Hello and Happy Sunday! LeAnne has designed a really fun sketch for us this week at The Paper Players. I always enjoy having a great sketch as a starting point for a card. It really helps get the creative mojo working.
I really wanted to play around with some of the new In Colors that will be in the upcoming Stampin' Up! catalog. The Moonlight Designer Series Paper Pad has some awesome patterns with the new colors, so I started there. Lost Lagoon and Hello Honey are two colors that look SO pretty together! Perfect for a baby card, using the new Something for Baby set, too. That little duck is so stinking cute!
The little banner sentiment is from the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set and it was the perfect size. I added the Lost Lagoon ribbon at the very end because the card needed something there to fill the space. Since this card will be paired with a gift for a friend, I thought that layer with the ribbon kind of looked like a gift box. Maybe? Just me? Ok, I tried. Ha! I really like how this one came out and I hope you do too. Leave me a comment and let me know. I'd love to hear from you. :)
Please join us over at the Paper Players! The challenge is open through Friday, May 30th, 2014 at Noon (PDT). Stop by and say hello to the rest of the Design Team to see what they are sharing this week. Have a great day!
