Do you know someone who, when faced with adversity, has met the challenge with strength and grace? If the answer is yes, let them know their strength is an inspiration to you with a card created with the soon-to-be released, Waves of the Ocean collection. It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
Anne Marie has a sketch for us this week. I felt it was perfect for showcasing several of the beautiful products found in the Waves of the Ocean collection, which is available for order on Tuesday, March 1st. I can’t wait to see what YOU do with this lovely sketch!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
What could be better than coordinating paper, foil, and rhinestones to team up with an amazing stamp set and dies? It makes card making SO easy! First of all, the Waves of the Ocean 12″ x 12″ designer series paper sports hues of Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Night of Navy, Pacific Point, and Petal Pink. It’s only available while supplies last. I used a pattern with shades of Pacific Point and Coastal Cabana in it. I matted it upon this gorgeous Night of Navy foil, along with a strip of Coastal Cabana foil. I know foil is really difficult to photograph, but trust me, it’s stunning! Once again, these amazing foil papers (silver is also included in the package) are only available while supplies last, as are the Waves Rhinestones.
I love the dies and images that are included in the bundle. Just look at the dimension in the clouds!

Notes from Nueve
I learned something about my Mom today. Sometimes, when she makes a card, she is messy. I was looking at her working place. It was a mess. It made my head swim! I was like “Whoa!”
She even left scissors out where I could get them. I’m just a kid. I could have gotten hurt!
She needs to take better care of her stampin’ toys. And speaking of toys, why does everybody take my toys? I’m tired of it. Uncle Jackie took my squeaky pig, and he wasn’t even playing with it.
Then Sixxy took the ball I was playing with, and I couldn’t get it back from her. She thinks she’s the boss of me.
I was really upset. But, my Dad made me happy again. He went out last night and bought me my own pig, because I am a good boy.
Well, I have to go now. I have to help my mom clean up her stampin’ place, cause I’m a working dog. If she does a good job, maybe I’ll let her play with my pig, and give her a treat, ’cause I am Good Boy Nueve!

I absolutely do know someone who meets challenges with grace and strength, and dear Ann, it is you! Your card is beautiful, I love the blues!
Stunning card! I love the colors & the texture on the clouds.
Wow Ann, you showcased this new collection beautifully! The pop of foil is the perfect touch, too. Thanks for having fun with my sketch this week. On a personal note, I just wanted to let you know I am keeping you in my thoughts right now. I know it’s a difficult time, friend. Big hugs!
I’m sure when you posted this, it did not occur to you that this card is really appropro for your life in recent days. You are an example to so many of us with your resilience and good humor. Hang in there!
Beautiful card, Ann. Perfect way to showcase the fabulous patterned paper and the blue foil! I am trying mightily hard not to buy the stamp bundle but I do love how those layered clouds look, and that sentiment stamp is awesome.
Those papers are gorgeous and I love that sentiment too!
Good Boy, Nueve!! Thanks for keeping mom in line!
So sorry for the duplicate comment, Ann!
Oh my goodness, Nueve; so glad you are safe from those sharp scissors! Good Boy for not trying to put them away for your Mom! And you are such a good helper, wish I had such a good helper here to help me with my mess!
Ann, I LOVE this card and how you used the suite. These colors are favorites of mine. Let’s be honest, I love all of your creations!!
Hugs!!

Ann, your card makes me want to go to the ocean! The papers are really pretty and love that sentiment! Have a great week!
This is such a beautiful way to highlight this gorgeous bundle! Love that you used all those BLUES! Gorgeous! And that Nueve….he’s too much!
What a beautiful card. And, fun news from Nueve makes me chuckle!
And just when I was thinking I did not need this suite – you go and create something beautiful with it Ann! Those papers, the foiling and that beautiful sentiment – gorgeous! By the way if good boy Nueve wants to come and help me tidy my craft room, I will definitely find him a pig or alternative object of his desire as a just reward!!
I love Nueve!!!
That’s a very special card! You should frame it and enjoy it every day. Losing two of your furry family members was very hard! Nueve is such a good boy for offering to share his pig with you. (BTW, your work space looks like mine most of the time. Maybe Nueve would help me clean up my space too.)
In answer to your question – yes, you!!! Hope you enjoy Nueve’s pig : )
