Paper Players Challenge #3

Happy Sunday!  Lesley has posted our third challenge over at Always Playing with Paper, and this week it’s a Sketch Challenge!  I can see lots of possibilities with this one!  I love it!   Here’s it is:

I wanted to use some new products, so I made a card using the new Daffodil Delight cardstock, and inked up the little turtle from the Level 2 Hostess set, Long Fellows, for this fun cheery card:

I don’t know….do you think he looks weird holding the balloons between his teeth???  He is still smiling!  I used some papers from Tall Tales DP; I thought the So Saffron blended nicely with the Daffodil paper!  I colored Mr. Turtle with some inks and my aquapainter, along with the balloons from Sock Monkey and tied them all up with some embroidery floss.  Both sentiments are from the Long Fellows set; the little flower is from Holiday Blitz.  Since the DP is retiring, no sense in hoarding it, right?  So I lined the inside of the card with it too:

and added a belated birthday sentiment from On Your Birthday. 

So hop on over to Lesley’s blog to see what the other Paper Players  Corie, Jaydee, Lesley and our guest designer, Jeannie have come up with!!  Play along with us—you’ll have fun!
