The Paper Players #67- Colours from Jaydee

Happy Sunday everyone!  I have set up my blog to post today and I hope it has!  Hubby and I are on a two day getaway.  It is the Thanksgiving long weekend here in Canada.  I actually spent the last three days of the week at home, due to an eye infection.  But it seems to be better, thank goodness for eye drops!  I was starting to look a little scary and Halloween is still weeks away!  It isn't pretty!  This week at the Paper Players, Jaydee had a wonderful colour challenge for us!  I'll admit, my Mojo seems to be wacky these days, but I am happy with the card I created, I hope you are too!

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!

Paper Players #43 ~ CAS Sketch Challenge

This week at the Paper Players, Jaydee has designed a clean and simple sketch for you to try! I loved the sketch and decided to take my card tall instead of wide.  I asked Jaydee, and she said it was ok to do that!!!! Thanks Jaydee!

I have a whole pack of the Sweet Stitches Paper and I haven't really used it, so I got it out for this card!  I just love these sewing machines...this paper is really fun!  My colours are Daffodil Delight and Rose Red with a Garden Green Button.  As you can glimpse inside, I used some more paper on the inside of the card to finish it off.

The button is left over from my Christmas stash!  I threaded the button will a little piece of Whisper White paper, I love that trick!  The Rose Red Ribbon is from the Clearance rack, gotta love that!  The Punch is the decorative Label punch which is quickly becoming one of my favourites.

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you get the chance to head on over to the Paper Players Challenge Blog and join us for this sweet and simple sketch this week!

Stamping 411 and Pals Paper Arts

The Stamping 411 team and the Pals Paper Arts team both have a terrific challenge happening this week!  First I looked at the 411 sketch and thought, wow!  I need to try this.  So I went to work, sketching it out and trying to create a card to fit the cool design.  I inked up my new Four Frames stamp set again and also used some of my new Designer Paper called Paisley Petals.  I actually took my colour combo from the new designer paper.

The colours I chose are Cajun Craze, Marina Mist and Pear Pizzazz.  Not a usual colour choice for me but one that I am really happy with! This sketch really pushed me out of my comfort zone and I am not sure if I am sold on what I created, but that is probably because it is something different that my usual style.

Over at Pals Paper Arts, they are challenging us to use Punches!  Punches are my favourite tools, and I used a few on this card.

I used:

The Decorative Label Punch

The Itty Bitty Punch Pack

The Bird Punch

The Scallop Edge Border Punch

Thank you for stopping by!  I appreciate your comments so much!  I hope you enjoyed my creation and get the chance to get crafty yourself today!!!
