Happy Sunday.
It’s the fabulous Christy’s turn to host our Paper Players challenge this week and it’s sketch week. I decided to go fairly clean and simple for my card and brought out a stencil set from Waffle Flower called The Pond.
Here’s a sneak peek:

And here’s Christy’s sketch:

I began by stenciling The Pond stencils onto Neenah 80# cardstock and then die cut them with the Postal Collage die. I chose the three images that I felt worked best together and adhered them to the card base. I then stamped the “thinking of you” sentiment as well as the round just a note sentiment.
I die cut the round sentiment using the matching die and then popped that up from my card base with foam dots.
Easy peasy!
Here’s my full card:

I hope you will join us and play along with Christy’s sketch. If you are looking for some inspiration you can find lots of it from our design team:
I’ll be back later in the week with another card. In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.

I love everything about this! Those swans are just beautiful and the little postage element ties it all togehter! Delightful!
The swans and water lilies are just gorgeous, Jaydee! I love the postage theme and how the colors pop on the crisp white card base. Thanks for making my sketch look amazing and I hope you have a fabulous week!
These little stamp collages you produce never fail to be amazing! The swans are so serene and the soft stencilling makes them look fabulous. The wee post mark is the perfect element for this sketch. As always, this is a real treat. 🙂
Oh I do love a little stencilling Jaydee – what a lovely trio! Those swans are just lovely and the postage frank makes a great accent too!
This is beautiful, peaceful and serene! This swan pond is so relaxing to look at, I really should use mine… It’s wonderful Jaydee!
Beautiful, Jaydee! These swans are so elegant and serene. Your stenciling is excellent. Of course, I LOVE the little round sentiment. What a great little accent! You can’t beat the Postal Collage dies.
Jaydee, this is such a pretty, serene card! I love the beautiful swans and lily pads. The postage stamps are perfect for this sketch. The little round sentiment is a perfect!
Beautiful CAS take on Christy’s sketch, Jaydee! The swan with the baby is so sweet and the whole design is tranquil and very pretty!
