PP377 Challenge Winners
Well, you clearly loved this week's challenge! The gallery was chock-full of beautiful clean and simple love-notes that made choosing a winner rather tricky! Before we get to my choice for Headliner, let's see what caught the eye of the Design Team this week.
And now for our Headliner:

I had a real 'Gnomeo and Juliet' moment when I saw Laurie's card in the gallery - this cute rotund pair of kissing gnomes, so beautifully coloured in a haze of love, jumped out at me in an instant. This pair of star-crossed lovers captured my heart as well as each other's - congratulations Laurie on being my headliner this week!
Thank you again to everyone for playing along with us. Congratulations to all our winners, please pick up your badges here. Come back tomorrow for a great sketch challenge from Nance!

Our Headliner
Julie's smooshed background is beautiful and I love the random feel of the background with the beautiful forms of those gorgeously colored butterflies and the white on black sentiment. The black mat frames this beautiful composition together beautifully. Julie, I can't say enough about this absolutely beautiful card. Congrats on being my headliner this week.
Don't forget to come back and play with us again tomorrow - I know you will love Joanne's wonderful theme challenge

PP376 - A Color Challenge from Jaydee
Hi Everyone. Jaydee here and it is my pleasure to host our Paper Players challenge this week. We loved seeing your punny cards for Sandy's fabulous Punny Valentine challenge last week and we can't wait to see what you do with this color challenge. It's a group of colors that you can use for masculine cards, kids cards - or even feminine cards. In fact our fabulous design team have really provided you with a broad range of cards as inspiration.
Neutral colors (white, vanilla) are perfect as a base for this color and we welcome the addition of any color of your choice to go along with the Denim, Lemon Lime Twist and Tranquil Tide. I chose gold as my additional color.
Let's see what our fabulous design team created:
