PP705 Challenge Winners

Hi all, Joanne here. Thanks for playing along with my theme challenge this week - the gallery was a riot of spots and stripes and made choosing our favourites difficult!

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:

#10 Lisa Elton

#19 Fran Wing

#22 Debbie Bonczek

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

And now for my Headliner:

Nance Salkeld - Soul Stampin' Designs

Nance's was the final card to enter the gallery, but it was worth the wait: she used a combination of patterned paper, diecuts and stamped images to create a harmonious design full of dots and spots (and the odd stripe too!) that has so much visual interest and detail. Congratulations Nance on being my Headliner this 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 an awesome Colour Challenge from Elizabeth!

PP703 - A Clean-and-Simple Challenge from Claire

Hello everyone!  It's Claire here with a fun "Clean and Simple Challenge" for this week.  Before I dive into that, all of us here at The Paper Players would like to thank everyone who participated in Jan's  Color Challenge!  We loved all the creative ways the participants used the colors!

Now, on to this week's challenge.  I chose "FRUIT" for the theme as I thought it would be fun and also quite fitting for this time of year.  We all love to eat FRUIT in the summer.  Have fun and get creative.  Just remember to keep it Clean and Simple!
