The Paper Players #589 Hello Bluebird Garden Party!


Hello friends!  Maybe you are old enough to remember circling a flagpole for May Day celebrations on May 1? Well, I'm not quite that old - but I think outside parties and flowers are a lovely remembrance. I still can't believe it is MAY already! It's also Sunday so that means time for a new Paper Players challenge! Our theme provided by dear Jaydee is - birds and/or bees, take your pick! Or use both as I did. 




I'm again featuring a Slim line card that measures 3-1/2" x 8-1/2". I had so much fun creating this garden party celebration! The images were colored with Copics with accents from a white gel pen added then die cut. The backgrounds were ink blended with DOX inks. 

Here's a close up so you can catch a look at those bees! I will list supples below for those who like details. 


Be sure to check the lovely inspiration provided by the Design Team and join us, won't you? 


Stay tuned for my second post today to follow soon. Have a great time with your weekend crafting!

Supplies: Stamps - Hello Bluebird Garden Party and coordinating dies, Sentiment from Park Play
Distress Oxide Inks (Cracked Pistachio and Broken China 
Dies: I used the Mama Elephant Slim Film City dies for the outer scalloped mat and the long postage stamp bordered edge. The SU stitched square die created the windows. 
Paper: SU Soft Sky
Other: Wink of stella for bees wings, white gel pen, Copics

Somebunny Slimline card

 Hi, it's Thursday afternoon and I'm here with a just for fun post! Meaning a project not made for a DT,  or even a card challenge, but just because! I've collected quite a lot of adorable critter stamps for making scenes, and I've become obsessed with the extra space a slimline card allows. And the cuteness!



Hello Bluebird has super fun animal stamps and the sets are easily combined for a scene as they are the same scale. I colored the images from the Park Play stamps with Copic markers and fussy cut them out.


 

They are arranged on the backgrounds and film layer from the Mama Elephant Slim Film City dies. I've found these to be a great value since there are quite a few options and I have already gotten good use out of them. I've had so much delight in trying this new style and card size. If you feel stuck in a creative rut, I'm recommending you try something new!

I hope your day is shaping up! I'm sending you sunny thoughts and hugs today! I'll be back with two posts on Sunday.
