A trio of flowers is a cheery way to say “Hello”, don’t you think? It’s Sunday and time to play with The Paper Players!
It’s Color Challenge week at The Paper Players and the lovely and creative Claire is our host. What a fabulous trio of colors she has for us: Gorgeous Grape, Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana. Of course, it should come as no surprise that I created a floral card, as floral cards are always my favorite to make. However, this is a wonderful color combination with so many possibilities. I can’t wait to see what YOU create. But before you head off to gather your stamps, papers and inks, please stop by and leave my incredible Design Teammates, who work so hard to inspire you weekly, some “Comment Love”. It brightens our day!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
I had so much fun using the NEW Floral Vignette stamp set from the May – August 2026 Catalog. I am usually a “Bundle Loving” gal, but this single stamp spoke to my heart. A bargain at its price point, this image can be used for so many occasions simply by switching out the sentiment. You can create a monochromatic image, or you can do as I did, using Claire’s lovely trio of colors, fussy cutting instead of masking. Of course, you know me and bling …. the more the merrier! Retiring Drusy gems and rhinestones abound.

Ann, this is gorgeously CAS. I love the bold florals, the soft green, oval frame and the Schach finishing touch – those wonderful glittering jewels. Just gorgeous

The design of the flowers is really pretty and you were smart to stamp then fussy cut to get the colors you wanted. Masking can be very tedious so this solves that problem. I really love that frame too, it completes it all so well, along with all the bling! Beautiful card, Ann!
Ann, this is so beautiful! I missed looking at this set, too! Your card makes everyone want it. I love the fancy border around the flower and of course you can never go wrong with all that bling! You certainly made my colors shine! Have a great rest of the week, My Friend!
Gorgeous card, congrats 💐☺️
Happy day
This stamp looks really elegant done with the flowers in different colours. The gems add further luxury. Have a great week. 🙂
I am like Joanne….totally missed this pretty stamp but you’ve made a treasure with it! LOVE that outline, as well as all the bling! You can never go wrong with bling!
Love it! So very pretty. Thanks for sharing.
I must confess I totally overlooked this stamp Ann but I love how you’ve used it here – it’s great for a ‘one and done’ card where everything is on one stamp, right down to the pretty frame too. And you could use any sentiment so it works for lots of occasions. Honestly, the addition of the bling really makes this card something special – and you can never have too much bling! Happy Mother’s Day to you!
I honestly don’t think I noticed this stamp in all the new stuff that’s come out lately, but your card showcases it beautifully, Ann! I love the fancy border around the flowers and all the bling–can’t ever have enough bling! Happy Mother’s Day and hope you have a lovely week!
