Paper Players 334

Guess what?! It’s Winter here again! Why won’t he stay away?! We are having some snow this morning, over it people! But it is Friday! So at least that’s good! I had a solo day at the Store yesterday. My Parents came by for a visit and we FaceTimed with my Aunt Shirley in England. Jan also stopped by to make the Pop-Up Card from last week’s class. After work I had dinner and then headed over to Heather’s for Thirsty Thursday. Stephanie was there and Brian stopped by too. Hopefully the roads won’t be bad and I’ll be able to get to the Store today. Ugh! Enough with the snow already! 😀

I did have a little crafty time at the Store and I made a card for this week’s Paper Players challenge…

I began by stamping the beautiful image from The Ton Haute Wedding Dress Photopolymer Stamp Set In Memento Tuxedo Black and using my Copics to color her in. I cut the image out with my scissors and then ran a Memento Tuxedo Black Pen around the edges. To give it some sparkle I used my Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Brush Pen to give a nice sheen to the dress. The background is a piece of Solar White 80lb that I heat embossed the Hero Arts Confetti Bold Prints Background in Hero Arts White Satin Pearl Embossing Powder. I added some Ballet Slippers Ink to the background with a Mini Ink Blending Tool. A strip of paper from the Lawn Fawn Watercolor Wishes Petite Paper Pad goes down the left side. I adhered the main image to the card with 3D Foam Squares. My greeting is from the Concord & 9th Perfectly Penned Photopolymer Stamp Set and is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black onto another piece of Solar White 80lb that I cut out with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Ovals Stackables Lawn Cuts and that too is adhered with 3D Foam Squares. Just a few Pretty Pink Posh Sequins from the Sweet Pea Mix and the card is done! I have liked that stamp since I first saw it and I couldn’t hold out any longer! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Players Challenge! Thank you for stopping by! Have a fun Friday! 🙂

  1. Justin! This is an absolutely breathtakingly beautiful card! Your coloring is fantastic and the Wink of Stella on the gown is such a perfect touch. The white pearl embossing on the base white card stock puts this one over the top in gorgeousness (is that a word?)! LOL Needless to say I really love this one.

    Glad you had a good day at the store yesterday. Don’t worry about the snow – it will disappear quickly now that it’s March and don’t forget we will be gifted with an additional hour of daylight in a few days. You have yourself a Fun Friday my friend……………..hey, it’s time for you to catch up on your comments before you get overwhelmed! Love and hugs to you! XXOO 🙂

    1. Thank you Grace! I do love that stamp, good for anything girly, not just weddings! I love that White Satin Pearl Powder!
      We had a lot of snow actually but the sun is shining now! It didn’t stick to the roads so it wasn’t bad. I hate when i let the comments got for so long! I read them as they come in but sometimes I have too much to do! Love and hugs to you! XOXO 🙂

  2. Beautiful card Justin!! Love the way the pink fades out at the bottom. The sequins and wink of stella are the perfect touch. She looks like a princess.

  3. Love this beautiful card, Justin. I noticed your coloring right away and what a great job you did of ombre. It’s perfect for a Sweet 16 birthday. Have a great day.

    1. Thanks HJ! I had fun trying to get the markers to look like that! First time doing it with Copics! Hope you are enjoying your day! 🙂

  4. Beautiful card, love the dress, very elegant. I agree, tired of the snow! We had at least four inches last night, still snowing, yuk! We have at least four feet in the yard, skiers are happy though! Fresh powder, the hill will be busy this weekend, wish they would stop praying to the snow gods though,lol

    1. Thank you Lynne! Love that stamp! I’m so over the Winter! I need Spring ASAP! Four feet!! That’s crazy! The snow should stay in the mountains for the skiers! Not here in the cities! LOL! 🙂
