Paper Players 228

DSCF7200-001

Happy Sunday, everyone!  Today is my turn to be the hostess at the Paper Players, and I’ve chosen a clean and simple challenge for us today:


When I saw these cool Adventure Bound papers in the Occasions mini catalog, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with this challenge!  Check it out:

LeAnne Pugliese WeeInklings Paper Players 228 Adventure Awaits Stampin Up

This card is pretty big, it measures 4 1/2” x 6 1/2”, which is the size of the DSP itself!  I embossed that awesome sentiment from Adventure Awaits in White craft ink and white embossing powder, then adhered the DSP to a Smoky Slate card.….and that was it!  My CAS card was done!   The paper did all the work..love it!   I can’t wait to see what you do with this challenge!  Share your creation over at the Paper Players so we all can see it!  And check out the awesome samples of the other designers:
Happiness is finding TWO Hershey’s kisses!  Enjoy your day!

Such a cool card, and so masculine! I like that you made the card the same size as the paper, and the sentiment looks awesome embossed in white. Great card and a great challenge, LeAnne!

Ok, before I get to your gorgeous card...how adorable is Miss Cassidy?! (<---note the interrobang) :) Now the card. I bought these papers and have yet to open them. I just love everything about your card. The paper packs the perfect punch and the sentiment just adds to the beauty. Thanks for a fun challenge this week, my friend! :)
