The Paper Player #807

Hello, friends!  I'm stopping by very quickly to share a card for this week's The Paper Players challenge.  

I'm making kids' cards to Creative Kindness, through scapbook.com. I was on a mission to create a kiddo's card using the colors shown above.  After going back and forth, I decided to make a frog the focal point of my card.  Before Joann's closed, I had purchased a bunch of loose cardstock from Bazzill, and I'm happy to share that I'm finally putting it to good use!

Supplies:

Paper:  All from Bazzill; Polka Dots (from my stash)

Stamp: Birthday Treats (Dollar Tree)

Ink: Black Licorice (MFT)

Accessories: Frog and Balloon (Cricut Maker); Stars (Stampin Up Punch); Bakers Twine (Hobby Lobby) 

Thanks for taking a peek,



Color Hues #142

Good morning, Happy Monday!  I'm back with another fun card for this week's Color Hues challenge!  I knew right away that I wanted to make a kid's card, and the first thing that came to mind was a lion.  So, that's the route I took!  

For the polka dot background, I used a very old designer paper from Stampin' Up! called Patterns Pack.  For the lion's hair, I used a digital paper from my files.  I thought it matched perfectly with the Burnt Red color as shown above.    

Supplies:

Paper: Polka Dot Paper (Stampin' Up!); Lion's Hair (Digital Paper)

Stamp: Itty Bitty Birthday (MFT)

Ink: Black Licorice (MFT)

Accessories: Lion cut with the Cricut Maker

The Paper Players #804

Hello, friends!  I had some free time last night to create a clean and simple card for this week's The Paper Players challenge.  All you need to do is add a bear!  I don't have any bear stamps, so I cut one out using my Cricut Maker.  Since I'm making a bunch of hello cards, I decided to use my Maker to cut out the letters, too.  To add a little pop of color to the card, I added a bow to the bear.  

Supplies:

Paper:  All from my stash

Accessories: Image and Word cut with the Cricut Maker
