Aren’t I lucky as I seem to be on a roll and managed another twofer before stopping for the day. The Paper Players is a PP783 – A Sketch Challenge from Stef and Sunday Stamps is SSC384 Pastel Portraits and I combined the two.

My Crafters Companion set (from a kit) seems to live on my desk lately and I’ve not used all the stamps in the set as yet. So I took the largest floral stamp and using the colours from the challenge stamped 3 flowers and heat set them clear. After trimming this layer down a bit I looked for some PP that would fit down the side as per the sketch. Then I stamped the butterfly, from the set, in Worn Lipstick and heat set it before fussy cutting. I’m not sure why the butterfly looks more red than pink in the photo. This was then added using foam tape. Somehow I managed to smudge a section in the main layer with yellow, which I didn’t see until after I glued everything to the card front. To hide the error I stamped the sentiment, also from the set, fussy cut around it, after I had heat set this clear as well.

It is nice to get another card done, considering that I’m still not feeling as creative as I know I can be. Sometimes just getting one or two done seems to kick start the creative flow, at least it does for me.

I’m off to get ready to go to dinner, which I’m looking forward to. We haven’t seen these friends recently as they’ve been away so we’ll have a good catch up I’m sure. Many thanks for stopping by, you are appreciated more than you know.
