PP714 - A Theme Challenge from Elizabeth

Welcome to the The Paper Players! I am Elizabeth and your host for our monthly theme challenge.  Our theme, this week, is GIVE THANKS. Given Thanksgiving is approaching, I thought having Thanksgiving or thank you cards in your stash would be a plus.  We had a wonderful turnout for Anne's sketch last week, and I hope to see everyone in the gallery again this week.  The design team has provided lots of inspiration below to get your crafting mojo started.  Have fun!

PP713 Challenge Winners

Hey, Stampers, it's Ann, thanking everyone who participated in my Sketch challenge. What wonderful cards graced our gallery this week. It was so fun seeing the variety created from the same sketch.

Before we get to my Headliner, here are the ones, in numerical order, that captured the eyes of the Design Team as our Cut Aboves:

Michele Fergusen

Kim Singdahlsen



And now for my Headliner:
Julia Sager


Julia's card, with its shades of Highland Heather, Night of Navy and Blackberry Bliss, was right up my alley. I loved the leaves with their navy stems. The embossed strip offered a lovely contrast to the stamping. The sentiment was striking. Of course, there was just the right amount of bling! Congratulations, Julia, for being my choice for Headliner this week!

To all the winners, be sure to pick up your winner's badges HERE.  And thanks again to everyone who participated! Be sure to come back tomorrow for a new Theme Challenge from Elizabeth!

Maria's sweet little snowman-in-a-jar is just the cutest ever!

PP711 Challenge Winners

Hello everyone! Joanne here. Thanks for playing along with my colour challenge this week - there were so many fabulous entries showcasing oranges and browns and I enjoyed visiting your blogs to take a closer look at your designs.

Before we get to my choice for Headliner, let's see what caught the eye of the Design Team this week. In order of entry we would like to congratulate:









Congratulations to all of our Cut Aboves on your wonderful projects.

And now for my Headliner:


Jenny Engelke - Giddy Stamper

There were some wonderful creations in this week's gallery and whilst I was drawn to a number of them, I couldn't get past Jenny's fabulous layered creation. Each time I looked at it, I saw something new. Her card is a triumph of colour and textures and a fitting and elegant way to celebrate the happy couple and a fall wedding - just beautiful! Congratulations, Jenny, for being my headliner of the week. 

Again, thank you to everyone for playing along with us.  Congratulations to all our winners! Please be sure to pick up your badges here. We hope you will display them proudly.  Come back tomorrow for a fun Clean and Simple Challenge from LeAnne!
