Hello my crafty friends! The Paper Craft Crew is here with another awesome card sketch challenge to inspire you.

I still had the Fluffy Friends – Holiday set by Taylored Expressions on my desk. I pulled out some old patterned paper and voila – this fun winter card came together.

I can’t get enough of that adorable little polar bear! Add in his little hat flying off as he speeds down the hill, and you have cuteness overload! Bear, sled and hat were colored with Copic markers. The sentiment is heat embossed on Kiwi Kiss card stock and fussy cut out.

You should check out The Paper Craft Crew blog for more inspirations from the Design Team. Then, make your own creation based on the sketch and share it with us! Thanks for stopping by! Join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!

Hello, crafty friends! Can you believe it is December already? This crazy year time has seemed to drag and fly at the same time. Well, let’s kick off this month with a fun Paper Craft Crew challenge!

I am in full Christmas mode now, so naturally I had to pull out some new stamps to use on this sketch.

These fun trees from The Stamp Market are great for a non traditional color scheme. I also used some gorgeous inks and glitter paper from The Stamp Market. Fun, Fresh and Festive!

It’s Paper Craft Crew challenge time! How about a fun inspiration photo to get your creative mojo going.

I love the calmness in this photo. The dark blue, crisp white and a pop of red. So, that is what I drew my inspiration from.

The Paper Craft Crew would love to have you join the fun and play along. Head over to the PCC blog and check out how the rest of the design team was inspired by this photo.

Hello friends! I am happy to be back with another Paper Craft Crew Challenge! This week, we have a fun layout to work with.

I have been bitten by the slim line card bug. Plus, I just got this adorable new set from Taylored Expressions. So, I was ready to work with this sketch!

Isn’t that little reindeer ADORABLE! I colored him with Copic markers. The Merry is from Stampin’ Up!’s Peace & Joy set. How about a closer look?

There is a lot more inspiration for this card sketch over at the Paper Craft Crew blog. Come join the fun and play along!

Wow! The Paper Craft Crew has reached challenge number 400! That’s a lot of creative inspiration. Let’s celebrate with a fun Tic Tac Toe challenge. Pic a row and get creative.

I decided to go straight across the middle: Monochromatic, Seasonal, Sympathy. I need to restock my sympathy cards. Never fun, but at least I can put some love into creating them.

I went with a neutral (monochrome) color scheme: White, Crumb Cake and Early Espresso. The (seasonal) leaves from Rooted in Nature are stamped in Crumb Cake, White and Versamark to get some depth. The two accent leaves are embossed in white on vellum. The sentiment (sympathy) is embossed in white on Early Espresso. The leaf panel is die cut with a stitched rectangle and the card base is embossed with the Pinewood Planks 3D emboss folder. Some linen thread and a wooden button compliment the natural feel of the card.

I invite you to join us on the Paper Craft Crew and play along! Thanks for stopping by. Join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!

Welcome to this week’s Paper Craft Crew challenge. I hope you are ready to play along. Challenges are a great place to start if your crafty mojo has taken a hiatus. They are also fun to play along when the creative juices are flowing. Either way, you should give it a try! Today’s card sketch would be a great way to start!

As soon as I saw this sketch, I knew what I wanted to do with it. I just got the fun Coming Home bundle from Stampin’ Up! and thought the tall house was perfect for this sketch.

I colored the house with my Copic markers. I really like coloring. I find it very relaxing. Do you like to color? What is your favorite medium to work with? Why not grab it and create your own project using this sketch. Be sure to upload it and share on the Paper Craft Crew blog! We would love to see your take on this week’s challenge.

Hello, crafty friends! I’m happy to be back creating with the Paper Craft Crew for this week’s challenge. Today we have a fun horizontal sketch to inspire your creativity.

I was inspired by my daughter for this card.

She is an avid reader… thus the sentiment (from Taylored Expressions Simple Strips background), She loves the out doors…thus the tree (Stampin’ Up! Pine Woods dies) and sunset watercolor, She recently got married…thus the two hearts.

How does this sketch inspire you? Join the fun over at the Paper Craft Crew! Thanks for stopping by. Join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!

Hello, my crafty friends! We kicked off October in a BIG way – my daughter got married on Oct 2!!! To add to the celebration, my new son-in-law’s birthday was Oct 1! (He better never forget their anniversary!) I used this week’s Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge for his birthday card.

He really likes sail boats, so I pulled out my Sailing Home set and my Stampin’ Blends.

I used my Night of Navy, Midnight Muse, Balmy Blue and Seaside Spray Stampin’ Blends to color the ombre panel. I stamped the white panel with the retired World Map background stamp.

You can check out more inspiration on the Paper Craft Crew blog and join in the fun! Put your creativity to work and share your project with us.

Hello friends! Welcome to the end of September. It has been a crazy busy month as we have counted down the days to our daughter’s wedding. We are now 2 days away!!!

I did find time to play along with this week’s Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge.

Here is my creation:

The card base has a wood grain dsp panel on it. It kind of blurs out in the photo. I used Free As A Bird stamp set and Peony Garden, Forever Greenery and Wood Grain (retired) DSP.

I’ll see you next week after I recover from the weekend’s wedding frenzy!

Hello friends, so glad you are here today. Let’s play along with a Paper Craft Crew challenge! This week we have a fun Autumn Adventure inspiration photo to get those creative juices flowing.

Inspiration photos are fun because you can really go any direction from them. Color Combos, Layout, Images, theme are just a few ideas. For this picture, I was immediately drawn to the wood background. I had the perfect wood grain DSP to use! Next I focused on the autumn produce. Here is how it all came together.

I cut a square of Plaid Tidings DSP with a Stitched Square die and added it to the lower right corner for a table runner, napkin or placemat feel. I stamped the milk can and flowers from Country home and colored them with Copics. Image is cut out and popped up on dimensionals. Sentiment is stamped on vellum attached with a couple of brads with a strip of Bumblebee dsp behind. Finished off with some linen thread and silver pearls.

I love the fall country feel of this card! What inspiration can you find in this week’s PCC challenge?
