A Peek at The Players


It's Saturday and time for a Peek at The Players, where I show you a little snippet of this week's The Paper Players inspiration card.  For this card, I created my own background stamp. Plus it features a new set from this year's Idea Book and Catalog.  I hope that you will join me for the reveal tomorrow when The Paper Players challenge goes live!

Looks like lace and hemp together on your card for tomorrow. Interesting combination! Can't wait to see your creation.

Kim S said...

Wow! So many unique elements. Lace or maybe embossing? A detailed leaf? Some twine? With your cards, I know it will come together perfectly, but for right now, I cannot imagine what this will be?
