The Paper Players 375 - Design Team Card

I'm looking forward to a new bunch of challenges at The Paper Players this year. Our first challenge will give you a bit of a giggle. It's a theme challenge: Punny Valentine.


This one is a real mixture of bits and pieces. The flowers are from Touches of Texture. The fabulous bumble bee is from Dragonfly Dreams. The lettering and the hearts are from Labeller Alphabet.


The hexagonal embossing adds some theme-related texture.


The bee has his wings glammed up with some gold Wink of Stella and his white bits with clear  Wink of Stella.



We'd love to have you join us at The Paper Players this week. Here's a reminder of the rules of the challenge.
  1. Create a NEW paper-craft project specifically for this challenge.
  2. Upload your creation to your blog with a link back to us.
  3. Please provide a direct link to the post featuring your challenge entry.
  4. Please link your card to no more than four challenges, total. Entries linked to more than 4 challenges, including ours, will be deleted without notification.

  1. I truly commend you for being able to photograph your gold foil so well! I struggle with foil and Mirrarcard. Honeybess is just perfect!

  5. Hey Jan, perfectly punny Valentine. I love the honeycomb background. Sadly as I am highly allergic to honey I'd never make this card..it's hard enough to try and convince people NOT to kill me..LOL. Cx
