Quatrefancy Cupcake for Paper Players #143

Hello there and welcome to another week at the Paper Players. This week, the absolutely awesome Ann Schach is our hostess with a fun sketch to try out. This week, I received some new items from the upcoming Stampin' Up! Catalog and was super excited to use them. 

I used the Quartrefancy Specialty DSP from the new catty along with the new Banner Greetings *hostess* set. Aren't the colors in this paper fabulous? Strawberry Slush is my new favorite color! Best. Pink. EVER! :) I have a feeling I will be using this color way more then I should.

What birthday recipient  doesn't deserve a cupcake? I dressed up the punched image with Dazzling Details glitter glue and a big button. I love those metal buttons from the Spring catalog, but rarely seem to use them. All of the supplies I used are listed below.

Please join us this week over at the Paper Players! The challenge is open through Friday, May 3rd at NOON (PDT). Check out what the rest of the Design Team have whipped up with this week's sketch challenge:

Happy Birthday, Cupcake for {PP #132}

Hi everyone! This week at the Paper Players, the fabulous Ann Schach has a color trio for us to try out. Summer Starfruit has quickly become a favorite color for me, so I couldn't wait to create my card. 

I have also been wanting to play along over at the new "Seize the Birthday" challenge. I was inspired by the sketch and the fun birthday theme. This week the theme is to create "feminine cards" and what gal doesn't like cupcakes? 

Ok, I do know I have been a little "bling happy" with the past couple of cards I have made. I'm going to try to lay off the sparkle for a while after this card. Ha..the key word there is "try". One thing I love about this color combo is that the Patio Party DSP (Designer Series Paper) in the current SU catty has these colors combined already, so that was what I decided to use for my card. I added some fun texture, a banner sentiment and some sparkle to finished everything off. The sentiment is stamped on vellum, too. All of the supplies I used are listed at the end of the post. 

I hope you will join us over at the Paper Players this week The challenge is open through Friday, February 15th at Noon (PDT). Please stop by and visit the rest of the Design Team to see what they have whipped up with these pretty colors:
