovely LeAnne.  She is challenging us to make a thank you card or project.  I decided to go Vintage with my card and used the "Elements of Style" stamp set that is one of my favourite SU! sets!!!  We are also welcoming three new Guest Designers to our team: Cindy Beach, Lauri Ingram and Sandra Appozardi. Welcome ladies!!


I used my trusty crimper to make a waffle effect on my cardstock after I stamped the floral image in Stazon and coloured my flowers with a Bashful Blue and a Marina Mist Stampin' Write Marker.  The ribbon is the Marina Mist Satin ribbon, which is being retired. I also used a Kiwi Kiss button to pick up the green leaves I coloured in the image.


My butterfly is from the "Strength and Hope" set. I stamped it in Night of Navy Ink on Bashful Blue cardstock then cut it out with my snips.  I used the sentiment from the "Bold Blossom" set and my new 2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch.  The scallop edge punch was used to create the pretty edge on the Night of Navy Paper and I wheeled the Music Notes small wheel onto the Marina Mist card base.

We hope that you will join the Paper Players Challenge this week!  Please be sure to visit the other DT Members to see their wonderful creations!

PPC Specialty Challenge #6- Easter


Hello Stampin' Friends!!!  It is my second week as a DT member over at Picture Perfect Creations!  I am enjoying designing ahead for the many colour challenges that are coming up and this week is a Specialty Challenge!  The theme is Easter.

I have lots of different Easter Stamps but I wanted to use a new one I got with my last Stampin' Up Order called "Something to Celebrate".  I married it with the "Bold Blossom" stamp set from the current mini-catalogue. 


The colours I chose this week are Peach Parfait, Pear Pizzaz and Whisper White.  I actually designed this card for a workshop I held a couple of weeks ago!!!  I love Peach Parfait, it is such a nice alternative to orange!  The little flowers are punched out with my 3/4" circle punch and I had to add some bling to each one.

Come on over to Picture Perfect Creations and join us for a little Easter card making challenge.  I am looking forward to visiting your blog!

Smiles,
Lesley
