Paper Players #105 and Sneak Peek

Hello everyone! How was your weekend? Mine was good. I got most of what I wanted to do accomplished. I also went into the city yesterday to see some friends and drop off a Stampin’ Up! order. The best part was driving in and back with the top down in the car! 🙂

Today’s post is for this weeks Paper Players Challenge. This week Jaydee has given us this sketch challenge…

A nice simple layout to work with. The base of my card is Cherry Cobbler Card Stock. I embossed a piece of Very Vanilla with the new Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder* and backed it with a piece of Garden Green. The tree is cut with my Paper Trimmer and mounted to the card. I embossed piece of Very Vanilla with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions Embossing Folder* and adhered to a piece of Garden Green with some SNAIL. The ornaments are from the Merry Minis Stamp Set* and are stamped in Cherry Cobbler. I used the coordinating new Merry Minis Punch Pack* to punch them out. The circles behind them are form the Be Of Good Cheer Designer series Paper and are punched out with the 3/4″ Circle Punch. I adhered the ornaments to the circles with Mini Glues Dots and the circles are adhered to the tree with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I punched the star out with the Merry Minis Punch Pack* from a piece of new Champagne Glimmer Paper*. For the circle to the left I used a piece of Vellum Card Stock with the Delicate Doilies Large Sizzlit Die. The new 1 1/4″ Scallop Circle Punch* is used to punch out a piece of Garden Green. The Cherry Cobbler Circle is punched out with the 3/4″ Circle Punch and the tree with the Merry Mini Punch Pack*. The greeting across the top is from the new Border Banter Stamp Set* and is stamped in Garden green and mounted to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I hope that you are liking the new items from the Holiday Catalog and that you enjoyed today’s card for this week’s Paper Players Challenge. Thank you very much for stopping by and have an great day!

Paper Players #104

Good Monday morning to you all. How was everyone’s weekend? Mine was great! A nice long weekend in Vermont with friends was just what I needed to re-charge the batteries a little. I had a nice ride home yesterday, I didn’t hit too much traffic. I was glad to see my parents, daughter and Winston when I got home! Thanks to Susan, Mina and Kim!

Today’s post is for this week’s Paper Players Challenge. This week LeAnne has given us a clean and simple wordsmith challenge…

I have been meaning to use some of my neglected colors a little more so I used some Sahara Sand and paired it with Primrose Petals. I really like the two colors together, they compliment each other nicely. The base of the card is Sahara Sand and I stamped it with the Parlor Prints Background Stamp in Primrose Petals. I used the Floral Frames Framelits Dies to cut out a piece of Primrose Petals Card Stock and adhered it to the card with SNAIL. The stamped image is from the From My Heart Stamp Set and is also cut out with the Floral Frames Framelits Dies. I think that it fits perfectly inside! I mounted that to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then I used some Sticky Strip to attach a piece of Primrose Petals Stitched Satin Ribbon across the bottom and then used the “fork method” to tie the bow since I am bow challenged and used my Paper Snips to flag the ends. The tiny heart is punched out using the Owl Builder Punch from a piece of the new Champagne Glimmer Paper* from the 2012 Holiday Catalog and a small (really small!) piece of Stampin’ Dimensional adheres it to the stamped image. I used the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack to punch out another piece and a Mini Glue Dot to adhere it to the middle of the bow. I hope that you enjoyed this week’s Paper Players Challenge card and that you are inspired to use some of your more neglected colors. Thank you so much for checking in and have a wonderful Monday! 🙂

Paper Player #103 and Sneak Peek

Hello everyone and welcome to Monday. I had a very nice weekend and got most of what I wanted to get accomplished done. There is always something that I don’t get to but there’s always tomorrow! I hope that you all had a nice weekend and the heat is finally supposed to break today which is welcome after the scorcher of a weekend that we had here on Long Island.

