Snow Much Love The Paper Players PP 720


January 12, 2025

It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players.  

I sure hope you had a wonderful holiday season and are ready to start a new year playing along with us!  

Elizabeth is our hostess this week and she has a gorgeous color challenge for us.  Pink, Orange and Green are the colors she choose.  You can use any shade of these colors and you can also add in any neutral.  So have fun and get creative! 





 We had our first snow in Atlanta on Friday.  We had not had snow it 3 years.   It was beautiful to look at, but I am not a huge fan of winter.  So, I decided to have some fun with it.  I created a panel of embossed snowflakes using an embossing folder.  I used a sponge to add some black ink to create a little contrast.  I do love snowmen and I pulled out this fabulous stencil by Waffle Flower Stamps.  The Oversized Snowman Stencil is easy to use and I had fun creating this trio of friends.  I used Distress inks in Pickled Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin and Twisted Citron.  I then sponged some black ink over the scarf.  The sentiment is from Waffle Flower Stamps and it is called Snow Cheer Sentiements.  I used the matching dies to cut it out. I hope these jolly snowmen made you smile!

Winter Wishes Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC 351

 January 5, 2025

Happy NEW YEAR!

It's time for a new challenge at Sunday Stamps


We have a beautiful color challenge for all of you! We can't wait to see what you create!





I am NOT a fan of winter, but I love snowmen!  I knew I had to have this fabulous new stencil by Waffle Flower Stamps when I saw it.  The Oversized Snowman Stencil
is easy to use and so fun, too!  I choose 3 of the colors and went to work.  I choose the orange, yellow and mauve colors.   I made his smile mauve.  LOL!   I stenciled some polka dots on his scarf and added a few snowflakes that I cut with a die.  Wink of Stella, rhinestones and glossy accents added to his nose made him shine.

May Your Christmas Be Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC350

 December 15, 2024

It's time for a new challenge at Sunday Stamps. 

The last challenge of the year is a fun sketch challenge by Lisa.  We can't wait to see what you create.  It is so versatile and you can make a card for any occasion with this one. 




My card is created using a retro stamp set by The Ton.  Holiday Bows Stamp Set is fun and is always festive.  The gift wrap paper was in my stash.  I added a black circle behind the bows so, they would pop off the paper.  Wink of Stella and black enamel dots were added to complete my card.
