The Paper Players #411: A Sketch Challenge from Jaydee

Hello Paper Players! It's time for a Sketch Challenge from our awesome Jaydee:

I thought this was a great sketch to let DSP do most of the work!

I used a Recollections 6x6 paper pad called 'Halloween Boo' for the base layers. One of the papers in the pack had a friendly skeleton so I cut him out and layered him on a dark gray rectangle. The sparkly gray spider web ribbon from my stash was layered over the seam before I popped him up.  To finish it off, I added a white heat embossed sentiment - trick or treat!

There are lots of options with this sketch.  Check out the rest of the DT for some creative inspiration:

The Paper Players #410: A CAS Challenge from Claire

Welcome back, Paper Players!  It's time for a new challenge hosted by the lovely Claire:

It's a Clean & Simple (CAS) challenge this week with a Sports/Favorite Team theme.  Keep your creations CAS with lots of white space and minimal embellishments/layering and feature a sport, your favorite team or favorite team colors.

I'm a little light on sports-related stamps but as I was looking through my Christmas stash, I found this ice skating polar bear and had an "Aha Moment!"  Ice skating is a sport and I love to watch (not do :), so why not?

I started with a Neenah Solar White card base and cut a hilly mask out of copy paper. Before I started ink blending the sky with DO Wilted Violet, I white heat embossed some snowflakes. The snowy and icy hills were stenciled with a Prima wave stencil and Bo Bunny Sugar glittery texture paste.  The MFT polar bear was colored with Copics and popped up. I finished the card with a white heat embossed sentiment from Hero Arts.  Easy peasy and snow much fun! I can check off one more Christmas card too!
