Razzleberry challenge

I was very unsure of the colours The Paper Players chose this week but surprisingly they look great together.

This card is not what I originally intended, due to the fact that I found the embossed piece in the Pool Party folder, so like Topsy it just grew from there.

 
All supplies are from Stampin' Up:
Stamps:  Elements of Style;  Made for You
Card:  Rich Razzleberry, Pool Party; Whisper White; Basic Black
Tools:  Big Shot; punches
 
Cheers

A Sunny Bird

Doing a last minute dash for two challenges.  I knew I didn't have time to complete two cards, but I think I have managed to combine the two challenges in this card.

The Paper Players have a Tic Tac Toe challenge which is closing today and I chose the top line of birds, blue and birthdays and teamed it with the sketch at Sunny Challenges and Creations asking us to use retiring products.  Apart from the card stock, all the ingredients have now officially retired.


Stamps:   SU Nature Walk; French Foliage; SU Music wheel; Itty Bitty Banners
Ink:   SU Marina Mist and Soft Suede
Designer Paper:   SU First Edition
Tools:   Big shot; Bitty Banner Framelits

Nature Walk is a really lovely set of stamps but it has been sadly neglected by me, so I am very happy to finally get around to using it.
 
Thanks for popping in,
Mary

Edited to add:


thank you, I am delighted to be a ray of sunshine, but I won't get too big a head as there were not many entries this week.

Flying umbrellas

Thanks to Christine I have caught the 'challenge bug'.
 
While I love the look of "clean and simple", I have never been happy with any of my attempts - probably because I can't leave them alone and keep adding bits, so when I saw the theme for the current Paper Players, I just had to give it a go.
 
Even before I had finished my card I realised it would also fit the bill at Sunny Challenges & Creations where they were looking for a get well card.  I don't have a 'Get Well' stamp but this should suffice.

 
Stamps:  Rain or Shine
Ink:  Marina Mist
Card:  Whisper White
Other:  Ribbon from my stash
 
We sure don't need an umbrella in Melbourne today - we would get blown away.
