Paper Players #534

 This sketch certainly challenged me - I had fun trying to decide how to play. In the end, I turned the vertical rectangles into candles, and the rest followed. A great challenge from Paper Players (PP534), thanks!

Ingredients: Stampin' Up! card, (Just JAde, Whisper White, Basic Black, Bumblebee), ink, (Memento Tuxedo black, Poppy Parade), Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight and Bumblebee watercolour pens, Flowers in the Field DSP, stamps (Peaceful Moments, Birthday Backgrounds, Incredible Like You), Layering Circles and Swirly Scribbles dies, Dot to Dot embossing folder.

Paper Players and CAS Colours and Sketches

 With this card, I used two challenges as starting points: Paper Players 523 and CAS Colours and Sketches 402. These are not colours I'd naturally turn to, so it was fun to move out of my comfort zone. Similarly, I'm taking a while to get my head around the hydrangea suite - but having fun doing so. 

The card:

Ingredients: Stampin' Up! card (Whisper White, Misty Moonlight, Blackberry Bliss), ink (Misty Moonlight, Blackberry Bliss, Bumblebee, Memento Tuxedo Black, Stazon Black), Stamps (Hydrangea Haven, Needle and Thread for sentiment), Hydrangea dies, Textile Texture embossing folder, In Colour enamel dots, Bumblebee pen.
