You’ve Got This for PPA 271

2

PPA271

 It's Thursday and that means it is time for another Pals Paper Arts Challenge. This week we have a color challenge and here is the color palette.

PPA271

A clean and simple card this week using three different stamp sets.

The border was created using a stamp from the Tin of Cards Photopolymer Stamp set. The photopolymer stamps make it easy to line them up to create the border.

The flower is from the You've Got This stamp set. It was stamped twice and the cut out.

The sentiment is from the All Boxed Up stamp set.

The Old Olive thin border frame provides the color balance the card needed.

I hope you will pop over to the Pals Paper Arts and see what the design team members did with the color palette. We would love to see you play along.

Thanks for stopping by.

World Card Making Day Swap card

0

WCMD swap

 This is the card I swapped in Atlanta at World Card Making Day. The photo does not do it justice.

The base of the card is Mossy Meadow. The Whisper White card stock is embossed with the Lucky Stars Textured Embossing Folder.

The two Christmas trees are from the Peaceful Pines stamp set and coordinating frailest. One is stamped with Mossy Meadow ink and then covered with Heat n Stick Powder. Once the powder was heated until just shiny with my heat gun I sprinkled Dazzling Diamonds over the tree and then heated it again. You can see a little of the sparkle in the photo but in person it really glimmers. The larger tree was stamped with Versamark ink onto Mossy Meadow card stock. Then I used White Stampin Emboss Powder with Dazzling Diamonds mixed in and heated it for a glistening snowy finish.

The white card stock was wrapped with Silver Baker's Twine and tied with a bow. The sentiment is from Lighthearted Leaves. 

 I will share some of the cards I received from the swap over the next few weeks. Thanks for stopping by!

Awesomely Artistic

1

On Thursday I told you my first project for the Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge was a card. Here is a quick look at that card.

PPA270 alternate

I ordered the Awesomely Artistic Stamp Set during the demonstrators pre-order period and had yet to use it. I thought the color palette was perfect for this set. 

To color the floral stamp I outlined the flowers using my Blackberry Bliss Stampin' Write Marker and then used a Blender Pen to fill in the rest of the flower. The leaves are colored with the Always Artichoke Stampin' Write Marker. The centers of the flowers are adorned with SU Pearl Basic Jewels.

 The dragonfly was stamped with Sahara Sand and then cut out. I brushed Wink of Stella over the dragonfly for a little sparkle.

 The base of the card is Sahara Sand. A piece of Blackberry Bliss card stock frames the focal point. A simple card with a dramatic look.

I am in Atlanta for World Card Making Day (WCMD) with many other Pals. On Monday I will share with you my swap card for this event.

Did you play along with the Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge yet? We would love to see what you do with these beautiful rich colors.

Thankful Table Favor

5

PPA 270b

This week's Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge provides us with big rich colors.  I made a card for this week's Pals Paper Arts Challenge however I really wanted to be more creative.  (Stop back on Saturday to see the card I made.)

PPA270

So I created a table favor for Thanksgiving. Wouldn't these be pretty on your Thanksgiving table?

I started with the Fry Box Bigz die and cut it out in Sahara Sand card stock. Then I  took a 1 1/2" piece of Bohemian DSP to wrap around the Fry Box. I realized that Always Artichoke is the only color card stock I don't have. I did find a small scrap piece of Always Artichoke card stock and stamped one of the Vintage Leaves. I sprinkled it with Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder and heated it to add a little glossy shine to the image. I then stamped two more leaves onto Sahara Sand card stock and followed with clear embossing of the images as well. 

The bottom leaf is adhered with Fast Fuse and the other two leaves are popped up on dimensionals. 

The finishing touch is a piece of Sahara Sand 7/8" Lace Trim.

I love this sentiment from the hostess set Six Sayings. It is the reason I purchased the stamp set. I hand cut out the sentiment and added it to the back of the fry box.

I cut up some retired Always Artichoke DSP using my Fringe Scissors as "stuffing" for the bottom of the fry box. This gave the perfect support for my Hershey Nuggets.

I hope you enjoyed the departure from a traditional card this week. Please visit www.PalsPaperArts.com to see what the other designers have created and play along yourself!

Thanks for stopping by.
