Delightful Wishes for PP720
Welcome to The Paper Players first challenge of 2025! Even though I have not posted any cards since our last challenge, you have been on my mind. This Delightful Wishes Thinking of You card is just for YOU! It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
This week, sweet Elizabeth is hosting a color challenge for us: a palette of pink, orange and green. What a delight these hues are! Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, Soft Sea Foam and Mossy Meadow share the spotlight on my card today. I can’t wait to see what shades YOU use!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
I am a “Die and Paper” person. There is no doubt about it. I love showing off Stampin’ Up!’s fabulous dies and lovely paper. Today’s card is evidence of this. The new Delightful Wishes dies take center stage as the focal image on this fun card. A Basic Beige branch supports Petal Pink flowers with Calypso Coral details and Soft Sea Foam leaves combined with Mossy Meadow. As for the paper? The sweet dotted paper is from the To Market designer series paper collection (Annual Catalog), while the plaid and squares papers are from the Timeless Plaid collection found in the new January – April Mini Catalog. Of course, you know me and plaid! I LOVE these papers!

A Personal Note From Me
It has been difficult the past two months. As you have noticed, I have been off the grid. Both Kim and I fell ill returning home in mid-November from showing Nueve in Florida. Although scheduled to show through December, we ended up canceling the last 7 shows of his career. He ended up his show career as the #12 Boxer in the United States. We are so proud of him. He is my “once-in-a-lifetime” show dog!
Kim and I were both exhausted after our last trip on the road. Kim is still under the care of his doctor and is still being treated. I have been improving, although I get tired very easily. My last appointment was January 2nd, and I was sent home with instructions to continue to rest, take it easy and most importantly to simplify my life. As my doctor pointed out, I need to quit burning the candle at both ends. Oh my gosh…silly man! I don’t know how to do that!
Nueve, Sixx and Uncle Q have been great nurses! They enjoy having all of us home together. Nueve has been relishing the knuckle bones Santa Paws left him,
while Princess Sixx loves watching the snowflakes tiptoeing by!
And just like me, they both enjoy relaxing in front of the fire.
Because I was under the weather, I never got to post our Christmas picture, so here it is. I know that several of you have seen it on Facebook. Belated Merry Christmas to you all!
Nueve wants you to know he will be sharing much more with you in the New Year. As for me, as I recuperate and start feeling better and better, you can expect more posts from me! Until then…
