Happy Sunday, peeps! Time for a new Paper Players challenge, and this one is from our amazing hostess Joanne! She has a clean-and-simple theme for us:
She wants "Signs of Winter"....but specifically NOT Christmas! Well, winter certainly is rearing its head here--snow and COLD!!! I pulled out some stamps featuring hats and mittens and went to work:
My stamps are from W+9, stamped in Azure Afternoon. I got my color inspiration from Color Hues:
After stamping and diecutting my winter wear, I used the sketch from Sunday Stamps to arrange them:
My embossed panel used an embossing folder from Tim Holtz, and I stamped some snow around the mittens and hat and added a cute "Brrr" sentiment from Colorado Craft:
A little Crafter's Companion stamp went on the inside. I thought I would add a birthday or get well sentiment as well, when I need a card for that occasion!
I hope that you'll play along with our challenge this week! Remember to keep it CLEAN AND SIMPLE! I know we want to add lots of bells and whistles, but this week, keep it all about stamps, ink and paper! Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

LeAnne, I love how you used both challenges to create this fun card. The embossed panel in the Azure is so pretty! Your little snow hat and mittens are a must for a cold day. CAS perfection! Have a great week, My Friend!
There's a blast of cuteness from Winters past! I always loved that set, LeAnne - Tom wears a hat just like this when he's out shoveling... brrr indeed - looks like he'll wear it twice this weekend!

Super cute, LeAnne! You used these challenges to make a great card! I am not a fan of this winter weather anymore but I sure love the hat & mittens you used here! Today we really need the hat, mittens and extra layers thanks to this bitter cold & snow. I'm over winter but love your card! TFS!!
Oh, LeAnne! This sketch is perfect for showing off these warm looking hat and mittens. How I wish I had a hat like this for the cold temps today! The "BRRRRRRRRR!" sentiment is SO cute and so appropriate for the outside of the card. I LOVE this sentiment on the inside. What a great CAS card! Have a wonderful week!
This is so cute, LeAnne! Love these cozy knits, and such a fun layout for them with our sketch! Thanks so much for playing at Sunday Stamps!
Those images are adorable and I love the way you've used them! CUTE card, LeAnne!
I love that blue and your BRRRRR sentiment with those cute mitts and hat! Stay warm!
Fantastic...I love your embossed boarder!! Thanks for joining the fun and playing along with our sketch challenge over at Sunday Stamps!! You rocked our new sketch with your winter ware!!

I love your blue and white winter card, LeAnne! I was so tickled when we got Azure Afternoon as an SU! color, but for some reason it doesn't seem to feature in many color challenges, I don't know why. Anyway, I think your blue and white is perfect for this challenge and I love the knit texture on the Azure Afternoon cardstock. I didn't even notice the Brrrr! sentiment at first but it's perfect!
These sweet woolies are sure needed this week, LeAnne! And they are so pretty in the blue and white! Thanks so much for sharing with us at Color Hues!
Such a great card with fun details, LeAnne! Adding the tiny snowflakes around the hat and mittens, along with the "brrrrr" sentiment is just too cute. Great job knocking out of the ball park for all three challenges! Loved seeing your card in the CH gallery, thank for playing along!
Hello LeAnne! I love these cozy little knits and the CAS design of your card. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Color Hues, I hope you are doing well.
What a fabulous CAS card! Firstly, I love the combination of Azure and White - so crisp and wintery. The snowy background is great and lets the hat and mittens stand out but it's that band of textured blue that I love: it's like a big warm blanket. :-)
These colours are the perfect pair for fresh wintry vibes and the textured border along with your cosy winter woollies exude warmth - gorgeous!
What a fabulous CAS card for all of the challenges. I love all the texture on this while still being CAS. Thanks for using the sketch over at Sunday Stamps.
LeAnne, this is absolutely adorable. I love the little hat and mittens and I love that you kept to the cool blue and white colors. Fabulous CAS card
