PP782 - A Clean-and-Simple Challenge from Christy

Happy Sunday, everyone!  Christy here, and big thanks to everyone who played along with Jan's color challenge last week.  Our gallery was Daffodil Delight-full and so very pretty!

This week is Clean And Simple week and our theme is baby animals!  So many animals are born in the spring, whether it's in the wild, at a zoo, or on a farm, so I thought now was the perfect time to focus on these cuties!  Bring on the puppies and kittens and cubs and chicks and fawns and everything else.

Check out some beautiful cards by our lovely design team:

PP781 Challenge Winners

Hello Stampers,

Jan here. Thank you to everyone who played along with my bold colour challenge this week. The colours took you all in many directions from bees and flowers to cocktails and lemonade stands. There were so many gorgeous creations that choosing winners has been hard.

Before we get to my Headliner this week, let's look at our Cut Above winners, chosen by the Design Team. 

Bobby - Bits & Pieces

Michele - I Card Everyone

Trina = Phamtastic Design

And now for my Headliner, Deborah Wheeler

I was struck by the clean and simple elegance of Deborah's fun birds. It's a great example of the 'less is more' idea. Their quirky personalities made me smile. 

Congratulations, Deborah. You are my Headliner this week!

Congratulations to all the winners - be sure to pick up your badges here!  Be sure to come back tomorrow for a Clean and Simple challenge from Christy.

PP781 - A Color Challenge from Jan

Hello everyone! Welcome to a new week at The Paper Players. Jan here and I'm your hostess for this week. Thanks so much to those of you who entered LeAnne's Spring Showers theme challenge last week. The gallery was small but oh, my - it was full of gems. 

This week, it's colour week and I've chosen a bold and graphic colour palette for us to play with. When I sat at my desk earlier in the week to play it, I began to wonder what I'd been thinking when I picked it but once I started creating, I loved it. I hope that you find it as much fun as I did. 

I'm excited to see what you all do with it. 

 

Before you begin, here's some inspiration from the team.

Elegant with its gold-embossed bouquet and touches of gold embellishments, Cindy's gorgeous card is a masterpiece of layering.