Today’s card is for this weeks Paper Players Challenge. This week we have a color challenge from Anne Marie…

I thought about doing a nice summer themed card but I really wanted to use some new stuff so I did a Christmas card. I like to think of it as my Christmas in Florida card! The base of the card is Calypso Coral Card Stock. The center panel is embossed with the new Holiday Frame Textured Impressions Embossing Folder* in Daffodil Delight. The top and the bottom have a piece of Lucky Limeade that I used the Finishing Touches Edgelits Dies on and then adhered to the back before I mounted it to the card. The images in the middle are from the new Joyous Celebrations Stamp Set* that coordinates nicely with the embossing folder. I stamped the oval image in Lucky Limeade and punched it out with the Extra Large Oval Punch. I stamped the joy in Calypso Coral and cut it out with my Paper Snips along with the bow at the top. They are all mounted to each other and the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The four ornament images in the corners are from the new Merry Minis Stamp Set* and are stamped in Lucky Limeade and punched out with the new coordinating Merry Minis Punch Pack*. They too are mounted to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a small Basic Jewels Pearl to the center of each of the ornaments and the center of the bow. It’s definitely a different color combination for a holiday card but if I lived someplace warm I would think that it would be fitting! I hope that you enjoyed this weeks Paper Players Challenge card and thank you as always for visiting. Have a great Monday! 🙂

Paper Players #102

Hello everyone and happy Monday! How was everyone’s weekend? Mine was good, I got to see some friends, craft and my brother and his fiancé picked up the Wedding invitations! I’m so happy they are finished and that they were happy with them. Next up… thank you cards! 🙂

Today’s post is for this week’s Paper Players Challenge. This week we have a theme challenge, Christmas in July…

I was very happy to get to use some of my new Christmas stamps. The base of my card is Cherry Cobbler Card Stock. I embossed a piece of Very Vanilla with the Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and adhered it to the front of the card. The greeting at the top is from the Cheerful Christmas Stampin’ Around Wheel. I used the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack to punch out the letters. Then I used the Ticket Duo Builder Punch with Gumball Green Card Stock and adhered the letters to it with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The middle is a piece of Cherry Cobbler cut out with the Labels Collection Framelits Dies. I stamped the image from the Chock-Full of Cheer Stamp Set in Gumball Green and punched it our with the 1 3/4″ Circle Punch. The ornament loop is stamped in VersaMark and the heat embossed with Pewter Stampin’ Emboss Powder. In the middle is a Vintage Faceted Designer Button with a piece of Cherry Cobbler punched out with the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and a Basic Jewels Rhinestone adhered in the center. The whole thing is mounted to the label with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The paper bow at the top was also stamped in Cherry Cobbler using the Cheerful Christmas Wheel and cut and assembled with Sticky Strip. Another Rhinestone is adhered in the middle. The bottom image is also from the Chock-Full of Cheer Stamp Set and is stamped in Gumball Green. I used still more Rhinestones in the middle of each image and mounted it to a piece of Gumball Green Card Stock and still more Stampin’ Dimensionals adhere it to the card. I’m loving the brighter Gumball Green for the holiday’s this year. I hope that you enjoyed today’s Paper Players Challenge card and that you are inspired to make some holiday cards too. Thank you so much for visiting and have a great day!

Paper Players #101

Good morning everyone! How was your weekend? Mine was very nice. My friend Kim was out for the weekend, the party was great on Saturday and yesterday it was beautiful outside. It rained a little here last night and looks like rain today too but all in all it was a great weekend. Today’s post is for this weeks Paper Players Challenge. This week Lesley has given us this sketch…

My card starts with a base of Certainly Celery Card Stock. In the middle is a piece of Subtles Collection Designer Series Paper and on either side I used the Large Scallop Edgelits Die with some Rose Red Card Stock. The stamped images are from the Stippled Blossoms Stamp Set, a 2 Step Stamp Set, and are stamped in Pretty In Pink and Rose Red for the flower and the leaves are stamped in Certainly Celery and Wild Wasabi. I cut both images out with my handy Paper Snips and mounted them on Stampin’ Dimensionals to a cutout from the Delicate Doilies Large Sizzlits Die. The band of Wild Wasabi Card Stock across the middle of the card is embossed with the Delicate Designs Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Finally the greeting is from the Sweet Essentials Stamp Set, stamped in Rose Red, I punched it out with the Modern Label Punch and then punched a piece of Rose Red Card Stock with the same punch and cut it half and adhered it to the back. The color combination is nice and bright and cheery and the greeting makes the card perfect for a birthday. I hope that you enjoyed this weeks Paper Players Challenge card. Thank you very much for visiting and have a great Monday!

