Debbie's card is as cute as can "Bee"!  Who can resist these cute little bee faces?

PP792 Challenge Winners

Happy Saturday everyone - Joanne here, and it is my pleasure to announce the winners of this week's sketch challenge.  Firstly, a huge thank you to all of you who played along with our challenge this week.  It was wonderful to see how you interpreted the sketch and I particularly liked that some people used circles, ovals or arches for the main panel - you are a creative bunch!

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

Amy Koenders - Stamp With Amy K

Sonja Zierer - craftsandquests

Nora - A Creative Touch

Terri T - My Stamp Vault

Now for our Headliner:

Pat Gotsis - Instagram

There were a few patriotic cards in this week's gallery, but Pat's birthday card with a subtle nod to the red, white and blue theme caught my eye. The subtle stamped stripes, starry panel and bold blue strip accented with her pretty flower pot has a cheery, happy vibe that makes it perfect for a 4th July birthday - or a birthday on any other day, for that matter! Congratulations Pat on being my Headliner this week!

Well done to everyone and happy American Independence Day!  Be sure to pick up your winner's badges here!  And don't forget to come back tomorrow for a new challenge from Ann!

PP792 - A Sketch Challenge from Joanne

Hello crafty friends, it's Joanne here welcoming you to a new 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 Clean and Simple Challenge.  The gallery was small but mighty with some great CAS weather-themed cards. This week it's my turn to host and I have my favourite, a sketch challenge, for you. It features layers and a large panel that could be used to feature an image, embossed detail, patterned paper ... the list goes on; what will you choose? 

Now let's go see what the design team have created for your inspiration this week:

PP791 Challenge Winners

Hello fellow stampers! Jan here, and it is my pleasure to announce the winners of this week's CAS Weather challenge.  Many thanks to those of you who played along with our challenge this week.  Although the gallery was small, we had lovely entries.

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

Alice K

Arlene R

Vicki B

And now, for our Headliner this week...

Carol Mc

Carol's gorgeously hot summer scene caught my eye immediately. The tropical sky is beautifully blended while the stencilled pool looks so inviting. Together with the beachside lounger and the tropical colours, I could feel the heatwave. The diorama window gave a clean, crisp frame for the heat outside. Congratulations, Carol - you are my Headliner this week!

You can find your Winner's Badges here.  Be sure to come back tomorrow for new challenge from Joanne.

PP791 - A Clean-and-Simple Challenge from Jan

Welcome everyone, to the latest challenge at The Paper Players! Jan here as your hostess this week. Thanks to everyone who took on Christy's bright summer colours last week: it was a small but gorgeous gallery. 

This week, I have a double challenge for you. It's Clean and Simple Week so in addition to creating us something on the theme of weather, it needs to be done in a Clean and Simple style.

At The Paper Players, we take Clean and Simple to mean a design that is uncluttered with lots of white space and few embellishments or layers. 

On the weather front, you can go wild: sun, rain, snow, wind, storms, rainbows... wherever the wind blows you! Take a look at what the team have done and then have fun creating something of your own to share with us.

PP790 Challenge Winners

Good morning, stampers!  Christy here with the winners for last week's color challenge...I think my colors scared off some of our usual players, so our gallery was small but mighty!  Thank you to everyone who did play along with us, and without further ado, let's take a look at what caught the eye of the design team this week:

Carol Mc

Bobby

Vicki

And for our Headliner this week:

Tracy

I love the textured background for Tracy's color blocks and butterflies, with more texture on the embossed layers, and then adorable rhinestone-bedazzled butterflies to top everything off!  Great use of the colors for a bright and fun card.  Congratulations, Tracy!  You can grab your badges here.

We hope to see you here tomorrow when Jan has a new challenge for us!
