Paper Players #95 {Happy Birthday}


Happy Mother's Day! What a crazy week and a quick one too! The days are getting longer with daylight but somehow shorter on time? Am I crazy or does anyone else feel this way? Anyway, onto my post! Ann is our hostess for the Paper Players Challenge this week and it is a Colour Challenge and I am in LOVE with the fresh, bright colours! YUM! They match my blog!!!



I needed to ink up my Creative Elements stamp set which has not seen any ink for SUCH a long time. I love that floral image from it and the vines...oh so pretty! I stamped the butterfly in So Saffron (I actually do not own Daffodil Delight yet-GASP!) and fussy cut it! Then popped it up on a glue dot. Again I added the ribbon in the form of pennants at the bottom and used my favourite new sentiment stamp Perfectly Penned.


We hope that you will join the Paper Players Challenge this week!  Please be sure to visit the other DT Members to see their wonderful creations!

    This is so pretty Lesley! Love the way you've stamped the vines in both corners and the over-stamped sentiment is lovely! Way to use the ribbon as pennants too--love that!

    Oh what a great use of this stamp set-one I have yet to get but it is on my ever growing list:)Love how you cut out the butterfly and that gorgeous flower image just "pops". Really like how the ribbon is peaking out from under the main panel too. Fabulous card!
