Colourful Loving Thoughts with The Paper Players

It's Sunday so that means it is time again for a great new challenge at The Paper Players. This week the amazingly talented Lesley has come up with a fabulous colour combo for us to work with.

Now I am not much of one for purple but I must say Wisteria Wonder is starting to grow on me:) and this colour combo is so pretty together.

I love the look and feel of textured card stock so I started with that for the base of my card. On the upper right corner I stamped the floral image from Elements of Style and it was nice to pull out that stamp set again as it was starting to collect a little dust. Of course then the card was spritzed using a Crumb Cake Marker and the Colour Spritzer Tool.

Next I layered on a piece of DSP from the Twitterpated Collection and added a decorative edge of Wisteria Wonder that was created using the new Adorning Accents Edgelits Dies and Impressions Folders. I then tied around some gorgeous Pear Pizzazz Seam Binding. It was also fun to finally pull out one of the Hat Pins that I have been hoarding and add three punched flowers to it.

The main image is from the stamp set Apothecary Art. I stamped two of the images tone on tone then die cut them out with the matching size Label Framelit and then added a heathy dose of sprtizing. For the sentiment I used one from my new go to set Loving Thoughts, I just love the font in this set.


We would love to have you join us this week at The Paper Players and please be sure to check out all the lovely projects the design team came up with this week.

So soft and beautiful, Jenn! I love the spritzing and hat pin...they are the perfect touches!

Absolutely beautiful card, Jenn! The textured cards tock is a fun touch and is a great reminder to use it more often! There is something about Crumb Cake with texture that looks SO yummy! The hat pin is a fun touch and that Pear Pizzazz seam binding really pops on your creation. Fantabulous mix of textures and layers. Hope you enjoyed your weekend! Big hugs! :)

Jenn, what a gorgeous take on the challenge. I love that you used the textured Crumb Cake, too. Each layer has so much interest and then there is the clean and simple sentiment. Fabulous.
So glad you joined the Paper Players again this week

Jenn, What beautiful touches you have made to this card! I think I need to try to do a little bit more spritzing because you have shown that it's such a nice touch! And, the hat pins?! Those scare me so much on how to properly use them, but you have done it perfectly...adding the three small flowers is such a great idea to bring in more of the Wisteria. I also love how you used the Adorning Accents Edgelits for the scallop trim. And I must admit that I think I'm missing out when I don't use textured card stock...love the way the card base compliments the rest of the elements in your card. Have a blessed week!

Oh Jenn, this is gorgeous! Lovely way to combine the colors and I am in awe over how perfectly the embossed edge lines up with the edgelit! I haven't mastered that yet, lol! Truly beautiful card. :-)

Lovely card Jenn, the hat pin is the perfect touch. The textured cardstock is awesome, I need to try some of that!
