PP261: A Theme Challenge

I dug out a few Stampin' Up! retired stamps, and created my card for The Paper Players theme challenge this week.

And here's the theme for PP261: Lunchbox Love.

This is a mini card, so I can easily put it in a lunch bag.

I'm going to write a message inside with a white jell pen. :-)

PPA266: A Color Challenge

This week's Pals Paper Arts color challenge presented these 3 fall colors. 

They're beautiful colors, but a little bit subdued for the birthday card I wanted to make for a friend of mine. So the question is - how can I make a fun birthday card that pops using these colors?

Here's my solution.

I used the colors as accents against a white background, chose the polka dot pattern stamps, and a fun font for the sentiment.

Stamp: Six-Sided Sampler, Family Phrases

Paper: Whisper White Thick Cardstock

Ink: Delightful Dijon, Old Olive, Cajun Craze, Mement (Tuxedo Black)

Accessories: Hexagon Punch, Die-namics Pierced Fishtail Flags STAX, Designer Buttons (Regals), Glue Dots, Fast Fuse Adhesive, Dimentionals
