Challenge 784 Winners
Happy Saturday and welcome back to the Paper Players. A huge thank you to all of you who played along with our Feminine challenge last week. It really was wonderful to see such a diverse array of feminine cards and was proof that feminine is more than just pink and lace. From sophisticated black to vintage collages, and from drinks to dancing, it was a fabulous gallery.
Before we get to our HEADLINER, let's see the top picks from our DT this week:
Nancy
Jolanda
Colleen
Amanda
Amanda's pretty in pink and peach creation is right on trend and I love it paired with the light mint green and deeper teal. The panels add wonderful interest and texture without detracting from that fabulous sentiment. The scalloped edges ensure that your eye is drawn right into the sentiment and the soft gold, peach and green florals frame her sentiment beautifully. The light pink enamel dots work so well with the gold dots from the inside of the flowers and the whole composition keeps your eye moving around to see more.
Congratulations, Amanda. You are my HEADLINER this week. We hope that all our winners will collect your badges and display them with pride.
Don't forget to join us again tomorrow. The fabulous Claire has a fresh, clean and bright color challenge for you all.

PP782 Challenge Winners
Hey stampers! Christy here with the winners from this week's challenge for CAS cards featuring baby animals. Thank you to everyone who played along with us this week! We had a tough time narrowing down our winners for today thanks to all of you filling our gallery with lots of baby cuteness, but here's what caught the eye of the design team for our Cut Above winners. In order of entry to our gallery, we have:
And now for this week's Headliner, Bobby:
Bobby's card is perfectly CAS and that little elephant could not be any cuter. Paired with an unforgettable greeting and a so-soft blue background, this card is practically perfect in every way, just like babies! Congratulations Bobby, you're my Headliner this week!
Congratulations to all our winners this week, we thoroughly enjoyed seeing your creativity in our gallery. We'll see you here tomorrow for a wonderful sketch from the equally wonderful Stef!
