Paper Players 336

Well, it was back to Winter here again yesterday! We had chilly temps and lots of wind! I appreciate the tastes of Spring but I really would prefer that it stick around! I had a very busy day at the Store. I did manage to get a lot done and most of it was while I was multi-tasking which never usually goes well! LOL! I made four cards and got a few orders together. After work I came home and spent some time with Daniel. We had to go down in the basement with the flashlight and wander around! He’s such a funny little man! Heather came by around 7:00 and I helped her with her passport form and she helped me with my shredding! We ran to BJ’s and then it was time to call it a night! Tonight I’ll be heading into Manhattan to go and see play with my friend Jim, should be a great evening! 😀

Two of the cards that I made yesterday were requested by a friend and I’m sharing them with you today for this week’s Paper Players challenge…

For the first one I used the Lawn Fawn Critters Ever After Photopolymer Stamp Set. The images are stamped in Jet Black and colored in with Copics. They are cut out with the Coordinating Dies. To create my clouds I used the Lawn Fawn Puffy Cloud Borders to cut out some Solar White 80lb and adhered them to a card base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. On the bottom one I stamped the Birthday from the Lawn Fawn Let’s Bokeh and the Little One from the Lawn Fawn Little Bundle Photopolymer Stamp Sets in Jet Black and adhered the cloud with 3D Foam Squares. My happy is from the Happy, Happy, Happy Photopolymer Stamp Set and is stamped in Lobster and cut out with the Coordinating Die, it’s adhered to the cloud with Multi-Matter Medium. I added the castle and the unicorn with more 3D Foam Squares and the card is done!

For the second card I used the Lawn Fawn Elphie Selfie Photopolymer Stamp Set. The images are stamped in Jet Black and again colored in with Copics, the Coordinating Dies cut them out. The Stitched Hillside Borders cut out a piece of Herb Garden and the Little Picket Fence Border cuts out some Solar White 80lb. I adhered them to a piece of Moonstone and then adhered that to a card base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. The greetings are from the same sets as the first card with the happy stamped in Bubblegum. The stamped and colored images are adhered to the card with 3D Foam Squares and again, the card is done!

I didn’t add any sequins or other embellishments, the cards are to celebrate two one year old girl’s birthdays! I hope that you like my two cards for this week’s Paper Players challenge! I thank you so much for coming by today! Have a totally awesome Thursday! 🙂

  2. These are totally cute cards, Justin. I love the scenes you have made for both and that the sets have dies to make it so easy. Have a great day!

  3. Hi Justin:

    It’s back to super cold here too so don’t feel alone! I see today you made two cards that would be perfect for Tristan when her birthdays roll around. Now, you need to save them with Daniel’s cards. Just pick up a little basket and put them aside for the special days. AND, I love them both – perfect for a little princess.

    So, you get to go to Manhattan and see a play tonight. Which one are you going to see and I do expect a full review of it tomorrow. That way I know whether it is a play I might want to catch or definitely not want to see when I’m in the City LOL. Hey, I need to get together on the phone with you to talk about my orders. I won’t be home today so I need to know when a good time to touch base with you is. Meanwhile – stay warm and have yourself a Tremendous Thursday. Love & Hugs to you my friend. XXOO 🙂

    1. Hello Grace!
      I actually made these two cards for Jim! He asked for two 1st birthday cards for little girls along with two confirmation cards! Thank you! I’m happy that you like them!
      We had a lovely evening in the city and the play was funny! It was great to get to speak to you and get all of your orders straightened out! I hope that you had a good Thursday! Love and hugs to you! XOXO 🙂
