Make it Monday with the Paper Players

Prize Patrol Color Challenge

Hi Everyone,
Thanks so much for stopping by. Today is one of my favorite types of stamping. It's a challenge and a prize patrol. Today I have created a card for The Paper Players Color Challenge #490. You will also have your chance to create a project and enter it with me to win a prize, but more about that later. 

This week, The Paper Players posted a color challenge with a great color combination. The bright colors are perfect for springing into the upcoming summer. For my project today, I decided what better stamp set to use than Timeless Tulips. So many tulips have been on display in my area and are so pretty. It gets me excited for all the gardening I spend my time doing in these next few months.


For the base of my card, I used Melon Mambo cardstock. I used another layer of the Melon Mambo and I embossed using the Scripty 3-D Embossing folder. This gives some great dimension and texture to the project. Another thing I did to tie the Pool Party in more is that I used an Aqua Painter with Pool Party ink to give a soft wash around the tulips. 


I hope you have enjoyed my project today. You can see other entries for this color challenge at The Paper Player's blog. You can design your own project and submit it to the challenge. Now didn't I start off by saying something about a prize patrol and your chance to win? Well I guess I better get to it.
