PP789 - A Theme Challenge from Stef

Hello crafty friends!  Stef here to welcome you to a new challenge with the Paper Players! But first, a big thank you to everyone who played along with Joanne's Tic-Tac-Toe challenge!  So many fabulous cards filled the gallery, and we loved visiting your posts to see what inspired your creations!  And congratulations to the winners!

Now on to this week's challenge.  It's the first of the month, which means it's time for a theme and I chose one that will work well for Father's Day, birthdays for the boys and men in your life or just a masculine take for any occasion.  I look forward to seeing what you create this week!

Now let's go see what the design team was inspired to create!

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 LeAnne's Sketch Challenge.  The gallery was filled with a fabulous collection of different interpretations of her sketch.

PP787 Challenge Winners

Hello, stamping friends! LeAnne here! Thanks to all who participated in our sketch challenge this past week! Wow, there were so many fabulous entries with so many different themes!  We enjoyed them all!  Here's what the team came up with as their favorites:

Laurie Unger

Created by Laurie

Bobby Hagen

Bits & Pieces

Leslie Miller

Running with Scissors

And finally, for my Headliner:

Carol McFarland

Saw It. Had to Make It.

I was totally enamored of Carol's summery, breezy, fun-in-the-sun card!  The background papers have such a tropical feel, and the sailboat looks like it is ready to take a nice little trip to an island paradise! I love how she coordinated the sailboat to look like the one in the background!  So cute!  Congratulations, Carol,  you're my Headliner this week!  

Congratulations to everyone!  Be sure to pick up your winner's badges here!  And don't forget to come back tomorrow for a new challenge from Joanne!

PP786 Challenge Winners

Hi, stampers! Ann here! Thank you so much to all who played along in my CAS - Food challenge this past week. Sushi, pasta, fruit and sweets! So many yummy cards had our mouths watering. With several stand-out cards in the gallery, we definitely had our work cut out for us in narrowing down the field to our top picks. 

Before we get to our HEADLINER this week, let's take a look at our CUT ABOVE winners as chosen by our design team.

 Arlene Rose - Sundaystamper Papercrafts

Deb Horst - Sendable Sentiments

Carol McFarland - Saw it. Had to Make It.

And now my choice for Headliner:

Colleen Begley - Colleen's Creative Corner

With its abundance of white space and minimal embellishments, Colleen's adorable card is Clean and Simple perfection.  The lovely lady, in her heart patterned dress and pulled back hair, is as cute as can be.  And seriously, who can resist a cupcake? I'll take a dozen, please! Congratulations, Colleen, on being my choice for Headliner this week!

Congratulations to all of the winners!  Be sure to pick up your badges here.

PP786 - A Clean-and-Simple Challenge from Ann

Hey, stampers, it's Ann, welcoming you to a new challenge at The Paper Players. Before we see what I have planned for you, thank you to everyone who entered Claire's color challenge last week. What lovely cards graced the gallery!

This week, it's time for our Clean and Simple challenge. We are looking for Clean and Simple cards that feature food in some way.  This is a fun one, and we can't wait to see what YOU create.  Remember, when we say Clean and Simple, we mean cards that:

Have minimal layers and embellishments

Have plenty of open space, also known as "white" space

Are simple and uncluttered

But before you scamper off to gather your stamps, papers, and inks, please check out what the Design Team created for your inspiration!
