Happy Sunday, everyone! Time for a new Paper Players challenge, and Jaydee has chosen an interesting slimline sketch for us today:
I admit that slimline cards intimidate me a wee bit, isn't that silly? So I put on my big girl panties and went to work! It did help that I used the Inspired By photo as a starting point:
AND the fact that I just got these dies gifted to me...that helped too! Here we go:
I diecut some stitched squares from Smoky Slate heart-printed DSP, then added the "you & me", diecut from Polished Pink, Poppy Parade, Smoky Slate and Basic White. I added some Tim Holtz diecut alphabet Xs and Os.
The retired Great Greetings provided the sentiments, and those cute little red hearts are from the current mini catalog:
I had just re-inked my Poppy Parade ink pad.....so my inside sentiment was a little wonky! I'll give this to John, he won't notice, LOL!
I hope you'll play along with us this week! The design team samples will knock your socks off! Be sure to check them out at the Paper Players blog....then show us yours too! Thanks for popping in today!
And speaking of hugs and kisses.....I snagged these from my niece's FB page. I think Jameson will be an awesome big brother:
Enjoy your day and be blessed!