Paper Players – Happy 100th Challenge!

Good morning everyone! I hope that you all had a nice weekend. I had a very nice weekend. I spent a good part of it making the wedding invitations for my brother’s wedding. My daughter Taylor was here for most of the weekend with me and she helped a lot. I also went to lunch on Father’s Day with my parents, brother, his fiancé and my daughter. The weather was perfect here too, all in all it was a pretty awesome weekend! Today’s post is for the Paper Players who are celebrating their 100th challenge this week! Wow! 100 challenges, that’s pretty impressive!

This week you got to go through the archives and choose a previous challenge to base your card on. I chose challenge #88…

I started with a base of Pool Party Card Stock. Using my Big Shot I ran a piece of So Saffron Card Stock through it using the Fancy Fan Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The stamped images are from the You’re Amazing Stamp Set and the ballon is stamped in Not Quite Navy and cut out with my Paper Snips. I mounted it to a background of Pool Party that is embossed with the Stripes Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and backed with a piece of Not Quite Navy. They are adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the winner tickets in Pool Party and punched them out with the Ticket Duo Builder Punch. The happy birthday is also from the You’re Amazing Stamp Set and is stamped in Not Quite Navy and I used the circle from the Itty Bitty Shaped Punch Pack to create the ticket corners. Behind that is a piece of Pool Party that I embossed using the Delicate Designs Textured Impressions Embossing Folders. Along the bottom edge is a piece of Not Quite Navy that I punched with the Scallop Edge Border Punch. For a little something extra to help the Paper Players celebrate I made a matching box. The box is made uses the Simply Scored Scoring Tool which makes 3D projects a breeze. The paper bow was inspired by the cover of the 2012-2013 Annual Catalog. I really like them and I actually made a few of them and I’ll post them later in the week. It’s 1/2″ strips of Pool Party Card Stock and I used the happy birthday from the From My Heart Stamp Set to stamp the strips. I then flagged the ends of the bottom two strips and curled the top two pieces and formed some circles. It’s all stacked and adhered with Sticky Strip. The other images are from the same set I used on the card, You’re Amazing. I hope that you like this weeks Paper Players 100th Challenge card and box. Congratulations again the fabulous ladies over there and here’s to 100 more challenges! Have a great day! 🙂

So, head on back and leave a comment. The winner will be announced Friday morning! Now, for today’s post I have made another one of my 3D Window Cards for this week’s Paper Players. Lesley has given us the following color challenge…

I started with a piece of Very Vanilla Card Stock cut to 12″ x 5 1/2″. If you want the full instructions on how to make the card contact me and I’ll be happy to send them to you. The background is a piece of Melon Mambo Card Stock that is embossed with the Argyle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The stamp is the World’s Greatest Wood Mount that I stamped twice in Lucky Limeade and cut out with my Paper Snips and then cut out the “World’s” and mounted it on Stampin’ Dimensionals. On the next layer I stamped the elephant from the You’re Amazing Stamp Set in Basic Grey and cut him out with my Paper Snips and stamped his hat again in Melon Mambo and cut that out and mounted it to him with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The friend is from the Family Reunion Stamp Set and is also stamped in Basic Grey and backed with a piece of Basic Grey Card Stock. I stamped the small ticket image, also from the You’re Amazing Stamp Set, in Basic Grey, Melon Mambo and Lucky Limeade quite a few times and punched them out with the Ticket Duo Punch. I then used some Two-Way Glue to adhere them around the frame of Crumb Cake Card Stock. I love the color combination and the You’re Amazing Stamp Set is quickly becoming one of my favorites! I hope that you enjoyed today’s card and thank you, as always, for checking in. Have a great day!

