Paper Playtime

Welcome to another great challenge at PAPER PLAYTIME! We are so glad you are joining us for our AUGUST STAMPING MONDAY CHALLENGE! Our theme for this challenge is VACATION.

How to play along: Make a project with the theme of VACATION using a Stamped or Digi Image/Sentiment. Easy Peasy! So for all you Cricut Lovers out there – you can still play along by adding a STAMPED sentiment. And for all you DIGI Lovers out there – use any Digi image or sentiment on your project.

You can enter as many times as you'd like as long as all your entries are NEW projects and NO backlinks to previous blog posts.

The queens got some digi stamps to play with, Mine were from Prarie Fairy Designs. here is what I came up with:



My neighbor loves his Harley, he loves to go on bike trips. For him, his bike = vacation. Hmm maybe I'll give him this card :) The stamp is from Simply Sweet Stamps.



I think these little ducks are so cute :) I decided I would make a card that I could send girlfriend when I was away on vacation - hence the "hey chickie" sentiment from Simply Sweet Stamps



I think Gilly is one of the cutest digi stamp characters out there. I literally love her :) Riding her bike, she reminds me of my kids - one of their favorite summer vacation activities is bike riding. My daughter just learned how to ride a two-wheeler with trainig wheels. She is so proud of herself :) The stamp is from Scrappy Moms.

Come play with us :) There are prizes to be won!!

Whimsie Doodle and Paper Playtime

There is a bonus challenge going on this week at Paper Playtime! It is an "anything goes" challenge that is sponsored by Whimsie Doodles. The design team were given some digi stamps to play with, and here is what I came up with:









As soon as I saw these stamps, all I could think was, what an amazing set of 3x3 cards these would be, so that's what I did. I colored them with my Prismacolor pencils and blended them with baby oil, and the paper is from Recollections.

I hope you all come to Paper Playtime and play along wiht us, there may even be some prizes :)

Summer fun!!

Man, this summer is being brutal for my blogging. I am either at work, or at the camp, and that's about it :) So much for being a good design team member... I am getiing my projects done, but not posting them to my blog. I am so far behind.

Today is digi challenge day over at Paper Playtime.Each of the DT members has been given some wonderful digi stamps to make a summer themed project with. I bought a Bind it All last week, and decided to break it open and make a note pad, and I am thrilled with how cute it is :) I chose this ADORABLE Gillian stamp from Praire Fairy Designs. Here is my project:



Don't you just loved it?? I think Gillian looks so suumery and cute!! I colored her in with my Prismacolor Pencils and used a CTMH alphabet set to stamp the word "NOTES". It is a 6x4 note pad, and fits perfectly in my purse!!

Everyone should come and play at Paper Playtime, there are tons of digi stamps to be won!! Hope you are all having a great summer!!

Hopefully back...

Well here I am! finally back online. We have had 2 week with no internet - that was fun - and my life has been chaotic at best. Although I have managed to get my design team responsiblities fulfilled, I have NOT been a good blogger! But I'm back.

Today's card - which was supposed to be posted yesterday - is Paper Playtime's Challenge for the next 2 weeks. The challenge is to use your country's colors (in my case Red and White) and a digi on a card:



The digi is from Praire Fairy and the paper is SU and CTMH.

Tomorrow I will be back with my Cricut Cardz Challenge post, and some info about a Canada Day blog hop I am taking part in. Happy to be back :)

Paper Playtime Digi Day!!

Happy Monday everyone! Today is a special day over at Paper Playtime. It's our first digi Monday. The last Monday of every month we will be being sponsored by some wonderful digi stamp companies and they will all be offering prizes :) The theme for digi monday will always be anything goes.

The design team was lucky enough to be given some digi stamps from some of the companies to play with. I was a little OCD and ended up making a card with a stamp from 4 of the companies... I know, insane...

Here are the cards I came up with:



This card uses an image from Digital Delights by Louby Loo. I colored her with my Prismacolor pencils. the sentiment is from Stampin Up.



This sweet bird and sentiment are both from Doodle Pantry. She is purple - which my daughter decided was the perfect color for her :) I used a CuttleBug folder - Victorian maybe??



These little cuties are from Prairie Fairy. they wer meant to be two boys, but I saw them as a boy and a girl - probably because I had a son and a daughter - so that's what they became... The stamp is from on of my favorite stamp sets Simply Sweet Stamps. I used my snowflake embossing folder and dragged a white stamps pad across it.



The final card has both an image and a sentiment from Digis With Attitude. Again colored with my prismacolor pencils. I thought the sentiment and image worked perfectly with each other :)

So head on over Paper Playtime, see what the digi design team came up with, and be sure to play along :)
