Amazing The Paper Players Challenge 788 and Sunday Stamps Challenge SSC

May 31, 2026 

It's Sunday and time for new challenges at The Paper Players and Sunday Stamps. 

The fabulous Joanne is our hostess this week at The Paper Players and she has a very creative Tic-Tac-Toe board for all of us to play with.  I always love all the choices to create something special.  It's color challenge week at Sunday Stamps and I combined these two challenge to create my card.  I must admit, I think this color combo is fabulous!  I adore bright colors!  Have fun!





My card is created using the center column:  Flower, Free, Patterned Paper 


Looking through my paper stash, I found this fabulous piece of green and white checks.  I embossed the panel with a basket weave embossing folder.  I used my favorite Spellbinders  Fresh Picked Anemones Etched Dies for the flowers.  I cut all the pieces to create this bouquet of flowers.  I used a die to cut my sentiment.  I love how this turned out.

Wherever You Go The Paper Players Challenge PP787

 May 24, 2026

It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players.

The lovely LeAnne is our hostess this week.  She has a fabulous sketch challenge for all of us.  I love sketches because you can make any type of card you need in your stash.  So have fun and get creative! 





I created this card for Victoria to celebrate the end of 7th grade.  She loves purple and roller skating so, I thought this would be a fun card for her.  I used the American Crafts Jen Hadfield Groovy Darlin paper pack.  The disco ball was cut using the Spellbinders Disco Balls Etched Dies using white glimmer paper.  The sentiment on the front and inside were created using an retired Papertrey Ink set called Shakers and Sprinkles.  I added the disco stars cut from the glimmer paper.

Have A Rice Day! The Paper Players PP786

May 17, 2026

It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players.

The amazing Ann is our hostess this week and she has a fun Clean and Simple Challenge for all of us.  The theme is "food".  There are endless possibilities with this week's challenge.  So have fun and remember to keep it CAS. 

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



I embossed a black panel with a bamboo embossing folder for my background.  The little penguin with his sushi was stamped using an old stamp set by SugarPea Designs.  They are no longer in business but, I still have all my stamps and love them.  This one always makes me smile.  The name of the stamp set is "Rice, Rice, Baby".  I colored the image with Copic Markers.  The sentiment is from the same set.  I didn't add any embellishments to keep it CAS.
