Paper Players Theme Challenge #98, Just US Girls and Dynamic Duos


Sunday! It is time for the Paper Players Challenge! This week our hostess is Jaydee and she has challenged us to make a card representing Summer! Summer means sailing to me, being on the water enjoying fishing and soaking up the sun (with sunscreen on of course!) 


I decided to use the colours at Dynamic Duos this week and the sketch at Just US Girls to create a masculine card for my father in-law, who loves sailing with us!  


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!

The Paper Players #54-Christmas in July


This week at the Paper Players, Jaydee is challenging us to go "Christmas"!  So I was looking through my stash of Christmas stamps, trying to decide what to use when I came across this "Best Dad Ever" set.  Then I thought of all the tacky ties that show up at Christmas time and I went to work! 

I inked up the tie stamp with my Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive markers.  I should have used Poppy Parade to make the ties really gaudy!  And some glitter on the ties would have been fun! LOL!  This could be used as a card for a man at Christmas...might be kinda cute!

Paper Players #49-Anything Goes



This week at the Paper Players we have a fun and easy challenge for you!  Anything Goes!  I decided to get a head start on my Father's Day cards and made this CAS creation using the new single stamp in the mini catalogue called 'Sail Away" and the great set called "Best Dad Ever".  The sentiments in the set are really clear and I love how they stamp!!



This card does not have a lot of frills or extras, but hopefully the simplicity of this card makes it fun to make and perfect for a man!  I think my father in law will like this card!!! I hope he will.

Be sure to stop by the Paper Players and share some of your creativity with us.  I am looking forward to seeing your creations!

Paper Players Challenge #46- A Colour Challenge


Today is Sunday which means another Paper Players Challenge for you!  This week, Ann has chosen a group of Masculine colours for us to play with!!!


I decided to ink up a brand new stamp set called "Best Dad Ever" which is avaliable in the new Mini Summer Catalogue from Stampin' Up!  The stamp set is really quite simple which is perfect for creating Masculine Cards!  I also love the many sentiments that come with the set!!!


I used my Stampin' Write Markers on the ties.  I flipped my Tie Stamp over and inked up each tie with my marker.  I did a pattern of Early Espresso and Not Quite Navy.  Then I breathed on the stamp to remoisten it, and stamped it onto Very Vanilla Paper.  The background of the card was created using the Sanded Background Stamp set in Cherry Cobbler on Cherry Cobbler Cardstock!

I hope you get the chance to join us at the Paper Players this week!
