Well hello Thursday! One day closer to the weekend! My Wednesday was really good! I got my Notions Order at the Stamp, Ink, Paper Store, most of it was supplies for upcoming classes and some goodies for me to play with! I got that all checked in a put out. Renee had her all occasions card class and there were people in and out all day. I managed to get my card for today done at the store again! After I left the store I headed straight over to Heather’s and we ran to BJ’s. We both had a few things to pick up, I needed stuff to bring to work and Heather had to get some goodies for tomorrow night. We dropped my stuff off at my house on the way back to her place. She made me dinner when we got back and then we sat outside and binge watched YouTube! Not a bad way to spend an evening at all! Today I have to make sure that I finalize all of my orders for the new Holiday goodies! Can’t wait to get them in!
The card that I have to share with you today is for this week’s Paper Players challenge…
The base is the usual Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I used the Hero Arts Forest Floor Bold Pints Background Stamp and Altenew Soft Lilac Ink to stamp a piece of Solar White 110lb. From a piece of Black 110lb and Gold Mirror Card I cut two strips and added a flag to the left sides before adhering them under the stamped panel which is adhered to the card with Fun Foam and E-Z Runner. Next up I used the Spellbinders Triple Tear Nestabilities Dies to cut out another piece of Gold Mirror Card and that is adhered to the card with Dot Runner and Foam Tape. My flower and leaves are from the Altenew Golden Garden Photopolymer Stamp Set. I stamped the outlines in Altenew Jet Black, the flower in Buttercream and the leaves in Frayed Leaf Crisp Ink. They are cut out with the Coordinating Dies and adhered to the card with Multi-Matte Medium and Foam Tape. My greeting is from the Altenew Sentiments & Quotes Photopolymer Stamp Set and is stamped in Jet Black. I cut it out with one of the dies from the Spellbinders Hipster 1 Die D-Lites. It’s adhered to the card with Foam Tape and the card is finished! I know and you all know how much I love that Gold Mirror Card, it just adds so much and the Altenew Flowers are definitely a favorite too! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Players sketch challenge! I appreciate your visit and I wish you all a lovely Thursday! 🙂

Justin,
Beautiful!!! Love the gold and the flower is so elegant. Just love it all!
Thank you so much Gerri! Have a super day! 🙂
Good Morning Justin!
It must be wonderful to surround yourself with all these new goodies and get to play with whatever you want while at “work”! LOL Fun card today and, of course, my favorite part is the gold mirror paper…………….bet you already knew that.
Still way too hot for me here. Hope the company arriving today doesn’t want to do a lot of the “touristy” stuff as I would rather stay in the air conditioned house and literally just “chill”. LOL You have yourself a terrific thirsty Thursday my friend. Love & Hugs, XXOO 🙂
Good morning Grace!
It really is a fun job, I won’t lie! It’s not all play though! LOL! I really am completely obsessed with that Gold Mirror Card, just love the little extra it give to the card!
Sorry, Summer is my favorite season and I do enjoy the heat! I know that you are not a fan but it will be cool again before you know it! I hope that you get your wish and can stay in and “chill” today too! Enjoy your day! Love and hugs back at ya! XOXOXO 🙂
Beautiful card and great take on the challenge sketch. I love that pretty flower and it has a die!! And, of course, the gold mirror paper adds a true pop. Stay cool in this heat wave and have a great day.
Thank you HJ! I love those flowers, so loose and sketchy! Everything is better with a die! Can’t get enough of that Gold Mirror Card! I am in the store where it is chilly! I have to go outside and thaw every once in a while! LOL! You have a super day! 🙂
Very nice card! I love the white space.
Binge watching YouTube is the most horrible thing if you are trying to be productive for sure. I mean how many videos of puppies yawning do I need to see! I can’t stop it!
Thank you very much Ricky! I needed a nice clean card after yesterday’s purple one!
YouTube definitely doesn’t help with productivity but it’s needed every once in a while! I am into Troy Miller big time, he makes me smile! Enjoy your day!! 🙂
Well, we can never have enough goodies right? This card is another winner, I love the flower.
No! I couldn’t agree more Linda!! Thank you!! Hope you have a fantastic day! 🙂
This is beautiful, Justin! The subtle colors paired with the gold are just awesome! Thanks for making my sketch look great!
Thank you very much LeAnne!! Thank you for such an awesome sketch and for making me your Headliner! What an honor! I hope that you are enjoying your weekend! 🙂

Thank you so much El! 🙂