Paper Players #98

Hello everyone and a good Monday morning to you. I hope that you all had a great weekend, I know I did. I had two meetings with friends about making invitations and my brother and his fiancée stopped by and picked their wedding invitations. I had a nice crafty Sunday! Today’s card is for this weeks Paper Players Challenge. This weeks host is Jaydee and she has given us a theme challenge…

Summertime! As soon as I saw it I thought what says summertime better than a pinwheel! The base of the card is Daffodil Delight Card Stock. I ran a piece of Real Red Card Stock through the Big Shot using the Perfect Polkadots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The pinwheel is made from a 3 1/4″ square piece of Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper. I used a Brights Collection 3/16″ Brad to secure all of the wings to the center. A piece of wooden dowel makes the handle and I tied a piece of Island Indigo Ruffled Ribbon to the middle. The greeting is from the Fabulous Phrases Stamp Set and is stamped in Rich Razzleberry. I used the new Bitty Banners Framelits Dies to cut it out. I adhered everything to the card with some Mini Glue Dots. It’s a relatively simple card to make and I love all of the bright colors.  I hope that you enjoyed today’s card and thank for stopping by. Have a great Monday! 🙂

Paper Players #97 and Summer Smooches

Good morning everyone! I hope that everyone had a safe and happy Memorial Day Weekend. Mine was good, I went to a BBQ and got to see a lot of my friends so that was pretty awesome. Thanks to Brian & Kim for hosting and for the delicious food. 🙂

Today’s card is for this weeks Paper Players Challenge. LeAnne has given us this sketch to work with…

In the spirit of the fun weekend that I had I decided to do a bright and colorful card. The base of my card is Daffodil Delight Card Stock. I took two pieces of Summer Smooches Designer Series Paper** and used those for the top part of the background. The bottom half is Bashful Blue and is embossed with the Perfect Polkadots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I used my Circle Scissor Pro*** to cut out a piece of Tangerine Tango Card Stock and another piece of Summer Smooches DSP** for the center. The butterfly is cut from the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz L Die and the Beautiful Wings Embosslit. The body of the butterfly is a paper bead also made from Summer Smooches DSP** and coated with Crystal Effects, it’s adhered with Mini Glue Dots. For the antennae I used a piece of Hemp Twine***. The flower is a 1″ Circle Punch of Tempting Turquoise and the middle circle is part of the eye from the Owl Builder Punch in Island Indigo. The leaves are made using the 1/2″ Circle punch and reinserting the paper to make the leaf shape. The greeting is form the Fabulous Phrases Stamp Set and is stamped in Rich Razzleberry. The buds are punched form Rich Razzleberry using the small circle from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and the leaves are Lucky Limeade and are also made with the same punch and technique mentioned above. The greeting is adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the buds with Mini Glue Dots. I think the bright colors fit in perfectly with weather that we had out here on Long Island this weekend. I hope that you enjoy this weeks Paper Players Challenge card and thank you so much for stopping by. Have a great day! 🙂

Paper Players #96 and Sneak Peek

Happy Monday morning to everyone! I had a very nice day yesterday. I ran some errands, enjoyed the beautiful weather and got to play with my stamp stuff too! Today’s card is for this weeks Paper Players. I was honored that I was Anne Marie’s Pick of the Week for last weeks Challenge! You can see the post here and visit the Paper Player site here. This week we are asked to use polkadots…

So I did just that, and a lot of them! The base of the card is Chocolate Chip Card Stock. I ran a piece of Cherry Cobbler Card Stock through my Big Shot using the Perfect Polkadots Texture Impressions Embossing Folder. The tiered cake image is from the Make A Cake* Stamp Set. The cake is stamped in Chocolate Chip and the flags and butterflies are stamped in Cherry Cobbler. I used the new Bitty Banners Framelits Dies* to cut out the smaller banners in Chocolate Chip and cut them in half with my Paper Snips and adhered them to the back of the Cherry Cobbler frame with SNAIL. To the back of that I added a piece of Chocolate Chip cut 1/8″ smaller than usual and offset it and adhered it to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. A piece of Chocolate Chip 1/2 Inch Scallop Dots Ribbon make the perfect item to attach the greeting that is from the Itty Bitty Banners* Stamp Set and is stamped in Cherry Cobbler and cut out with the Bitty Banners Framelits Dies*. I love the rich color combination, you can almost taste the chocolate and smell the cherry cobbler! Thank you for stopping by and thanks to the Paper Players for their great challenges every week. Have an awesome day! 🙂
