Happy Sunday, y'all, and welcome to another fabulous Paper Players challenge! This week we have a great CAS theme challenge from LeAnne:
Now, I've been a stamper for...*checks math*...about eighteen years now and I am a stamping DRAGON who almost never gets rid of old stamps or patterned paper, and the challenge graphic reminded me of one of my stamp sets from way back when. So I dusted it off (didn't have to dig it out of anywhere, my stamp sets are organized alphabetically on bookshelves #nerd) and made a new card with it for the first time in years. Lookie:
If you're a longtime Stampin' Up! enthusiast, you might recognize Loads of Love and Loads of Love Accessories, which I used here. Gotta say, I love using my Stampin' Blends to color in the images from older stamp sets like this one and Best Fiends that I used last week. I intentionally colored this one to match the challenge graphic. Ryan was asking yesterday to buy pumpkins so we can carve jack-o'-lanterns, but I think we're going to wait until closer to Halloween. It's another rainy weekend so I don't know if we'll get to go to a pumpkin patch or just buy them at the grocery store.
Anyway, hope you'll carve out a bit of time to participate in the challenge and upload your CAS card creation over at the Paper Players blog. Have fun!

ReplyDeleteIt's so good to be able to give old stamp sets new love with fresh colour Christie - this little pumpkin-filled truck is lovely and just like the inspo photo! I have tons of old stamps, but alas all in boxes - I'm thinking your shelving system must be impressive lol!
