Paper Players Challenge # 53


Paper Players has come with another quick and easy challenge. You may want to participate in this one.


This is my take on it although I did take a few liberties and changed the direction of the rectangles. I hope it still has all of the items necessary for this challenge.


I started with a white card base added a piece of DSP. I cut out three rectangle shapes to resemble candles and embossed them. Punched three flames from the Blossom Petals Builder and popped them up with dimensionals and added to the DSP.
I punched a 1 3/4" circle, stamped it using some PTI stamps added a ribbon folded in half behind the circle and attached it to the card. Finally added a sentiment to the bottom of the DSP.

Supplies used: Paper: 2011-2013 In Colors, Calypso Coral, Island Indigo, Wisteria Wonder and Daffodil Delight & DSP Play Date Inks: Island Indigo, Calypso Coral
Punch: Blossom Petals Builder, Circle Punch and PTI's double-ended banner
Sentiments: PTI's Tag-Its #1 Stamp Set

Thanks for looking and leaving a comment.
