A Peek at The Players and 30 Yards of Free Ribbon


It’s time for your Saturday Sneak Peek at my Paper Players’ inspiration card. Even though I am a Stampin’ Up! only designer, at The Paper Players you can always use any type of product in the creation of your cards. Why not join us this week? Who knows…you could be one of our next Cuts Above or Headliners!

Free Ribbon for Your Thoughts

I am still cleaning and arranging my stamping supplies, and I have soooo many little odds and ends that I need to give away. So today, I am giving away 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon…15 yards of Bravo Burgundy and 15 yards of Sage Shadow. All you need to do is leave me a comment on today’s and/or tomorrow’s posts. Using Random.org, I will randomly select one winner, who will be named in Monday’s post. Of course, tomorrow you will have my full card on which to comment. So today, I would love it if you could let me know of any tutorials you would like to see. Who knows…I may even invest in a video editing program!!!
There Is Still Time…

  5. Excited to see the full card tomorrow! And thanks for all the opportunities you give for sweet blog candy – you are so generous and kind!
    I love watching how to videos… I’d love to see one on placement of rhinestones and pearls (i.e. using any special tools for easier placement, how to incorporate them into projects, coloring to match cards, etc.) Thanks again!!

  6. It will be fun to see the entire card. I love the glittery butterfly.

  8. Pretty…looking forward to the reveal. I would like to see a tutorial on watercoloring. It’s just not my strong suit. Some tips from a pro would be great. Thanks!

  9. Some sparkle and some bling, can’t wait! 😀 have a wonderful weekend.

    Card looks interesting…sparkle, pearls,etc. I would like any video showing techniques. I am a visual person and it helps with videos. Thanks

  11. I have house cleaned my “blog surfing” and you and one other are my only visits daily! I love your vintage style Ann. Thanks for the inspirations.

  12. You have inspired me to use my pearls. I have them but have been too shy to use them. Thanks!

  13. Ann your sneak is so exciting! I see some rhinestones and those yummy pearls … so it will absolutely be a perfect beautiful card for sure!
    Can’t wait to see the entire reveal!hugs.

  14. I can hardly wait til the reveal in the morning; love the colors you are using and all the bling and glitter. You threw me a curve with the stamp set but finally found it on page –, no I won’t spoil your surprise! I do love the thrill of the hunt! Did Muffy help with the creative process? (VBG – very big grin) Whatever you would like to share by video would be great. Have a great day, Ann; see you in the morning!

  15. J’aime beaucoup ton blog et je le visiste à chaque. Tu es une source d’inspiration pour chacune d’entre nous.

    merci

  16. Wow – burgundy ribbon? I am so there! Please pick me!

    Love the sneak peak – I’m desperately trying to figure out where that butterfly came from!

  17. This is rather interesting because I have been hoping to find both burgundy and sage ribbon but have been telling myself I’d just need to move on and have to use new stuff to go with my older cardstock. Wish me luck!

  18. Love receiving your updates 🙂

  19. Look at all that bling! Is that cool or what? I am not a big glitter person but that glass glitter intriques me – maybe the bigger pieces? Maybe unique ways of using that glass glitter might useful. I like to get lots of use out of my stuff. I am still checking out that color spritzer thing. Didn’t you do a how to but it wasn’t a video was it? Gotta o back and check that out. I like the look of the little specks but how to control the blobs would be helpful or just “less is more” attitude. I know the farther away from it the less spray you get too but how far so as you don’t have it sprayed every place but on the paper? Does that make sense? Otherwise, anything you want to do a tutorial on – we would love to watch and learn! Another one in my case, how to fix boo-boos to salvage a card. I am sure the kids would love to help in that!

  20. Well this sneak peak is very pretty. Can’t wait to see the whole thing. I would like to see more flower tutorials. I see the cutest flowers but when I got to fuss with them, they end up all weird, lol. S.U. has the new flower punches and dies, so that would be great to see in video.

  21. Ooh, the butterfly looks so precious, I can’t wait to see the whole card!

  22. I’m loving what I see so far. Love the butterfly with the glitter. Perhaps it is vellum???..will have to wait until the big reveal. I am a big fan of pearls, so will have to see what you’ve done with the whole card..can’t wait! 🙂

  23. Always look forward to your posts

  24. OK you’ve got me. Can’t wait to see the rest of the card

  25. Just wanted to day I received the corduroy brads and buttons – so fab! I’ve used some already. 🙂 Thanks a million!

  26. Ann, I am very impressed with your recent cards. Your talent keeps improving. Your glitz and glitter add a lot of pizazz to your creations.

  27. Ooooh, I see bling, glitz, and pearls! Is it Sunday yet?

  28. Looking forward to tomorrow’s post. Love your cards…thankyou for the ideas.

  29. Can’t wait to see the whole card-I’m sure it is beautiful as always.Kathy in AZ.

  30. LOVE the sneak peak…can’t wait to see the full card tomorrow! I personally LOVE to make vintage cards, and In know I know a bunch of techniques….but I would always LOVE to learn more…especially from a pro like yourself!! And if you ever make tile coasters, I would love to see a video of that, too!!

  31. This looks like another one of your beautiful cards – your work is awesome and it is so much fun to receive your daily emails. It gives me the encouragement I need to try new techniques.

  32. Ooooh…do I spy a gatefold card? I can already detect your signature pearls and amazing detail. I love the sparkly little butterfly, too. As far as tutorials, I’d love to see more unique card folds. I’ve been having such a good time with the joy-fold card since you shared it with us.

  33. I look forward to your creations every day!

  34. Beautiful sneak peek, can’t wait to see the project tomorrow. As far as tutorials go, I’m always looking for new techniques to learn so anything goes (there’s so much I don’t know!) hehe. Keep up the great work!

  36. The Butterfly looks like it is shimmering with morning dew. As usual you have me at the edge of my seat!

  37. How tantalizing of a peek! Even what little you show looks beautiful! I can’t wait to see the whole thing. I have no suggestions for tutorials. Whatever you want to share is fine with me. Thanks for sharing your talent.

  39. I can’t wait to see the full card tomorrow, just looking at the sneak peek I know it’s going to be gorgeous! I LOVE that butterfly and all the bling! I would watch any video tutorials you’d like to share with us!

  40. Ooh – I can’t wait to see the card! It looks like a stunner with the bling, soft vintage-y colors, the speckles…

  41. Hmmmm, how ’bout a tutorial on one of those medallion flowers made with the scallop circle punch? I haven’t yet learned how to do one of those. Thanks, Ann!

  42. Lots of bling! I can see that. Will look for it tomorow!

  45. Wow! I can already see this card is a beauty just like all your other creations! I can’t wait to see the whole card! I hope you do start showing videos! I am such a visual person! I love watching them! As far as tutorials I can’t think of one right now but I’m sure I will AFTER I leave this comment! LOL! I would love to learn any technique you are willing to show us!
