Pals Paper Arts has refreshed their website, and this week's challenge is a sketch by Mary Fish.

And here's my card.

The sentiment is heat-embossed in black.

PP276: A Theme Challenge

The Paper Players' first challenge of 2016 is a theme challenge.

And here's my take.

I made this card for a co-worker's birthday. We don't always want to be reminded of the age we're turning, so I didn't put a specific number on the card.

I pasted a sheet of vellum behind the sentiment to mute the number pattern so that "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" stands out.

Paper: Raspberry Ripple, Whisper White, DSP Birthday Basics, Vellum
Accessories: Die-namics Birthday Centerpieces, Circle Collection Fraimelits Dies, Dimentionals

Variation of the Dec 31 post

I made a variation of the card I posted on New Year's Eve.
The colors of cardstock used today make the card look totally different from the previous card, don't they?

Stamp: Botanical Blooms
Paper: Whisper White, Smoky Slate, Soft Sky, Vellum
