Join us! It is COLOR week at The Paper Players. Ann is challenging us to create a card that uses the Stampin' Up colors: Pretty Peacock (aqua), Fresh Freesia (purple), Lemon Lolly (yellow). I used a fairly new set from Concord and 9th, Sweet Stems, comprised of stencils, dies and a sentiment stamp. The die could be a paper hog but this set contains extra large and small flower centers which greatly reduce paper waste. On the design team card above, I die cut A2 panels of white, aqua and purple. On the two additional cards below I used the purple and aqua backgrounds, along with flowers die cut from the extra dies.
I did not use the sentiment stamp set (but will!), instead I layered my new favorite hello die. I didn't add any gems, the cards seemed "done" to me.
Here's a quick recap of our challenge rules:
1. Create a new paper project
2. Upload your creation to your blog with a link back to us and provide a direct link to the post featuring your challenge submission.
3. Please link your card to no more than four challenges in total.
Enjoy! I am looking forward to your inspired creations in the gallery.
Elizabeth

What a striking card, Elizabeth! The use of white makes my challenge colors take the spotlight and shows them off perfectly. Thank you for such a wonderful, happy, cheery inspiration card! What a phenomenal collection of products from Concord and 9th! Have a great week!
WOW! Thanks for being an enabler! I have to purchase this fun set. I love the way you used the textured paper for the leaves! GORGEOUS! I love all of them! Have a great week, My Friend!
So very striking! I'm amazed at the die and the way you've created three cards with it. I think that your DT card is a stunner with the strong colours against the white. :-)
Elizabeth, I've had my eye on this one from C&9th!! You're making it very hard to say no to it! I LOve ALL of your fun color combos!

These are all fabulous creations, Elizabeth! You have a knack for big, bold colors and elements...just gorgeous!
Those sweet stems, well, they certainly are and I can see why you purchased the die set, Elizabeth! They fill the whole card front and as you've shown, work wonderfully with a variety of colors. All three cards are fabulous!
Elizabeth, I love that you did this card in multiple colors, and those florals look fabulous in each one! So much rich color and texture. Gorgeous
