Joyful Creations with Kim

Kim’s card brought a big smile to my face! I was thrilled that she was inspired to use all the elements of the inspiration photo including the colors, the mittens and the mug. She also managed to make this an adorable shaker card, while still maintaining lots of clean white space. Fabulously well done, Kim!

PP370 - A Color Challenge from Nance

Hi there, friends of The Paper Players!  Nance here, as your hostess for this month's color challenge.  Before we get to it, a big thank you to everyone who played along with LeAnne's Holiday Pines theme challenge last week.  As usual, so many beautiful entries!  This week, I have a color challenge that I hope you enjoy:

I'm always drawn to the simple elegance of white-on-white cards.  While they make for beautiful winter and holiday cards, as you'll see from our fabulous Design Team samples, the color is not limited to the winter season alone!  Take a look at what our Design Team created for your inspiration.
