Paper Players 287 CAS Easter Wishes


Hi everyone!  It's Palm Sunday, the first day of spring, AND time for another Paper Players challenge!  Jaydee is our hostess today---AND it's her birthday, so be sure to hop by her blog and give her some cyber hugs & wishes!  She's got a lovely clean and simple challenge for us today!


 I have been having a great time dusting off some older stamps and giving them some love!  This is a set from SU dated 1996!!  I got it at a yard sale and since I don't have catalogs that go back that far, I don't know what the name of it is!  But the little country images are so sweet, I thought they would be perfect for a springy Easter-y card!


I stamped each image in Basic Black, colored them with markers, punched them out and layered them on stitched circles in Pear Pizzazz, Pink Pirouette, Blushing Bride and Daffodil Delight.  I outlined each image with a little bit of Sahara Sand too, just to make them stand out a bit!  The sentiment is a combination of SU's Fabulous Phrases (wishes) and Technique Tuesday's Organized & Inspired (Easter).  I added some SU gingham ribbon and mounted the panel on an embossed card front.


I am also entering this in the RetroRubber (cuz this stamp set is definitely retro!) Easter challenge!

I hope you'll play along with our clean and simple challenge this week!  Check out what the designers created as well:

 Cassidy lined up a whole slew of her dolls "by age", starting with the one-year-old on the top left and ending with the ten-year-old on the bottom right...I know, there is no rhyme or reason to the size!  And since there are eleven dolls, the two-year-olds are twins!!!



Enjoy your day!

    That Cassidy is just too cute!! I love to see what she's up to. Then that card is adorable. I love those images and they really remind me of a lot that I've seen this Spring. I guess what goes around comes around is true. I really like those layered circles. Which stitched ones do you use?

    I love those little retro Easter images - that is one cute card LeAnne! The lined up dolls made me chuckle - especially the 10 year old still in a nappy (diaper) lol!

    Cute, cute, cute! I love these sweet little country style images, especially how you have them set up like a patchwork quilt. As for Cassidy and her dolls, she looks like she has leadership in her bones!

    LeAnne, I love this, it's absolutely stunning. The big fat embossed dots are amazing. I love the teeny tiny little images, that really stand out against the colour circles. Thanks for joining us at Retro Rubber this time. Cx

    LeAnne, I adore these sweet images. Using the Sahara Sand really did make the images pop. Love the repetition of circles and the pink gingham ribbon (I still have some of that also). Well done with the challenges. We always appreciate seeing you in the Retro Rubber gallery... thanks for playing!
