It’s Your Day Fun Fold Card

What’s better than a plain old “It’s Your Day” card? How about an “It’s Your Day” fun fold card! It’s Sunday and time to play with The Paper Players.

It's Your Day Fun Fold CardThis week I am hosting our monthly sketch challenge. It’s a fun, versatile sketch. Although it does not state it, the circle can be any shape. I was inspired to make my card a fun fold one after a member of our talented design team said it reminded her of a fun fold card. You are more than welcome to do the same, if you want. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

It's Your Day Fun Fold Card

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips

When I first saw the Regal Winter designer series paper in the Mini Catalog, I was blown away with its beauty. I couldn’t wait to play with it. It is so lovely. I regret that I did not buy the Regal Flora stamp set to go with it. However, at the time I thought to myself, “Oh, Ann, you already have so many floral sets, you really don’t need another.” I wish I would have had it in my arsenal in order to create the flowers for my circle. Instead, I used the Flowers of Beauty set and stamped the flowers in coordinating colors.  Summer Splash glimmer paper added a lovely “splash” of bling. Opening up reveals a Lost Lagoon/Pool Party pattern from the Thoughtful Journey designer series paper collection.

O Christmas Tree

O Christmas tree! O Christmas tree! How lovely are thy branches! It’s Sunday and time to play with The Paper Players!

It’s Clean and Simple week at The Paper Players and the talented LeAnne has a fun theme for us: Tag! You’re It!  While I went with a holiday card, the sky is the limit with today’s challenge. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!  But remember, this is a CLEAN and SIMPLE challenge.  Before you run off to gather your stamps, papers, and inks, keep in mind that when The Paper Players use the term “clean and simple”, we mean cards that:

Have minimal layers and embellishments
Have plenty of open space
Are simple and uncluttered

Tag You're It

O Christmas Tree

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips

Clean, simple and easy are the hallmarks of today’s card! Sadly, no matter how many pictures I took of this card, I could not capture it’s beauty. The sparkle got in the way. I can’t say enough about the Decorative Trees dies.  They make it so easy to create beautiful and elegant cards.  Die cut from Garden Green glimmer paper and accented with red rhinestones, this overlay is stunning!

Favorite Fall Yummies

What could be better than a card that celebrates favorite fall yummies! It’s Sunday and time to play with The Paper Players!

favorite fall yummiesThis week the amazing Joanne is hosting our Color Challenge.  What wonderful colors she has selected for us: Shades of Orange and Brown! Aren’t they just perfect for Fall? Pumpkin Pie, Early Espresso, and Pecan Pie were perfect for my card, an homage to some of my favorite fall yummies. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips

Nothing screams Fall like shades of orange and brown. These colors were perfect for creating a card that showcases some of my favorite fall yummies: Pumpkin Spice latte, Pumpkin Spice donuts and Pumpkin Pie. Thanks to the More Than Autumn stamp set and dies, I will admit that my mouth was watering by the time I completed my card. To be perfectly honest, in real life the dollop of whipped cream on MY piece of pumpkin pie would be the size of the dollop gracing the latte!
