Happy Sunday to you all! It’s been a wonderful week, weather-wise; I hope you all are enjoying it! Today the Paper Players have another challenge for you; it’s Nance’s turn to be the hostess and she’s got a clean and simple challenge for us:
This was not the first card I came up with…..but after seeing some of the other Paper Players’ cards this week, I thought I would change gears (no pun intended) and go with a different design! Buttons are probably my favorite embellishment for a card, but I haven’t been using them as much lately because of the bulk! But I threw that hindrance right out the window with my “little boy” card today:
I apologize for the photo quality…for some reason, I just couldn’t get the colors quite right! The stamp set is I Dig You; Bashful Blue is the card base, and I inked up my Square Lattice embossing folder with Soft Suede ink before running the Soft Suede “mountain” through my Big Shot to give it some texture. I think this will be a perfect birthday card for one of my little nephews! And stop back tomorrow, when I’ll share the original card I had made for Nance’s challenge.
I sure hope that you’ll motor on over to the Paper Players blog and show us your CAS buttoned-up creation! You may be chosen as a Cut Above, or even our Headliner for the week! Have fun!
LeAnne, I love your new card that you created for this challenge. That little dump truck is adorable.

With two little girls, I need to find a boy to CASE this card. AMAZING. GENIUS. A TRUE TALENT. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThis "rocks"! Sorry, I couldn't help it! It is seriously cute for a little boy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a really fun card!!
ReplyDeleteHugs

Cute! The card and Cassidy!
ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw your dump truck card spilling with "dirt" buttons...I was in love!! This is SUCH a great card and all of the extra special touches, like the embossed and inked "dirt" with the button wheels. All of this cuteness is just so much to take in! I loved your first butterfly rainbow card, but you didn't disappoint when you changed it up! Have a blessed weekend!
