Hello and welcome to a new challenge from The Paper Players! This one is from Ann…
Great sketch, Ann! I can’t wait to see what you all do with it! Here’s a bit of inspiration to get you going this morning…
Aren’t those daises delightful? And the perfect size for my stitched oval die! I picked a few coordinating papers for my background and then colored my daises to compliment. I recently invested in a few Copic Markers and this card is my first attempt to use them! I know I have a lot to learn, but it sure was fun to color!!
I didn’t have two colors of yellow close enough to blend well, so I just added a second layer of color, keeping it away from the edges. I think it looks great, and a liberal dose of Wink of Stella doesn’t hurt either!! It’s nice that you can just see a bit of it in this photo.
The sentiment is from Clearly Besotted Stamps. I chose it because I felt that the dainty font complimented the dainty flowers well. A few Marshmallow sequins from Pretty Pink Posh are the perfect jewelry!
Please stop by to see the designs from the design team…they are beautiful!!

Oh my gosh, I am loving this…those daisies are so sweet, but that gingham paper….swooooon!
This is such a beautiful card – everything from the scalloped frame to the gingham to the gorgeous flowers is just so perfect together. And BTW, welcome to the addiction that is Copic Markers 🙂
I love the subtle, almost vintage feel to the colours you’ve used for your thoroughly modern card Shannon – just gorgeous!
I love how you brought all of these elements together and made a card that could be for just about anything! It truly looks like a beautiful spring day! Love it!
Oh, what a lovely card. I love the gingham and scalloped edges. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Joan! I appreciate your kind words so much!!
Every element is just perfect Shannon. The gingham, the delicate flowers, soft colors and scalloped edges all blend into a vintage style card with homespun charm. Beautiful!
Shannon, this is just beautiful! I love the gingham, the pretty flowers, and the lovely scalloped edge! Great mix of colors, too! Your card made me smile! XX
So pretty, Shannon! The delicate flowers combined with the gingham and scallops are like a walk in the country! Love the bit of sparkle, too.
Very pretty, Shannon! I love the scalloped edge. Great color choices…so cheery!
