It was another day that started out gloomy and turned bright and sunny by the afternoon! I got lots accomplished too, made a few cards, made a bunch of thank you cards for a friend, ran to the Post Office and had dinner with my Parents. We did another Wine Wednesday this week. Heather, Steph and I were joined by Taylor for a little while. Always love to get see the child! This morning I have a lot of planning to do, staying focused is the key! LOL!
One of my cards that I made yesterday is for this week’s Paper Players challenge…
I played with some more of my Simon Stamps! To create my background I used the Simon Says Stamp Waves Stencil along with my Stencil Brush and some Lake Shores Ink. The corners are rounded with my Corner Chomper and the panel is adhered to a Black panel that is then adhered to my card base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I die cut the Echo Park Picture Wheel Die from more Black and adhered it to the card with 3M Foam Tape. The feathers, leaves and greeting are from the Simon Says Stamp Oh Happy Day Photopolymer Stamp Set. I stamped the feathers in Teeny Bikini, the leaves in Jellybean and the greeting in Scuba. I used the Coordinating Happy Day Dies to cut them out. The leaves and feathers are adhered to each other, a piece of Hemptique Black Natural Hemp Twine is tied into a bow around the bottom and they are adhered to the picture wheel with E-Z Runner. For the greeting I used some more 3M Foam Tape. Just a few Recollections Enamel Dots complete the card! I still have a soft spot for some feathers and I love that picture wheel! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Players Sketch Challenge! Thanks so much for visiting today! Have an amazing Thursday! 🙂

Hi Justin:
I didn’t know there was a die that simulates the old View Master slide cards. Love it. Also nice to see you using some feathers again! LOL I love the Simon Says inks and they really do have some fabulous stamp sets. Great job as always.
The sun is brightly shining today and it is going to be in the low 70’s so I am going to get out and enjoy it. The rest of the week and weekend are back to cloudy, cool days if the weather people are right. The hubs is finally get to go to a cruise night with good weather. He’s a happy camper. Hopefully you will get to enjoy another Thirsty Thursday tonight. Love and hugs to you my friend. XXOO 🙂
Hello Grace!
I have the die sitting on one of the shelves and I forget it’s there! Love it! I have missed my feathers! I need some new ones! Thank you!
I have been outside whenever the sun has been around! It’s so nice! We only get a few days and then back to the dreariness. It’s all good! Hope hubs had a nice ride! Love and hugs to you too! XOXO 🙂
Very original design…..love the feathers and the picture wheel die mixed together. We are finally in early summer, about time.
Thank you Linda! I have missed my feathers! LOL! Glad that you are getting nice weather and I hope that you send it my way! 🙂
