Hello, everyone!  Claire  here with our newest challenge! Thank you so much to everyone who played along with Stef's color challenge last week!  It's always fun to see what you create!   This week our challenge is Clean and Simple  with a Fall theme! There are endless ideas for this theme.  I really don't know anyone who doesn't love Fall. So, HAVE FUN!

Remember to keep everything to a minimum!  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. Here we go:

Happy Saturday everyone! Stef here with the pleasure of announcing the winners for PP798.  The gallery was full of a splendid variety of cards using my challenge colors and I want to thank everyone who took time to participate this week.

Michele Ferguson

I Card Everyone

There were so many lovely cards in the gallery this week, but I kept coming back to Michele's fabulous Santa mug card and he won my heart!  Santa is decorated wonderfully and the embossing in the background added the perfect festive feel.  Congratulations, Michele, you're my Headliner this week!

PP798 - A Color Challenge from Stef

Hello crafty friends!  Stef here with a new color challenge, but before we dive into those details, I'd like to thank everyone who participated in Jan's theme challenge and extend congratulations to all the winners!

Now on to this week's challenge.  I chose this color combination with summer in mind - water, sand, beach umbrellas, beach houses, etc. But you'll see that the team and I have come up with a variety of ways to use this combo.  In addition to the challenge colors, you may also use neutrals on your card.  I hope you'll join us this week!

PP797 Challenge Winners

Hello everyone. Jan here and it's my pleasure to share the winners of this week's challenge. Thank you to everyone who joined in the fun with us! While all the cards would have delighted the little ones, what struck me was how many of them would have brought a smile to a recipient of any age. 😀

Before I get to my Headliner, let's see what caught the eye of the design team.

Julia Sager - Julia Sue's Stamping

Arnoldo

Jolanda - The Inque Spot Studio

And now, for my Headliner...

Leslie - Running With Scissors

Leslie's sweet mice were adorable and shared a message that was so perfect - and not just for the little ones. Who doesn't need to be reminded that they're loved and that someone thinks they're special? The pretty layered background with the repeated circle elements was stylish and fun. The bright pops of yellow added joy to the mix. Congratulations, Leslie! You are my Headliner this week. 

You can pick up your badges here.

Come back and join us tomorrow for a new challenge: a colour challenge from Stef.

PP797 - A Theme Challenge from Jan

Jan here and I'm delighted to welcome you to a new challenge at The Paper Players because I'm the hostess this week. Many thanks to you all for the delightful projects inspired by Christy's lovely sketch.

This week, I've got a theme challenge for you which I hope will appeal: For the Little Ones. Maybe you need a card or two for some new babies in your life (and their parents)? Maybe you need a birthday card for the tot in your life? Maybe you need a 'No reason except that I love you' card for that special grandchild, godchild, niece or nephew?  For whatever reason you need a something for a little one, then this is your challenge.

Here's some inspiration from the team to get your ideas flowing.

I love the contrast of the deep blue and crisp white, which totally makes me think of Greek islands, and the sweet little gold hearts and simple greeting are just perfect above the tile elements.  Congratulations Karen, you're my Headliner this week!  You can grab your badges here and be sure to come back tomorrow for a brand new challenge from Jan!
