Happy Sunday, all! Hope you're having a great weekend! Jan is our Paper Players hostess with a fun color challenge this week! Can you figure out what colors she chose?
So here we go:
I loved this challenge because I haven't used either Azure Afternoon or Granny Apple Green in a long time! They worked perfectly with this lakeside cabin image I had!! I stamped it in Stazon Black on a piece of watercolor paper, colored it with reinkers, then diecut it with the Stitched Rectangle die. I mounted it on a piece of woodgrain paper from Echo Park. Sentiment was from Simply Said, and I did add a couple of ancient Candy Dots for a wee bit of interest. This will be going to Dana's half-brother, who is an avid outdoorsman, so he won't care for a fussy card, LOL!
I hope you'll play along with these lovely colors--there are lots of ways these could be used! Check out the DT samples at the Paper Players to get some inspiration, then share yours with us too! Thanks for visiting today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

What a lovely scene, LeAnne! A perfect masculine card!
What an amazing scene! Sure would like to be there!
What a wonderful, peaceful lakeside scene, LeAnne! The woodgrain paper is the perfect backdrop. You showcased the challenge colors beautifully. It's a card any outdoorsman will love. Have a fabulous week!
You managed to balance all three colours perfectly LeAnne - your lakeside scene is so inviting, I would love to holiday in that cabin!
That cabin is gorgeous and I think the way you've matted it to the super wood grain DSP is the best idea! This scene looks so relaxing and peaceful - what a super way to use the colours. :-)
What a gorgeous card, LeAnne! The perfect use of the challenge colors. What I wouldn't do to be there right now (as long as it's not too cold outside lol)! Beautiful watercoloring as well. Great card for your BIL.
I sure would love a week in this lake side cabin. It is just the perfect setting. I would read and relax! What a fabulous way to use the colors. The wood grained paper is the perfect backdrop. Love it!
That image really is just perfect for these colors, LeAnne! Your lakeside cabin looks super peaceful. I, too, still have some of those old Candy Dots in my embellishment box. :) I am sure the recipient loved this card!
