PP764 Challenge Winners

Hello crafty friends!  Stef here to announce the winners of PP764. I want to thank everyone very much for playing along with my CAS challenge!! There were so many beautiful holiday cards, with many of you sharing wonderful details about why/how you chose your favorite holiday image, and all the while keeping things CAS.  

Before we get to my Headliner for this week, let's see what caught the eye of the team:

Michele

Deborah Wheeler

Rosemary D.

And now to our Headliner!

Arlene R. 

Arlene's card with the beautiful dove and the word peace really spoke to me.  Her delicate and subtle shading, along with coloring only the banner and olive branch, created such a stunning CAS card.  Congratulations, Arlene, you're my Headliner this week!

Congrats to all the winners!  Be sure to pick up your badges here.  And please come back tomorrow for our sketch challenge from Ann!

PP764 - A Clean-and-Simple Challenge from Stef

Hello crafty friends, it's Stef welcoming you to a new CAS challenge at the Paper Players!  But before we get to that, I'd like to give a big thanks to everyone who played along with Jan's Color Challenge.  We had such a great gallery filled with gorgeous autumnal cards. And congrats to the winners!

Now onto our monthly Clean and Simple challenge.  I've chosen what I hope is any easy theme, especially given this time of year, which is to use a favorite holiday image on your CAS card.  Things like trees, menorahs, Santas, candles, ornaments/baubles, presents are some ideas.  Just remember to keep it CAS - limited layers and embellishments, plenty of "white" space, etc.

Now let's go see what the design team chose as their favorite holiday image!

Hello and welcome to the latest challenge at The Paper Players! LeAnne's Harvest themed challenge last week brought some gorgeous entries into the gallery. Thank you to everyone who took up the challenge. 

Jan here and I'm hostess this week with a colour challenge for you. Regals are my favourite colour family so I hope you'll enjoy playing with them.  Will you make an autumn card with these rich colours or something else entirely?

Let's have a peek at what the design team have done with them!
